661 EPV isobaric filling Microblock for Beer or Cider

IC Filling Systems has produced an improved Automatic rinser-filler-capper suitable for a variety of uses.

This high quality, high tech, automatic 661 bottling machine features new EPV Electro Pneumatic Filling Valves in two mainstream versions: a counter-pressure isobaric model for carbonated beverages, and a vacuum assisted gravity filler for still products. This is suitable for filling all sorts of beers and ciders.

Double pre-evacuation, 1,500 bph (330ml) capacity, and operated by a single operator

The brand new Microblock 661 EPV model hosts a number of major improvements on its specifications as it places itself as the innovative new generation system compared to similar all-in-one machines on the market.

1. It fills glass bottles, aluminium cans and aluminium bottles. Pretty much a first in the industry!
2. It delivers Low TPO levels thanks to a new high performance vacuum pump
3. A single high output filling tank ensures constant product filling levels at top speed
4. User friendly 7” colour HMI touchscreen control panel & PLC
5. Ethernet connection available as an option for remote technical diagnosis and assistance
6. Integral Brushless electronic cam operations for more accurate positioning of bottles or cans and faster servicing

The machine is suitable for filling beer, cider, wine (still or sparkling) or carbonated soft drinks, and it features our new EPV (Electro Pneumatic Valve) technology. The EPV valve allows total flexibility in adjusting the filling cycle by adapting the vacuum filling and degassing timings to the necessity of each different carbonated drink via a colour touchscreen HMI control panel.

Three independent sections driven by servo motors

The Microblock 661 EPV consists of a Linear Rinsing Section supplied with 6 rinsing nozzles, 6 Electro-pneumatic Isobaric Counterpressure filling valves and a single head Crowning Turret suitable for crown cork application on glass bottles. Other cap applications such as ROPP, screw cap, Mushroom cork, natural straight cork and plastic screw cap and can lids seamer are also possible, and available on request.

The machine is also equipped with a device to detect the bottle on the conveyor (no bottles on conveyor, no rinse) featuring a photocell which stops the machine and closes the rinser electro valve in case of missing bottles and a turret height adjustment system to accommodate different height bottles from 180 to 340mm.

The capper can close both 26mm and 29mm crown caps. The Microblock 661 EPV bottle filling machine is hygienic & easy to clean, made from stainless steel wherever possible.
