Automatic double-line packaging machine for semi-dense food products in jars, designed for packaging yoghurt, sauces, jams and similar products. The Rotary 3000 is a compact and reliable machine, with doses from 50 to 1000 g, including fruit pieces, in plastic or paper jars. With a capacity of approximately 3000 jars/hour thanks to its double packaging line, it features automatic jar loading, a dosing unit and a discharge conveyor; size changeover takes just a few minutes.
Machine type
The Rotary 3000 is an automatic packaging machine for semi-dense foodstuff in plastic jars, with a double packaging line: the packaging cycle runs without manual intervention and the operator simply supervises and controls production through the PLC.
It is suitable for packaging yoghurt, sauces, jams and similar products, in plastic or paper jars.
Being an automatic machine, it can be connected to the customer’s existing plant for loading the jars.
Features
The Rotary 3000 works in 4 stages, carried out in sequence within the same machine: container loading, dosing, capping and unloading.
Container loading
Jars are loaded automatically from the magazine through a dedicated double-handling destacker.
Dosing
Main product dosing ranges from 50 to 1000 g, for a wide range of products, in plastic or paper jars; size changeover takes just a few minutes. Hourly capacity is approximately 3000 jars/hour (actual capacity depends on the characteristics of the product and packaging).
It also allows dosing of fruit pieces. The dosing unit is complete with a jar presence sensor, a product hopper and process valves.
Capping
The jar can be closed with a preformed aluminium or plastic lid or with an aluminium or plastic coil, thanks to the cut/weld device, designed and manufactured by Pasin SRL.
Application and closure are fully automatic.
Unloading
Jars are unloaded onto the dedicated conveyor belt, on which end-of-line equipment can be installed.
Cleaning solutions
The Rotary 3000 has a complete cleaning and sterilisation system, with CIP and SIP.
CIP (cleaning in place): all parts in contact with food can be CIP-cleaned, and the recirculation system, of new design, ensures maximum simplicity and efficiency. The PLC has an automatic washing programme already installed, which can be modified according to the customer’s needs.
SIP (sterilisation in place): before production, the entire dosing system is sterilised with steam. The device is equipped with filters, pressure gauges, valves and everything needed for perfect sterilisation.
A tank for connecting the machine to the customer’s CIP is available as an option.
Industry 4.0
The PLC is also available in a touch-screen version, which makes the entire machine Industry 4.0 certifiable. Remote support is included.
High Clean
High Clean solutions are available as options for more hygienic packaging: a HEPA filter, which injects sterile air and creates a sanitised environment, and a UV-C lamp for sterilising the packaging materials.
Accessories and options available
- Minifiller for fruit puree, to obtain a “double-flavour” jar; suitable for very viscous products and/or products with pieces, product hopper included;
- Tank for connection to the customer’s CIP;
- Rotating table in stainless steel for collecting filled jars;
- Snap-on lid: automatic device for applying a pressure plastic cover;
- HEPA filter to inject sterile air and create a sanitised environment;
- UV-C lamp for sterilising the packaging materials;
- Inkjet date coder installed on the conveyor belt, for printing expiry date, lot and more, complete with its own programming software.
What is it suitable for?
The Rotary 3000 is recommended for medium-scale production, up to approximately 3000 jars per hour, in dairies and food companies that want to package yoghurt, sauces, jams and other semi-dense products in jars.
It is a compact, solid and easy-to-use machine, with size changeover in a few minutes.
