The ECOBLOC® K systems offer all the advantages of the rotary technology, even for production requirements from 1.000 up to 8.800 bottles/hour usually served by linear stretch-blow moulders, and are devoted to bottling lines for still water and milk (EV models) and edible oil (EM models).
Resulting from an innovative project characterized by the use of technologically advanced solutions inspired by Industry 4.0 and Internet of Things (IoT), the ECOBLOC® ERGON K series developed by SMI is composed by ultra-compact “combi” plants for the stretch-blow moulding, filling and capping of PET containers up to 3 L.
K = Kompact
The preform heating section is integrated to the stretch-blow moulding section in a single module.
An innovative and unique solution enabling to install the plant even in small bottling lines.
Eco-friendly processes
The stretch-blow moulding carousel is equipped with motorized stretch rods, controlled by electronic servo-drives, which do not require mechanical cams. This solution ensures: precise control of the stretch rod path, considerable energy savings and reduced mechanical intervention.
High performances
The stretch-blow moulding system is equipped with high-performance, low-dead volume valves which permit to reduce the pre-blowing and blowing times, thereby improving the machine efficiency and the quality of the bottles manufactured.
Precise filling
The filling technology makes use of high-efficiency valves controlled by flux-meters. Thanks to the electronic control of the operations, the filling process is carried out precisely and quickly. The ECOBLOC® K is also equipped with a capper for the application of screw or pressure caps.
ECOBLOC® K , the most compact combi in the world, boasts:
- overall dimensions reduced to a minimum;
- easier management and control of the production cycle;
- high technological content of the solutions inspired by Industry 4.0 and Internet of Things (IoT);
- electronic installation with transmission systems through brushless motors with an integrated digital servo-drive;
- low maintenance and operating costs;
- excellent quality/price ratio: the “combi” solution does not require the rinser, the conveyors between the stretch-blow moulder and the filler and the accumulation conveyors;
- low energy consumptions.
