Jetstream bottle drying

PROBLEM

There are 4 areas of concern with this type of packaging machine: 

  • Wet undersides of cans cause problems when laser or ink jet printing information such as; use by dates, filling dates and bar codes. 
  • Wet cans cause problems when packaged as ‘multi-packs’ as damage is caused to the packaging. 
  • On cans that remain wet for a period of time corrosion can occur which could cause rejection of whole deliveries by supermarket customers. 
  • Wet can surfaces cause Shrink Sleeves to stick and wrinkle causing cans to be rejected by quality control for re-sleeving.

SOLUTION

Installation of a Meech Jet Stream, Air Knife Drying System offers a low running cost solution for the drying of cans and bottles.  

High-volume High-pressure air effectively dries the product during conveying. The Meech AHU can be integrated into the process line and remotely controlled by the PLC
