Features

  • SYNCHRO is a compact integrated system to blow preforms and fill and cap bottles.
  • The blowing part is supplied by SIPA and the transfer and filling part is supplied by PROCOMAC: two leader companies in their field for a no-compromise solution.
  • Containers are produced with SIPA rotary blowers (SFR range) directly connected to Procomac filler.
  • SYNCHRO is the ideal solution for operations where reduced square footage is the primary requirement.
  • SYNCHRO is available in three versions: clean, ultra-clean or aseptic.

Advantages

  • SIPA's rotary blowers, SFR series:
    • innovative rotary concept (New patented solutions);
    • new Simple Transport Chain = no maintenance cost and time;
    • opto-electronic control of preforms' quality;
    • new Oven Structure and ventilation = no sensitivity to ambient conditions/quick process set-up;
    • vertical Blowing Mold 'Crocodile Opening', space saving with simplified transfer.
  • Synchronised bottle handling system with gripping starwheels:
    • mechanical cam activated grippers: reliable and accurate bottle transfer;
    • bottles are easily extracted from the grippers in case of jams. No need to act on the opening mechanism;
    • high resistance to wear even at high speeds;
    • different type of empty bottles can be handled without counter guides on the bottle panel area: no bottle changeover required;
    • cooling system for bottle bottom available as an option to bottle carbonated soft drinks;
    • electronic coupling between blow-molder and filler;
    • fume suction between blow-molder and filler: filling environment is separated from blow-molding environment;
  • space-saving design: only one operator needed for system control, easy installation of multiple SYNCHRO in the same facility.
  • Preform treatment with compressed air and aspiration:
    high protection from the presence of dust inside the preforms.
  • Preforms treatment with UV lamps:
    guaranteed hygiene in the bottle’s neck area.
  • Two guides for cap descending, with automatic shift system in case of jamming in order to avoid the immediate stop of the whole system: it is possible to empty out the oven and solve the jamming without any waste of preforms.
  • Contamination control technology:
    filling environment over-pressured with sterile air, intervention gloves and laminar flow of sterile air guarantee the hygiene of the filling environment.
