PACE M300 PHARMA LINE BOTTLE UNSCRAMBLER WITH IONIZED AIR RINSE

A Used Pace M400SSD Empty Bottle Unscrambler With Empty Bottle Feed Elevator is a machine that automatically sorts and feeds bottles onto a conveyor belt for further processing. Bottle unscramblers are a key part of the bottling process and can handle a variety of containers, including HDPE, PET and many different shapes including round, oval, square and rectangle. Bottle unscramblers can have integrated processing stations for air rinsing, desiccant insertion, bottle coding, inspecting, rejecting, bottle labeling, and more. Bottles leave the unscrambler and go on to be filled, capped, labeled, packed and then palletized. A Pace empty bottle unscrambler is an automated machine that receives bulk, randomly oriented empty bottles from a hopper, sorts them into a consistent, upright orientation, and feeds them onto a conveyor for subsequent processing on a filling line. It uses a rotating disk and centrifugal force to spin bottles into aligned positions, with speeds up to 350 bottles per minute, and can handle various shapes, materials, and sizes of plastic bottles. How it works: Bottle Loading: Empty bottles are loaded into a stainless steel hopper, which acts as a feeder and elevator to supply the unscrambler with a consistent flow of bottles. Sorting and Orientation: The bottles are then discharged into the unscrambler’s bowl. A rotating disk spins the bottles using centrifugal force, placing them into neck-leading or base-leading positions. Bottle Alignment: A rotary bumper redirects misaligned bottles back to the spinning disk for further sorting. 4. Infeed and Hooking: Belts then capture the bottles, moving them to a hook mechanism that further aligns neck-leading bottles into a base-leading position. 5. Discharge: Finally, the unscrambled bottles are stabilized in an upright position and discharged onto the customer’s conveyor belt, ready for filling, capping, and other downstream processes. Key features and capabilities: Versatility: Can handle various shapes (round, square, oval, rectangular), sizes (from 0.33 oz to 1.3 gallons), and materials (PET, HDPE, PP, PS, PVC) of plastic bottles. Speed: Capable of processing bottles at speeds of up to 350 bottles per minute. Components: Typically includes a stainless steel construction, a rotary sorter feed bowl, operator interface controls, and a hopper-elevator system for feeding. Integrated Systems: Can also be equipped with integrated components for ionized air rinsing and other pre-processing steps.
