FEATURES:
All
the mentioned machine models are entirely clad in AISI 304 stainless steel as
well as the supports on the machine base and the centre column. All of the
materials and the techniques used in the construction of the machine are
guaranteed to provide the most reliable and durable piece of equipment.
Commercial
materials used in construction of pneumatic. electrical and mechanical
components are produced exclusively by leading international firms so as to
provide easy representation worldwide.
Cork
sorting is one way directional and is performed by means of a special
sorting unit (supplied separately) which sorts through one or two chutes
depending upon the machine's production speed. The corks drop into the pockets
of the horizontal transfer disc which by means of an exclusive cork-guide system
brings them to the tangential in feed point of the chutes and the corking
heads.
This
cork sorting system is a mechanical design and provides high productivity and
reliability by means of a safety clutch and generates a very low noise level
below 80 db.
The
machine is also equipped with special "no bottle no cork" safety
devices which prevents the cork from arriving at the corking head if no bottle
is present.
The
compression jaws are easily and quickly removed due to its special design system
aimed at low maintenance. The jaws are designed with a gradually tapered profile
allowing a progressive compression on the cork without affecting its molecular
characteristics.
The
cork is held inside the corking head without the aid of any support lever,
consequently avoiding inconvenient and damaging interference with the
containers. The heart of the machine, or the four jaw compression cam is
constructed of hardened steel in order to preserve its operation. If the machine
is used for its specifications and design, slow progressive compression of the
cork at about 100° is obtained.
This
function is accompanied by the progressive punch action which keeps the cork
inside the tapered jaw section until the corks maximum point of compression when
at 30° it is inserted into the bottle mouth.
Cork
handling allows quick recovery of the molecules consequently ensuring a perfect
seal for the internal pressure of the product. In order to ensure and facilitate
overall maintenance on the machine, the lubrication points are concentrated in
two areas: one is located on the side panel of the base support and the second
is located on the central corking turret.
A
central lubrication system can be provided upon request for smaller machines up
to 10 heads which it is standard on models with more than 10 heads. To further
facilitate machine operation the bottle lift pistons which are made in stainless
steel AISI 304 with internal bronze sleeves and internal protection against
external fluid penetration, run on a cam immersed in an oil bath thus ensuring a
perfect lubrication which eliminates the need to check oil levels. The control
panel which is usually located opposite the bottle in feed screw is positioned where
it cannot , even accidentally, come in contact with the production and washing
liquids.
All
of the controls feature low voltage wiring. The machine's base, housing the
drive units and gears is as standard fitted with two large inspection hatches,
allowing plenty of room for maintenance operations. The safety guards consisting
of sturdy stainless steel frame and Plexiglas panels, are fitted as standard
with two doors, controlled by a double micro switch which stops the machine when
any door is opened.
