Mad Giant’s New Beer Bottling Machine from IC Filling Systems

Mad Giant’s New Beer Bottling Machine

Mad Giant Brewery in Johannesburg, South Africa has received the flexible 5-5-1 Microblock EPV.

The automatic Rinsing Filling Capping machine for glass beer bottles with a speed of up to 1,000 bph for 330 ml (12 oz) will also be presented at BeerX, Shefield & Brew Expo, Philadelphia in the coming months.

The EPV valve allows total flexibility in adjusting the filling cycle & pre-evacuation vacuum to the necessity of each product you bottle.

The bottling machine is also equipped with a device for the detection of the bottle on the conveyor (no bottles on conveyor, no rinse) featuring a photocell which stops the machine and closes the rinser electro valve in case of missing bottles and a turret height adjustment system to accommodate different height bottles.

The flexibility offered is a great way to future proof your business for bottling new products in glass bottles.

The New 551 EPV (Electro Pneumatic Valve) shortens filling times compared with mechanical valves & is suitable for filling beer, cider, sparkling wine and carbonated drinks.

Microblock 551 EPV consists of a Rinsing Section supplied with 5 rinsing nozzles, 5 Electro-pneumatic Isobaric Counterpressure filling valves and a single head Crowning Turret suitable for crown cork application on glass bottles.
