Cap Sterilization
Sterilize Smarter: Small-Footprint Invertors for Cap & Seal Soaking
The Cap Sterilization Unit utilizes inverting solutions to position hot filled containers to soak the cap and seal. This application is used to sterilize/pasteurize the container caps, by using the heat of the fluid inside the container to kill bacteria on the cap. These twist blocks have a small footprint, compared to other systems that perform the same application.
Here are three ways to utilized Invertors for cap sterilization:
Dual Invertors
The first Invertor moves the containers over 180 degrees, releases it to the production line for a given length of time, then another Invertor turns it 180 degrees to the upright position for downstream processing.
Momentary Contact
Using one Invertor to rotate your product 120 degrees, which quickly soaks the cap in hot fluid and sets it upright to proceed down the production line.
All-In-One Unit
This system is for containers that need a full 360 degree turn in a small footprint for cap sterilization.
These inverting solutions are specifically designed for the use of Cap Sterilization and are outfitted with heat dissipation gaps to aid with leaks, airflow and visual inspection. Our Invertors can be manufactured with changeover hardware for removal and cleaning processes.
