Marking
Our production lines can be equipped with a large range of labeling and marking technologies..
Either as stand-alone marking/labeling machines or integrated into a multi-function filling/capping machine
Customizable to meet specific requirements for product identification, traceability, or branding (inkjet printing, thermal transfer, laser marking …)
Can be combined with state-of-the-art quality control (vision systems, character recognition…)
Full integration into the PKB automation process
Can be combined with Handling processes (robotics, manipulation, transfer)
Handling
PKB offers handling solutions both upstream and downstream of the filling and capping stages. Handling technologies are designed to optimize floor space and increase production line efficiency..
PKB offers handling solutions that are designed for the needs of a given market – from small contract packers to large fully-automated production lines
Handling solutions are designed to integrate perfectly with other PKB functions, optimizing overall footprint, cost, speed, and accuracy
The latest technology such as automated guided vehicles and conveyor systems ensure precise and accurate movement of products
CIP/COP Cleaning Modes
CIP (Clean In Place) and COP (Clean Out of Place) are distinct cleaning modes for the machines. They offer efficient cleaning strategies based on the machine’s configuration and customer’s needs..
In the case of CIP (Clean In Place), the machine can be cleaned without having to disassemble the filling circuit (nozzles, pipes, tanks, etc.).
To achieve this, the machine is equipped with specific equipment and a configurable control program for these devices. Of course, the workshops must be adapted for this type of cleaning.
Workshop adjustments are necessary to facilitate CIP cleaning.
Provisions for cold water, hot water, detergent inlets, and drains near the machine.
Streamlines cleaning process by avoiding circuit disassembly.
Tailored cleaning solutions for various production setups.
Efficient maintenance strategies to ensure machine hygiene.
Adaptability to different cleaning strategies and facility layouts.
Components are taken to a designated cleaning area within the customer’s facility.
Centralizes cleaning process for all lines.
Delicate parts of the filling circuit must be handled with care during disassembly and reassembly.
