Kosme Synchroblock monobloc blow moulder and filler

The Kosme Synchroblock is a cost-efficient monobloc comprising a blow moulder and a filler. Suitable for ratings of up to 8000 containers an hour, the machine combines Kosme’s stretch blow-moulding technology to its filling technology, without having to use any air conveyors. This provides the users with advantages including: reduced operating costs, energy and water consumption; improved layout; and reduced change-over times and maintenance costs. The machine can be used for products such as soft drinks, still water and beer.

One of the blow-moulding machines in the range is a rotary type rated at 2000 containers per hour. It is versatile enough to produce containers sizes ranging from 0.1 to 3.0 L. For this purpose, access to the machine has been specially simplified, so that the moulds can be changed swiftly and easily. There is an option for fitting the blow moulder with an air-recycling system.

The containers are passed via a transfer table, featuring transfer starwheels and base cooling by cold water spraying, to the isobaric filler, whose pneumatically controlled VKP filling valves ensure accurate, foam-free filling. These filling valves are standard components from Krones’ modularised system, and are suitable for the lower output segment. Particular attention has been paid to optimising the machine in terms of hygiene and microbiological safety.
