Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to change over between different bottle sizes?
One of the key advantages of our unscramblers is the tool-less changeover design. Most adjustments can be made within 15–20 minutes using hand wheels and simple scale settings, making it ideal for lines that handle multiple products.
Does the machine damage or scratch the bottles during the sorting process?
No. We utilize high-quality, non-abrasive materials for the internal sorting discs and guide rails. The mechanical orientation is designed to be gentle, ensuring that even transparent or highly polished bottles remain scratch-free.
Can the unscrambler be integrated with an existing filling line?
Absolutely. Our unscramblers are designed as "plug-and-play" units with synchronized conveyor heights and speeds. They can be easily integrated with any automatic filler, capper, or labeler via a standard power and sensor interlock system.
What maintenance is required for the Automatic Bottle Unscrambler?
The machine is engineered for low maintenance. Regular tasks include basic cleaning of the hopper, checking the tension of the drive belts, and ensuring the sensors are free of dust. All internal bearings are high-quality and designed for long-term industrial use.
