Basic cager to facilitate manual crate filling. The operator works at waist-level to eliminate repetitive bending and increase filling speed. Compared to jumblestacking, layered stacking increases crate capacity by up to 20%.

Technical description 

• Up to 2 layers per minute with 2 trained workers
• For rectangular Layer-in-Divider crates with false bottom
• Lifting jack driven by hydraulic cylinder
• Manual divider placement
• Manual layer formation
• Built in stainless steel AISI 304
• Accepts standard-size retort cages for diameter 1200–1400 static retorts
  and diameter 1200–1800 rotary retorts.

Optional rectangular or rotary receiving table, or receiving belt in steel mesh with gear reducer for speed setting

Semiautomatic decager designed to balance speed and cost of the process. Suitable for most small and medium production lines with round containers such as cans and jars. The worker is assisted by various devices to decrease filling time and reduce fatigue caused by repetitive movements.

Note: The data indicated in the table are subject to change.

Technical description

• For containers suitable for push-loading - symmetrical, flat sides, no protruding edges, and medium width-height ratio (tall+thin cans are unstable; flat+wide cans overlap)
• Up to 2 layers per minute with 1 trained worker
• For rectangular Layer-in-Divider crates with false bottom
• Belt in stainless steel (for glass) or plastic (for metal cans)
• Adjustable side rails for different can diameters
• Adjustable gear reducer to vary belt speed
• Photo-eye to stop the lifter at the precise height
• Accepts standard-size retort cages for diameter 1200-1400 mm static retorts and diameter 1200-1800 mm rotary retorts
• Built in stainless steel AISI 304

Operation

• (1) The worker inserts the full crates manually and activates the lifter to bring the layer level with the belt.
• (2) The worker starts the Push Bar (1), that pushes the layer of cans from the crate to the belt.
• (3) The Belt (2), made of non-grip material, receives the cans and queues them for the line.
• (4) The worker removes the divider manually and repeats the procedure until the crate is empty.
• (5) The worker manually removes the empty crate, inserts a full crate and repeats.

Technical description

• For containers suitable for push-loading - symmetrical, flat sides, no protruding edges, and medium width-height ratio (tall+thin cans are unstable; flat+wide cans overlap)
• Up to 2 layers per minute with 1 trained worker
• For rectangular Layer-in-Divider crates with false bottom
• Receiving belt in stainless steel (for glass) or plastic (for metal cans); rubber pushing belt for best traction
• Adjustable side rails for different can diameters
• Adjustable gear reducer to vary belt speed
• Photo-eye to stop the lifter at the precise height
• Accepts standard-size Panini crates for diameter 12001400 static retorts and diameter 1200-1800 rotary retorts
• Built in stainless steel AISI 304

Operation

• (1) The Receiving Belt (1) receives cans from the line. Made of non-gripping material so round containers align themselves naturally in a staggered formation.
• (2) The worker places a divider by hand and actuates the lifter to bring the layer to the level of the belt.
• (3) When cans are enough to form a layer, the worker activates the Pushing Belt (2), that pushes the layer forward onto into the crate.
• (4) The Leading Bar (4) leads the cans as they move forward to keep the layer compact.
• (5) The Blocker (3) presses down on the last row of cans remaining on the belt, so they don't fall off when the lifter is lowered.
• (6) The worker repeats the procedure until the crate is completely full, manually removes the full crate, inserts an empty crate and repeats.

Sterilization retort for canned food products, designed for minimal capital outlay. The retort processes tin cans in saturated steam (no air overpressure during holding). Flood cooling with bottom-inflow/top-outflow (with air overpressure) guarantees good cooling without needing a circulation pump. The retort has the basic kit of control valves plus a bleeder vent to guarantee maximum temperature uniformity, in accordance with US FDA retort regulations. 

Technical description

• Direct steam heating
• Bleeder vent guarantees temperature uniformity during sterilization
• Flood cooling
• Compressed air overpressure during cooling only
• Insulated pressure shell with sheet aluminum cladding

Valve kit:

The Universal-A model is designed for a basic set of valves needed to control a saturated steam sterilization process:

1. Safety

 2. Vent x 2

3. Air

4. Steam x 2

5. Water

6. Drain

7.-

8.-

9. Bleeder vent

One thermocouple probe copper/constantan for F0* temperature measure.

No. 1 accessories group for inserting the thermocouple in the product container while maintaining the integrity of the seal and allowing desired depth.

* - F0 the algorithm was first introduced in 1968 in the international practice of food industry, and proposed by FDA in 1976 for the pharmaceutical sterilization of Large Volume Parenterals: it is now officially included in most indsustries.
