Automation & Control SystemsDesigned for demanding lines, the CA8/360
NG provides precise cap application and consistent torque across all
eight heads. An integrated control panel supports straightforward
operation, parameter adjustment, and process monitoring for capping
performance. Electrical requirements are 240 V, 50 A, enabling
installation in a wide range of facilities.Built-in safety features
protect operators and product integrity. Guarding and interlocked
access zones help maintain safe operation during production and
changeover. Manuals are available to facilitate setup, training, and
maintenance routines.Production Line Integration CapabilitiesThis
Zalkin rotary capper integrates seamlessly into a used bottling line
alongside upstream and downstream equipment such as rinsing, filling,
labeling, and inspection systems. It is well suited for PET beverage
applications and can be paired with existing conveyors, cap feeding
systems, and accumulation tables. While configured for PET, it can
operate within mixed-material facilities that may also process glass
or aluminum containers on other machines, supporting flexible
industrial packaging layouts.Format changeovers for 0.75 L PET bottles
are supported with appropriate change parts. Its throughput of up to
16,000 BPH makes it a strong fit for medium-to-high speed beverage
production environments.Machine Condition & Maintenance HistoryThe
unit is currently in storage as a second hand asset. Physical
inspection is recommended to verify completeness of change parts and
cap handling components prior to commissioning. The availability of
manuals supports preventative maintenance planning and efficient
restart on your line.Operational Performance & VersatilityConfigured
for plastic screw caps in 28 mm 1810 finish, the CA8/360 NG is
suitable for a wide range of liquid products when paired with the
appropriate rinsing, filling, and labeling equipment. Typical
applications include:Beverages: Water (still and sparkling), juice,
soft drinks, tea, beer, spirits, wine (still and sparkling),
spumanteDairy & Nutritional: Dairy-based drinksFood & Household: Oil,
vinegar, detergentsIts rotary architecture provides stable bottle
handling for 0.75 L PET containers, delivering consistent capping
quality at high speeds. The machine complements monoblocs or
standalone stations involved in rinsing, filling, capping, and
labeling within modern beverage production lines.Installation
Requirements & Site PreparationEnsure adequate space for installation,
operation, and maintenance access around the machine footprint:Machine
Footprint: 1200 x 1400 mm; recommended clearance on all sides for safe
accessHeight: 2300 mm; verify ceiling height and handling
clearancesElectrical Supply: 240 V, 50 A dedicated circuitFlooring:
Level, load-bearing surface suitable for approx. 2500 kgLine
Interfaces: Alignment with conveyors, cap feeding/sorting equipment,
and upstream filling and rinsing stationsSafety Standards & Compliance
CertificationSafety features are included to help meet common industry
practices. Guarding around the capping turret and access points
contributes to operator protection, while emergency-stop provisions
support safe intervention. When integrated into a complete used
bottling line, verify conformity with your siteâs safety
protocols and applicable regulations for industrial packaging.The
machineâs design supports hygienic operation for beverage
production, with procedures detailed in the supplied manuals to assist
in sanitation, changeovers, and routine inspections. Final compliance
and validation should be performed during commissioning in accordance
with your quality management and safety standards.
