seeking seamless integration within a used bottling line. Manufacturer
/ Model: Bertolaso DELTA 509 R Year of manufacture: 1995 Application:
Straight cork insertion for glass bottles No. of heads: 9 Nominal
speed: up to 14,500 bph (typical throughput 3,500–14,500 bph
depending on format) Cap type and size: Natural or synthetic straight
corks, 22–26 mm diameter, 35–50 mm height Bottle formats: 0.06 L,
0.375 L, 0.75 L Bottle dimensions: Diameter 50–140 mm (±2 mm);
Height 180–370 mm (±10 mm) Container types: Glass Electrical
supply: 380 V, 50 Hz, 3 kW, three-phase Machine weight: 2,080 kg
Condition: In storage, used industrial packaging equipment Advanced
Automation & Control Systems This DELTA 509 R features a proven rotary
turret with precise mechanical guidance for consistent cork
compression and insertion depth. An operator-friendly control panel
supports adjustments to production speed and bottle height, helping
maintain stable operation across multiple formats. Integrated sensors
for bottle presence and closure handling contribute to line efficiency
and reduce stoppages. Adjustable cork compression and insertion
parameters for product quality Operator control panel for speed,
height setting, and routine checks Electrical configuration: 380 V /
50 Hz / 3 kW Standard safety interlocks on access doors and emergency
stop circuits Production Line Integration Capabilities Engineered for
seamless downstream and upstream connectivity, the machine integrates
efficiently after rinsing and filling and before labeling, inspection,
and case packing. Its format range and bottle height window make it
ideal for modernization or expansion of a used bottling line without
sacrificing throughput. Synchronizes with rinsing, filling, capping,
and labeling modules in wine lines Compatible with downstream
foil/capsule application and labeling systems Suitable for glass
bottle handling; line-level compatibility with PET or aluminum
containers depends on adjacent equipment Quick mechanical format
adjustments within specified diameter and height tolerances Machine
Condition & Maintenance History The unit is currently in storage and
available as a second hand, pre-owned machine. As with any used
bottling equipment, commissioning should include routine preventive
maintenance and replacement of wear parts as needed to align with
production targets. Visual inspection and test runs can be arranged to
verify mechanical integrity and performance within the stated
specifications. Operational Performance & Versatility With up to
14,500 bph capability, the 9-head DELTA 509 R provides consistent cork
insertion for a range of premium beverages. It is particularly suited
to still wine, fortified wine, and compatible spirits that utilize
straight corks within the specified 22–26 mm diameter and 35–50 mm
height. The broad bottle dimension window supports small-format
samples (0.06 L), half bottles (0.375 L), and standard 0.75 L bottles
used widely in beverage production. Stable, uniform corking quality
for brand protection and product integrity Works seamlessly alongside
filling and labeling operations on glass lines Designed for precision
handling to minimize cork dust and insertion variability Supports
high-speed industrial packaging environments Installation Requirements
& Site Preparation Ensure appropriate floor loading for the 2,080 kg
machine and allocate straight conveyor infeed/outfeed for smooth
integration. Provide the specified three-phase electrical supply and
plan service access around the machine’s perimeter for changeovers
and routine maintenance. Confirm line layout and bottle flow to fit
upstream rinsing and filling and downstream labeling and packing
stations. Electrical: 380 V, 50 Hz, 3 kW (three-phase) Adequate floor
load capacity and stable, level surface Clean, controlled environment
suitable for beverage processing Provision for operator access and
routine sanitation procedures Safety Standards & Compliance
Certification The DELTA 509 R is equipped with fixed and interlocked
guards at critical points, emergency stop push-buttons, and protective
enclosures around moving parts to support safe operation. Good
manufacturing practices for food-grade environments are supported by
cleanable contact areas and orderly cable and component routing. As
part of commissioning, a site-specific risk assessment and validation
against current safety regulations and HACCP requirements is
recommended to align the machine with your plant’s compliance
framework.
