available Advanced Automation & Control Systems Designed 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
Capabilities This 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 History The 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 & Versatility Configured 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), spumante Dairy & Nutritional: Dairy-based
drinks Food & Household: Oil, vinegar, detergents Its 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 Preparation Ensure
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 access Height: 2300 mm;
verify ceiling height and handling clearances Electrical Supply: 240
V, 50 A dedicated circuit Flooring: Level, load-bearing surface
suitable for approx. 2500 kg Line Interfaces: Alignment with
conveyors, cap feeding/sorting equipment, and upstream filling and
rinsing stations Safety Standards & Compliance Certification Safety
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.
