Aseptic bag filler for bulk containers
To ensure product sterility and extend shelf life, industries often struggle with contamination and spoilage during the filling process, especially when handling products like tomato paste and concentrated juices.
Provide secure, sterile filling for bulk containers
The FranRica ABF1200 Aseptic Bag Filler from JBT is designed to offer high sterility and productivity when filling bulk aseptic bag-in-box and bag-in-drum containers. Initially developed to reduce spoilage in the California tomato industry, this technology has become a worldwide standard. It features an automatic heat seal fitment system that eliminates the risk of post-filling contamination. The system can fill 300-gallon bins or 55-gallon drums at a rate of up to 20 bins per hour. Its chemical-free operation enhances cost efficiency, while a steam barrier around product handling areas replaces the need for positive product pressure. It is equipped to handle a variety of products, including vegetables, fruits, dairy, purees, particulates, concentrates, sauces, soups, and tomato paste. The hydraulic actuation system enables fast, automated operation, making it a practical solution for maintaining sterility for up to 100 days.
