Container drying system for packaging lines
In packaging lines, it is crucial to ensure containers are free from water droplets before labeling or further processing. Water on containers can cause labels to fail to adhere properly or equipment to malfunction, leading to production inefficiencies and increased downtime.
Dries multiple container types effectively
The Ventilo Container Dryers by GEA offer a compact and highly efficient solution for removing water droplets from the cap, neck, and body of containers. This system caters to bottles and jars made from glass, PET, or HDPE, as well as cans. Due to its modular design, the dryer can be easily integrated into existing packaging lines. The adjustable air knives, positioned as close as 1 mm to the container, ensure thorough drying. Additionally, the system’s lower structure includes a drip tray with a central hole to collect water, preventing floor spillage. The Ventilo system can be powered directly by the line electrical cabinet or an independent unit, making it versatile for various production needs.
