Flexible packaging line for beverage production
Streamline your beverage production with a flexible system capable of handling over 20 packaging combinations, ensuring seamless integration and high-speed operation for diverse product lines.
Handles Diverse Packaging Combinations Efficiently
The Krones Varioline offers a versatile solution for beverage, food, and packaging industries. This modular packaging line efficiently processes secondary and tertiary packaging, integrating seamlessly into an automated production setup. It uniquely combines multiple packaging technologies, from carton sleeves to multipacks, with a throughput of up to 100,000 containers per hour. The Varioline is characterized by its continuous container infeed, minimizing product stress with a synchronized gripper and container flow. Energy efficiency is achieved through servo-motor-controlled drives and an innovative braking energy recovery system, meeting IE4 efficiency standards. With options for ACOPOS multi drive systems and energy measurement tools, the Varioline optimizes energy usage and media efficiency. Engineered for easy integration, it supports various operations such as packing, sealing, and orientation. Built with sustainable practices, it uses lifetime-lubricated bearings and H1-greases, reducing maintenance. Suitable for products like carbonated soft drinks, flavored milk, and spirits, it can handle both solid and liquid types, supporting beverage producers in meeting diverse packaging demands with precision and reliability.
