Linear bottle sorter and unscrambler
Streamline your bottle feeding with high-speed sorting, unscrambling, and inspection, ensuring flawless operation and reduced manual intervention for diverse packaging lines.
Unscrambles, Inspects, and Cleans Bottles
The ILS-1 Linear Bottle Unscrambler and Inspection System from IMA Group is designed for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and personal care production lines. It features an integrated bulk hopper and ionized air rinse that ensure efficient bottle feeding and cleanliness. The system’s unique selling point is its tool-less changeover and absence of bottle change parts, which accommodate a vast array of bottle sizes and shapes with minimal downtime. Handling up to 300 bottles per minute, the ILS-1 easily adapts to existing conveyor designs, making it a versatile addition to any packaging line. The integrated inspection and rejection process automatically returns any upside-down or fallen bottles to the hopper, optimizing workflow. With digital indicators for changeover points and an optional advanced cleaning system, the machine meets GMP standards and operates with reduced energy consumption, ensuring sustainability and efficiency in demanding environments.
