Volumetric filler for Pet bottle beverages

Experience seamless integration into your bottling line with this advanced volumetric filling system, designed to handle a diverse range of liquids with precision and speed. Perfect for operations demanding high flexibility, it delivers consistent results across varying product formulations and container types.

Fills and Caps Liquid Products Efficiently

The Flextronic series from SIPA is a range of modular electronic volumetric filling machines designed for diverse liquid bottling applications. Offering exceptional flexibility, it supports a broad spectrum of products including carbonated soft drinks, premium juices, and personal care items. The Flextronic platform distinguishes itself with its modular design, allowing the integration of various filling valves tailored to specific product requirements, such as the Flextronic C for carbonated beverages and the Flextronic W for high-value oils.

Operating on a unique electronic volumetric system, these fillers ensure precise and consistent dosing. The machines are equipped with stainless steel AISI 316L components for enhanced corrosion resistance, and are compatible with CIP systems for efficient cleaning. With an output range of up to 72,000 bottles per hour, depending on configuration, and the flexibility to handle different bottle sizes and neck diameters, these fillers seamlessly integrate into existing production lines.

Automation is maximized with PLC controls, allowing for reduced downtime during product changeovers and enhanced energy efficiency achieved through optimized motor control. The Flextronic’s ability to maintain product quality is augmented by optional features such as controlled contamination cabins and cap sterilizing units, ensuring compliance with stringent hygienic standards in sensitive product applications. For manufacturers seeking bespoke solutions, SIPA provides extensive engineering and customization support to adapt the Flextronic series to specific production needs.
