Description

Used Rotary Filler–Capper Monoblock 24/8 for PET and HDPE Bottles – Overview

This second-hand rotary monoblock combines a 24-head volumetric piston filler with an 8-head pick-and-place spindle capper, engineered for PET and HDPE bottles up to 1 L. Designed for industrial packaging environments, it is a robust component for a used bottling line handling non-pressurized products such as detergents and liquid soap. The machine features a painted iron frame, stainless steel panels, and a fully enclosed protective hood with safety devices, offering reliable performance in high-throughput operations. CE marking and complete documentation support integration within beverage production and home & personal care lines where non-isobaric, non-aseptic filling is required.
