2017 - CFT Aluminum CAN L Beverage Machine

About this machine

This used CFT beverage canning line is a complete, integrated system designed to fill, seal, inspect, and package carbonated or still drinks into aluminium cans. CFT — Cima-Frigo Technology — is an Italian manufacturer well established in the liquid food and beverage processing sector, producing filling, seaming, and packaging equipment for breweries, soft-drink producers, and other beverage operations worldwide. The line is compatible with Lid 200 and Lid 202 can ends and is rated to a maximum throughput of 12,000 cans per hour.

The line begins with a CFT 101 depalletizer capable of feeding empty cans at up to 14,000 cans per hour, giving the infeed sufficient headroom to sustain the downstream rated speed without becoming a bottleneck. Carbonation and mixing is handled by a SYM CAR A5 saturator and mixer, which blends and carbonates the product before it reaches the filler. The filling station is a Master-Can Tronic RS24/4, a 24-valve rotary can filler that provides the filling precision expected in high-speed beverage production. Seaming is performed by a CFT 3000/4 four-head seamer, which double-seams the Lid 200 or 202 end onto the filled can to create a hermetic seal.

After seaming, filled cans pass through a Heuft Basic X-ray inspection unit that performs level checking and lid control, automatically detecting underfilled, overfilled, or improperly seamed cans before they progress further down the line. An CFT Air Knife drying system removes surface moisture from the can exterior, preparing it for coding. A Videojet 1520 ink-jet coder then applies date, batch, or other variable print directly to each can.

End-of-line packaging is managed by a CFT tray shrink packer configured to handle two common retail formats: a 2×3 arrangement producing six-packs and a 4×3 arrangement producing twelve-packs. This flexibility allows the line to switch between standard consumer pack sizes without requiring a separate machine.

The line was manufactured in 2017, is offered in used condition, and is currently located in Georgia.
