This Krones PET Triblock K is a beverage machine — a filling line or bottling system — designed to rinse, fill, and cap PET bottles in a single integrated block. Krones is a well-established German manufacturer of filling and packaging technology, supplying bottling plants, breweries, soft-drink producers, and mineral water operations worldwide with complete line solutions and individual processing machines.
The machine handles four bottle sizes: 0.5 litre, 1.0 litre, 1.5 litre, and 2.0 litre PET formats. It is configured for right-to-left running direction and is suitable for two product types: still water, filled at 13 °C, and carbonated soft drinks with a CO₂ content of 8.00 g/l, also at 13 °C. Throughput figures vary by product and bottle size. For still water at 1.5 litres, the machine is rated at 7,200 bottles per hour. For soft drinks at 0.5 litres, output rises to 8,900 bottles per hour, and for still water at 0.5 litres the figure reaches 11,500 bottles per hour.
The triblock comprises three stations. The rinser is a Variojet model () with 50 rinsing points arranged as a three-channel rinser. It features electric valve control and a centrifugal pump equipped with dry-run protection. The filler is a Volumetic VO-PET 040-113 unit with 40 filling stations on a 113 mm pitch, using neck handling, and is fitted with automatic CIP shut-off valves of Neumo manufacture along with manual external spraying of the filling valve area via an HDE unit with heating. The capper is a Krones screw capper, model SV , carrying 10 capping heads. It accommodates both standard plastic screw closures and sports caps (push/pull type), and the table plate is prepared to accept an additional capping head.
The machine operates on a 230/400 V, 50 Hz supply and is controlled by a Siemens S7 programmable logic controller. It is located in Germany and is described as available immediately.
