Fillers : flexibility is a matter of “wash-up” too

Manufacturing fillers dedicated to the chemical/cosmetic market means, first of all, understanding the requirements of the end-users. Nowadays Customers require flexible machines: this requirement is felt by both the big and the small users, generated by the universal reduction of the lots and by the simultaneous product differentiation.
In a previous post we already argued about the production of mixed cases.
Another aspect, responding to the demand of flexibility, refers to the quicker and more efficacious wash-up process, achieved thanks to an extreme simplification of the relevant parts of the project.
Today it is possible to fill, through the same machine, shampoos with different fragrances, hair conditioners, hair-comb creams, without any risk of contamination by product residuals.
As a matter of fact, in the Fillers produced by Ronchi the wash-up of the parts in direct contact with the product is achieved by a simple flow of the washing solution, that can be recycled by means of the customized CIP system. After the wash-up operation, the parts in contact with the product can be sterilized with disinfectant solution or with steam up to 130°C. (S.I.P.).
Moreover, the lack of a reservoir dramatically reduces the quantity of detergent (max 15 liters for the filler), thus allowing a remarkable saving if we consider the high costs bound to the disposal of washing solutions.
