It is the new filler realized by Ronchi ‘EXACTA/R 18/6S’, which incorporates a capping station too. The new machine ensures high performances in terms of sanitization and wash-up of an absolute technological prominence, unique in the industry of the automatic machinery destined to the packaging industry.

It has been introduced at worldwide level for the first time at the Hispack Show held in Barcelona on last May and proposed on the American continent at the Las Vegas Pack-Expo show in October. A breakthrough which encountered the unanimous interest of the industry operators.

Distinctive features:

• Inclined base frame surface to ensure its accurate clearing
• CIP/SIP clearing system
• Automatic washing system in a closed circuit, managed from the operator’s panel
• Reduction of waste residual generated by the washing and/or product change operations
• Reduction of washing time and improvement of its efficiency
• Automatic emptying of the machine by removal of all bottles inside before a washing and/or product change operation

Thanks to its peculiar features, it is particularly recommended for all those sectors whereas a very frequent format change over is necessary: chemical, cosmetic, household industries.

Perfumed, utilized as a disinfectant and cleaning agent for surfaces, or as a whitener for laundry, bleach is certainly among the most versatile products utilized in our homes.

Since some time concentrated detergents are quite widespread in Europe and in USA.

The lighter bottle, reduced in its dimensions,  results to be easier to use by the consumer.

Not only:  compact detergent  operates in a major environmental sustainability by reducing packaging wastes.

Since  2006,  Packaging Scorecard in  Wal-Mart has started a promotional campaign in favour of concentrated detergents, convincing the market leaders to developing the concentrated versions of the most renowned products.

Unilever  have launched the  “Small & Mighty” bottle, the formulation of which requires  64%  water less than the traditional version and, consequently, a smaller bottle. The product has quickly conquered the marketplace and the bottle has then been adopted for other brands.

On the wave of this success Procter & Gamble too  have  more recently proposed the most famous  Tide, the detergent launched in  1946,  now in concentrated version. It is available for sale since 2008 in USA and Canada.

Needless to say, the industry of the machinery for the filling and conditioning of concentrated detergents has introduced new technologies aimed at supporting the tendencies of the market.  Just think about the extreme filling accuracy guaranteed by the flow-meter technology.

Home sweet home. Sure, but it must be kept clean! So, why not making this task easier? The new trend in terms of household detergents is dictated by foams sprayed out through trigger pumps. Foams ensure the utmost efficacy in those points where dust is difficult. Trigger pumps are easy-to-use and spray the product out even if the bottle is in unusual position, thus helping to reach the most hidden and difficult corners.

To respond to this growing demand from the market, Ronchi has realized  capping/inserting machines specifically purposed to handle trigger pumps, allowing to screw-on the ring-nut through the capper itself. Trigger pumps cappers/inserters realized by Ronchi can reach a production speed of 350 pieces per minute.

The packaging industry has undergone through the years a growing demand for more and more advanced technological solutions. Mainly the big stores, bound to the cosmetic and chemical products, keep on looking for such filling and capping solutions capable to respond to their diversified requirements in an extremely flexible way.

Ronchi has realized a new family of Fillers that, thanks to a patented device, allow the in-line mixing of perfumes / addictives to the basic product through the same working cycle.

This system contemplates to feed all filling stations with the same basic product to which the different colorations or fragrances are added in correspondence of each single filling station according to the specific Customer’s requirement. Every bottle can then be personalized during the capping operation as well.

The mixed bottles are so  ready to be directly case-packed and sent to the stores.
