What is a Co.Mac keg line made up of
Opting to install a Co.Mac beer keg line means relying on machines designed to guarantee an impeccable cleaning and filling process.
In general, a line consists of cleaning and filling machines and line-completing machines:
- Cleaning and filling machines play a crucial role in duly ensuring that kegs are uniformly and hygienically cleaned and filled
- Line-completing machines, on the other hand, contribute to completing the filling process efficiently and accurately. These include:
-
- Start-and-end line machines, designed to initiate and terminate the production flow on the line. They may include devices for depalletizing kegs returning from the market and palletizing kegs at the end of the cleaning/filling line, conveyors, pallet stacking and destacking, pallet warehouses, etc.
-
- Keg washers, machines designed to clean the exterior of empty kegs before filling.
-
- Control stations, which monitor and regulate several critical parameters during the keg filling process, such as pressure, temperature, empty and full keg weight, macro or micro leaks.
-
- Keg turners, machines designed to flip or orient empty or full kegs during the packaging process.
