Bottle Unscrambler: Complete Buying Guide 2024

Bottle unscramblers play an increasingly important role in the pharmaceutical, health care, food and other industries. It can automatically sort and arrange messy bottles into neat queues, providing efficient and stable material supply for subsequent packaging, filling and other processes, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing labor costs, and ensuring product quality.

What is a bottle unscrambler?

Bottle unscramblers are an automated mechanical equipment designed specifically for sorting bottles. Its core function is to effectively sort, sort and convey the messy bottles on the production line, whether they are placed upright, inverted or overlapping each other, through a series of well-designed mechanisms.

This process involves not only the precise identification and orientation of the bottles, but also their smooth handling to ensure that no damage is caused during the entire processing process. Finally, the sorted bottles will be neatly arranged on the conveyor belt to form an orderly queue, thereby providing an efficient and stable material supply flow for subsequent links in the production process, such as packaging, filling and labeling.

Where are bottle unscramblers used?

Bottle unscramblers play an extremely important role in modern industrial production. They are widely used in pharmaceutical, health care, food, cosmetics and other industries. In these industries, bottle unscramblers play a vital role, especially in bottling production lines. They can not only operate independently, but also work closely with other production equipment such as filling machines, sealing machines, labeling machines, etc. to jointly build an efficient and smooth production system. By realizing the automatic conveying of bottles, bottle unscramblers greatly improve the degree of automation of the production line, reduce manual intervention, and thus significantly improve production efficiency.

How useful are bottle unscramblers?

The emergence of bottle unscramblers has brought great changes and benefits to bottling production lines:

1. Improve production efficiency: Bottle unscramblers can automatically sort and arrange messy bottles, avoiding the inefficiency and errors of manual operation, thereby greatly improving production efficiency.

2. Reduce labor costs: The use of bottle unscramblers can replace manual sorting and conveying of bottles, thereby reducing labor costs and improving corporate benefits.

3. Ensure product quality: The bottle unscrambler can automatically remove unqualified bottles and ensure that the bottles are arranged neatly, thereby ensuring product quality and avoiding product quality problems caused by bottle problems.

4. Improve production safety: The use of the bottle unscrambler reduces the risk of manual operation, thereby improving production safety.

What is the composition of the bottle unscrambler?

The bottle unscrambler usually consists of the following parts:

(1) Material storage and lifting mechanism

1. Large-capacity storage bin: Equipped with an ultra-large capacity design, it reduces the number of times to add materials and improves production continuity.

2. Intelligent monitoring: Using electric eye technology to monitor the status of the bin in real time, automatically alarm when the material is insufficient, and ensure worry-free production.

3. Automated operation: The storage bin door can be automatically opened and closed by the control system, realizing convenient material addition, and it also has dust-proof function.

4. Convenient cleaning: The bottom visible window design is easy to clean and maintain.

5. High-standard material: AISI304 stainless steel material is selected, which fully complies with GMP standards.

6. Safe transportation: Engineering plastic conveyor belt ensures safe and stable material transportation process.

(2) Bottle unscrambling and conveying mechanism

1. Dynamic balance: Use electronic induction monitoring technology to adjust the number of bottles in the bottle unscrambling tray in real time to ensure stable and continuous bottle output.

2. Efficient bottle sorting: Use single star wheel bottle sorting technology, fast conveying speed, minimal bottle flipping, and reduced noise.

3. Anti-interference design: The bottle stirring component effectively removes excess materials on the main star wheel to prevent interference with the sorted bottles.

4. Bottle turning device: The intelligent bottle turning mechanism can easily turn the inverted bottle to the bottle mouth facing up, improving production efficiency.

(3) Static elimination device (optional)

1. Electrostatic dust removal: Use the principle of electrostatic dust removal to eliminate the static electricity of the bottle through the ions generated by the high-voltage charging needle.

2. Debris removal: The vacuum negative pressure method sucks away the suspended matter or dust in the bottle to ensure the cleanliness of the bottle and improve product quality.

What types of bottle unscramblers are there?

According to the production speed and applicable bottle type, the automatic bottle unscrambler can be divided into different models, for example:

1.LFU-15FC: Maximum production speed 150 bottles/minute, suitable for square bottles 25~100mm and round bottles φ25~φ100mm.
