Aseptic PET Bottle filling machine KHS Innosept Absofill / ABF 710/03

On behalf of our client, we are selling this Innosept Asbofill ABF (Aseptic Bottle Filler), 10-Lane, PET bottle filling machine which is designed for the aseptic filling of liquid, non-carbonated, microbiologically sensitive high- and low acid products into prefabricated plastic bottles. The client bought a new and bigger aseptic filling machine for extension of his production capacities. This current machine will be available in January 2026. Dismantling and removal out of the factory will be done by the dairy factory.

The machine was used the last 8 years to fill protein shakes and milk related drinks (cold fill) at the current factory. Before it was used for fruit juices. Shell of life of the current products: 9 months guaranteed. Capacity: 12.000 bottles/h @ 250 - 1.000 ml, 10.000 bottles/h @ till 1.500 ml and 8.000 bottles/h @ till 2.000 ml. Filling accurancy: ± 2 ml (filling volume <1.000 ml) and ± 0,2% (filling volume >1.000 ml). Bottle neck nominal diameter: 38 mm. With the same nominal bottle neck diameter, different bottle shapes and sizes can be filled. Support ring diameter: 43 mm. Production times: for low acid products, 24 hours between 2 cleaning cycles and for high acid products, 40 hours between 2 cleaning cycles. The filled bottles are closed with an aseptic plastic screw cap / snap cap (with Single Use Plastic / SUP addition) before being discharged from the machine. Power: 400 V - 3 Ph - 50 Hz - ± 125 kW. Compressed air: 20-40 m3/h @ 8 bar. Peroxide (H2O2): <5 liter/h with 1.000 ml bottles. Steam: 150 kg/h @ 6 bar / 150 °C. Water: 12 m3/h. Stainless steel control panel with Siemens S7 PLC and touch screen operation panels. Production hours: 62.371 hour. Total dimensions filler: ± 900 x 240 x 600 cm. Weight:± 9.500 kg.

The Aseptic Bottle Filler is completely closed, linear machine with an extremely small aseptic zone. Effective bottle and closure sterilization with peroxide technology (H2O2). Non-contact filling system with filling valves with electromagnetic inductive flowmeters. Positive-displacement flow to reliability maintain aseptic conditions in the aseptic zone. Integrated valve manifold module including sterile air preparation on top of the machine. Foam cleaning station for automatic machine cleaning. Low-pressure air supply unit. Capper unit located inside the aseptic zone. Easy handling of different bottle shapes and materials within same neck diameter / fast change over. Low residual oxygen levels thanks to nitrogene technology, headspace flush with nitrogene. High flexibility for small batches.

Working principle: Pallets with preformed bottles will be manually entered in the dump container. The container feed the bottles up to the unscrambler (Lanfranchi 2L-SR-16, year 2017, Siemens S7-300 PLC) and the unscrambler add the bottles 1 by 1 on the empty bottle conveyor. The bottle conveyor will transport the empty bottle to the filling machine. The transport system consists of the drive with the driven transport chains and the cell bars attached to them. The cell bars pick up the bottles (10x bottles into each cell bar at a time) on the support ring and transport them to the stations. The transport takes place step by step in individual cycles. The transport chains are located outside the aseptic zone. The bottles are transported to the bottle sterilization station. The inside of the bottle and the outer neck (up to the support ring) are sterilized using a hydrogen peroxide aerosol followed by blown-in hot air. 2 steps for spraying the hydrogen peroxide aerosol, 2 steps stay time, 3 steps for drying with hot air and 1 step for drying and rinsing with nitrogen. In the filling station, magnetic inductive flow meters fill the product. Special filling valves and filling spouts reduce foaming. In the capping station, the bottles are closed with screw caps (with Single Use Plastic / SUP addition). The caps are individually removed from a magazine and fed to the capping station. Controlled by the machine cycles, the caps are sterilized, positioned, and the bottle will be closed. The bottle caps are sterilized using a hydrogen peroxide aerosol followed by hot air. The grippers for bottle removal remove the bottles simultaneously from two cell bars (2x 10 per removal) and place them on the removal conveyor.

Including supply and exhaust air unit (air duct), Hydrogen peroxide dispenser and manuals in German language.
