You run a high-quality, high-speed packaging line. You know that even a few drops of moisture can have a dramatic impact on labelling quality, coding and vision inspection efficiency.
Your business depends on maintaining quality. You rely on an effective drying system. Gebo Cermex has taken note and developed OptiDry.
When condensation occurs on the outer surface of bottles and other containers, labels may be poorly applied, coding can be illegible or incomplete and vision inspection efficiency may be impaired. When the containers are metal, moisture may even threaten the integrity of the product. OptiDry is the result of Gebo Cermex’s decades of experience in the beverage sector, with a system that can handle glass, plastic and metal containers in all shapes and sizes. One of OptiDry’s greatest assets is its superior drying efficiency.
Independently adjustable nozzle positioning make it possible to precisely target the air flows at the container’s neck, body or both. This adaptability means that OptiDry remains the best solution across a very wide range of applications: beverages, dairy products, food, home and even personal care products. Soon, there will be OptiDry solutions for high-speed can and glass packaging lines.
In a nutshell, OptiDry offers four major advantages:
1. Precision drying system: OptiDry uses nozzles not air knives, ensuring the stability of the containers and helping to maintain a constant air velocity, and a higher level of adaptability so that the nozzles are as close as possible to the containers.
2. Rapid, simple changeover between container formats: Graduated indicators make it easy to reproduce a precise plenum positioning for quick and efficient transition between product batches. Nozzles are easily moved, manually or automatically.
3. Minimised energy consumption: The system runs with a single fan controlled by a 7.5 or 15kW inverter.
4. Quiet: Gebo Cermex’s noise-absorbent casing makes for greater comfort of use, with a noise level of less than 80dB.
