New unscrambler concept speeds throughput, reduces downtime and has smaller footprint

The new NECOSORT-III high-speed plastic bottle unscrambler from Nalbach has a unique design consisting of a rotating vertical drum and only two moving parts, reducing maintenance and downtime.

In addition to having the smallest footprint in the industry, the NECOSORT-III high-speed plastic bottle unscrambler offers the following benefits:

3 Year Warranty.
Designed with only two moving parts, virtually eliminating downtime, the NECOSORT-III carries a three-year warranty.
Reduced Maintenance and Downtime.
Only two moving parts in the whole system. One of which sorts and moves all of the bottles to the discharge starwheel and the second being the discharge starwheel itself. Only two moving parts means significantly less maintenance and downtime
Damaged Bottle Tolerant.
The NECOSORT-III has been designed for high speed, high uptime applications. The system is tolerant of damaged bottles keeping high speed production lines such as soft drink, juice and water filling lines in operation.
Small Footprint
The NECOSORT-III’s unique design employs a sorting hopper that is turned vertically, significantly reducing the overall footprint of the system for easy integration into tight production areas.
High Efficiency.
The NECOSORT-III’s design provides a “queue” of bottles for each sorting “pocket” insuring very high machine efficiencies.
Simple Design.
There are no reciprocating motions, complicated mechanisms or hard to adjust container handling parts.
Easy Access.
The drive system and all other major components are easily accessible for routine maintenance. Maintenance personnel are not required to get down on hands and knees to service the NECOSORT-III.
Touch Screen System Control.
Easy to use touch screen machine controller with speed settings for each bottle type.

Tool-Less Changeovers.
Changeovers from one bottle size to another are fast and completely tool-less.
