Used Sidel filling Combiblock for PET 18000 BPHTechnical
Specifications & Performance DataThis Filling Monoblock Combi
integrates blow molding, gravity filling, and capping within a single
compact platform for high-efficiency PET beverage production.
Manufactured by Sidel with precision engineering, the system combines
a rotary blow molder, a gravity filler, and an Arol capping turret to
minimize footprint, reduce handling, and improve overall line
efficiency. It is an excellent choice for a used bottling line or
second hand industrial packaging upgrade focused on beverage
production with PET containers.Configuration: Combi monoblock for

SystemsThe monoblockâs integrated design simplifies
synchronization between blowing, filling, and capping. The pressurized
filler cabin with filtration improves hygienic conditions around the
filling environment, helping maintain product quality. Mechanical
gravity valves ensure repeatable volumetric accuracy for still
beverages, while the Arol capping turret with pick & place
distribution delivers consistent torque and closure positioning for
pre-threaded plastic caps, including tethered designs compliant with
modern packaging standards. Quick access to key turrets supports
routine adjustments and maintenance.Production Line Integration
CapabilitiesThis Combi is engineered for smooth integration into a
complete packaging line. Upstream, it pairs with preform feeding and
heating systems suited to the Sidel SBO 16 Series 2. Downstream, it
interfaces with conveyors, labelers, inspection equipment, and
secondary packaging machinery for end-to-end industrial packaging.
Format changes center on PET neck compatibility and cap
standardization (e.g., GME30.28), ensuring dependable handling across
typical PET beverage applications. The counterclockwise rotation
aligns with common plant layouts, enabling inline or cell-based
configurations.Machine Condition & Maintenance HistoryThe Combi was
overhauled at the end of 2024, providing refreshed reliability for
immediate deployment in a used bottling line context. Core mechanical
and hygienic features are stated, including the pressurized filler
cabin and air recovery on the blow molder. The listing indicates a
complete Alaska neck handling set is included; molds and a chiller are
not included. The machine is presented in ready-for-operation
condition for second hand beverage production environments.Operational
Performance & VersatilityThe gravity filling principle with mechanical
valves is widely used for still products and offers robust,
low-maintenance performance. The 63-valve configuration supports high
throughput potential when matched with upstream heating and downstream
handling. The Arol 12-head capper covers pre-threaded plastic closures
and modern tethered designs (e.g., HEXALITE), while pick & place cap
distribution enhances gentle handling and consistent feed. The Sidel
SBO 16 rotary blow molder with an air recovery system reduces
compressed air consumption, contributing to lower operating costs in
continuous beverage production.Installation Requirements & Site
PreparationAs a compact Combi, the machine reduces transfer conveyors
and floor space compared to separate machines. Site preparation should
allow for PET preform supply, compressed air (to leverage air recovery
benefits), process water for utilities as applicable, and integration
with existing conveying and downstream packaging equipment. A chiller
is not included and should be planned according to plant utilities.
The systemâs modular sections facilitate access for maintenance
and sanitation.Safety Standards & Compliance CertificationThe
monoblock incorporates enclosure and cabin features that promote
hygienic bottling for food-grade applications. The pressurized filler
cabin with filters helps protect the product zone. Standard machine
protections and interlocks are expected for operator safety in
industrial environments, aligning with modern beverage production and
packaging machinery practices. Stainless and food-grade materials are
used extensively in product-contact and hygienic areas.
