Labour & disposal savings
A Kent-based food company is saving between £700 and £1200 per week through labour and disposal savings achieved from using the Strautmann LiquiDrainer, supplied by Compact and Bale.
The LiquiDrainer offers a solution for companies looking for a quick and profitable method of emptying filled liquid containers as entire packages can be emptied. High-cost manual opening of the bottles is no longer necessary as the LiquiDrainer automatically does the job. The machine has various feed options to accommodate required throughput.
In this case a fully automated system was chosen that simply allows them to tip PET bottles into the hopper via rotating forks up a conveyor and through the LiquiDrainer for processing. This allows twenty one thousand bottles to be perforated per hour.
