Fully automated block rinser for cans – flexible cleaning without retooling
The fully automatic Block Rinser from Whystler Automation is the ideal cleaning solution for companies that want to clean cans of different sizes hygienically and efficiently in their production line – without the need for complex changeovers. Thanks to the integrated format adjustment within the infeed head and rinser channel, changing can formats is quick and easy. Unlike a Bar Rinser the block rinser eliminates the need to replace heads when changing formats.
Semi- or fully automatic adjustment to different can sizes
The height adjustment for a new can size can be performed semi-automatically via a handwheel or fully automatically, depending on requirements. The diameter adjustment is also pneumatically controlled. The block rinser thus enables the processing of different can sizes in the shortest possible time, without the need to replace the inlet and outlet heads.
Modular design of the can rinser for maximum flexibility with different cleaning media
High performance and wide range of applications
With a capacity of up to 120,000 cans per hour, the fully automatic block rinser is ideally suited for high-throughput production lines. Like the bar rinsers, the block rinser is successfully used in industries that require the highest hygiene standards and process reliability, such as the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, food, and beverage industries.

FAQ
How is the Whystler fully automatic can block rinser integrated into an existing bottling line in the beverage industry?
The fully automatic block rinser from Whystler Automation is integrated into existing canning lines and adapted to the respective conveying technology at the infeed and outfeed. Infeed and outfeed heights, any height differences, and the existing line layout are all taken into account. Inclines or limited space can also be considered during the planning phase, ensuring that the block rinser can be reliably integrated into the production line as a cleaning solution before the filling process.
Can the block rinser compensate for height differences and inclined line sections in can lines?
Yes. Whystler's block rinsers are specifically designed to compensate for height differences between upstream and downstream conveying systems. This defined height overcoming is a key requirement for optimal cleaning performance. Depending on the can size, line speed, and cleaning medium used, inclined versions are also possible, deviating from the standard on-site incline of 28°–30°. The specific implementation is always carried out on a project-specific basis, taking into account the line layout.
Which can formats and sizes can be cleaned with the Blockrinser?
Whystler Automation's fully automatic block rinsers can clean any can height and diameter – from 150ml to 1l. The integrated format setting allows for quick and easy format changes. Expansion is also possible later if needed, for example, when new can formats are added to the customer's product portfolio.
What cleaning media are used for can cleaning with the block rinser and how reliable is the cleaning performance?
For can cleaning, Whystler Automation uses (ionized) air, water, or combined methods, depending on the application. The block rinser reliably removes dust, metal shavings, and other particles that can enter the can during manufacturing, transport, or handling. This ensures that the required hygiene standards are met. The cleaning performance is adjusted to the specific can format (height, diameter, etc.) and the line speed. Up to 120,000 cans per hour can be cleaned.
