FAQ
What is the fundamental difference between a Whystler cage rinser and a Whystler block rinser for cans?
A key difference lies in the can guidance system. With a block rinser, the cans are guided in a single block, while with a cage rinser, they are guided by multiple metal bars.
Another difference lies in the infeed and outfeed heads and the associated effort required for format changes. With a cage rinser, the heads must be changed manually when switching can formats, whereas with a block rinser, format adjustment is integrated into both the infeed head and the rinser channel.
For high performances the more precise cage rinser is recommended to prevent damage to the cans.
How exactly does can cleaning with a Whystler cage rinser work?
The cans are moved into a defined cleaning position by the rotating basket of the cage rinser. In this position, the can is cleaned internally, typically upside down.
This ensures that the hygiene standards required for filling are met. After cleaning, the cans are inspected and transferred back to the downstream conveying system and fed into the filling process.
What can formats and sizes can be cleaned with a fully automatic cage rinser?
The cage rinsers produced by Whystler Automation are suitable for common can formats such as standard, sleek, or slim cans with defined heights and diameters.
Because the cans are individually mounted on metal bars in the cage rinser, format changes typically involve mechanical adjustments, such as replacing the infeed or outfeed baskets at the transition to the conveyor system or filler. This results in increased changeover time.
How is a Whystler cage rinser integrated into an existing canning line?
The cage rinser is integrated into existing canning lines in the beverage industry as a cleaning station upstream of the filler and connected to the existing conveyor system. The transfer of cans, line speed, and the stability of the can guidance are particularly crucial.
Like block rinsers, cage rinsers are designed to overcome differences in height.
