EvoFILL Can

Sidel's latest can filler, EvoFILL Can, is the most technologically advanced filler for cans, which combines the best hygienic conditions with a greater flexibility, sustainability and performance level. This results in outstanding product quality and the lowest TCO.

With 54 to 182 filling valves on EvoFILL Can’s carousel, beer, CSD and JNSDIT manufacturers are able to handle a wide range of speeds and can sizes, from 150ml up to 1L. Beverage and filling temperature flexibility is no longer an issue.

Without compromising the performance of the line, running at over 130,000 cans per hour, beer can be filled up to 18°C and CSD over 20°C. This allows an energy saving of up to 50% vs. filling at 14°C. On top, filling machines reduce the energy consumption by up to 30% by using servomotors instead of traditional drive systems. The new solution has also the capacity to fill CSD at ambient temperature and still drinks in hot-fill via a single piece of equipment. For utmost hygiene, EvoFILL Can features an external beverage tank and an integrated small chamber. This concept ensures a better and more effective cleaning of all parts that come into contact with the beverage. Plus, the chamber is completely full and accommodates the product only, for easier cleaning and reduced costs of maintenance. 

Top three benefits:

  • Hygiene
  • Performance
  • Flexibility
All needs, all sizes

Features

Sidel EvoFILL Can ensures an overall easy cleaning and no residual of product in the filling environment for absolute food safety:

  • Highly accessible and clean “no base” design 
  • Improved CO2 pre-flushing system, resulting in no residue, a cleaner zone and savings of resources
  • New drive system, enabled by servomotors, eliminating any mechanical transmission between filler and seamer, thus requiring no lubrication and no moving parts in the filling area
  • Fully cleanable handling parts with reduced top surfaces
  • Integrated pneumatic box on each filling valve means no pneumatic pipes in the filling environment

The external beverage tank and integrated small chamber ensure a better and more effective cleaning of all parts that come into contact with the beverage:

  • Chamber is completely full and accommodates the product only, reducing costs of maintenance
  • For CSD producers, the external tank acts as an enabler for the Sidel BlendFILL configuration, combining the mixer and the filling buffer tank in one single skid
  • BlendFILL avoids redundant pressure and level control functions, reduces consumption of CO2, as well as the equipment footprint, and minimises product waste when switching between beverages

With an efficiency of 98.5%, EvoFILL Can maximises line availability:

  • Delivering over 130,000 cans per hour (cph) 
  • New valve design allowing for the best filling accuracy – 1ml standard deviation (≤ 500ml cans) 
  • 12,000 working hours before replacing the main components of the filling valves
  • Star wheels and guides are built in light-weight sectors for easy and quick replacement
  • The integrated pneumatic box - an industry first - makes maintenance and access to the filler carousel easier

Without compromising the performance of the line, EvoFILL Can can now process a wide range of can sizes, beverage types, and filling temperatures:

  • Single or double can infeed, allowing for versatile upstream line configuration 
  • Fills CSD at ambient temperature and still drinks in hot-fill
  • Beer filled up to 18°C and CSD over 20°C, with no need for a chilling unit
  • 54 to 182 filling valves
  • Can sizes from 150ml up to 1L
  • Fully automatic carousel adjustment to handle any can's height
  • New valve centering bell design eliminates the need for changeovers of all possible can-end types (from 200 to 209)

The Sidel EvoFILL Can offers massive energy and CO2 savings, thus reducing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO):

  • Improved CO2 pre-flushing system reduces CO2 consumption
  • No water needed for lubrication of rollers
  • Less product waste thanks to best filling accuracy
  • No need for a chilling unit
  • New energy efficient servomotors
  • Water and chemical savings for cleaning
