Description Used Robino & Galandrino Minibloc capsuling machine, year 2003, speed 3000 bph The used Robino & Galandrino Minibloc capsuling machine, year 2003 – 3000 bph, offers a compact and versatile solution for automatically applying capsules to still and sparkling wine bottles. Consequently, this machine is suitable for a variety of production environments. Robino & Galandrino designed this monoblock machine to meet diverse production needs, while ensuring high operational efficiency and consistent product quality. Structure and mechanical configuration Robino & Galandrino configured this machine as a Minibloc automatic capsuling monoblock. Specifically, the design features two operating heads, each of which performs specific phases of the capsuling process. The feeding auger precisely aligns and guides the bottles into the processing area. In this way, the machine ensures accurate bottle positioning throughout the entire cycle. Performance by Capsule Type The used Robino & Galandrino Minibloc capsuling machine, built in 2003 – 3000 bph, offers specific production levels based on the type of capsule. For example, it dispenses and centrifuges polylaminate capsules on still wine bottles at speeds of up to 1,200 bottles per hour. It heat-shrinks PVC capsules on still wine bottles at speeds of up to 3,000 bottles per hour. It forms four folds and smoothes sparkling wine corks (capsules) at speeds of up to 2,000 bottles per hour. Furthermore, each process maintains excellent consistency and minimal deviation. Therefore, it can meet various technical bottling standards throughout the wine industry. Capsule Feeding System The machine uses a horizontal capsule magazine with a motorized conveyor that feeds capsules into the dispenser. Specifically, it holds approximately 1,200 capsules or 1,800 standard wine capsules, allowing operators to run longer production runs without frequent refills. Consequently, this reduces machine downtime and improves the overall efficiency of the line. Furthermore, the feeding system ensures a constant flow of capsules at different operating speeds, thus contributing to the stability and reliability of the machine. Distribution and synchronization mechanisms The single-chamber dispenser performs a 90-degree angular movement to release the capsules. At the same time, a mechanical needle system separates the capsules before distribution to prevent jamming and ensure a continuous process. Furthermore, the encoder actively manages the synchronization of all functions and adjusts them in real time. Thanks to this, the system is able to dynamically react to changes in bottle flow and capsule format. Unlike older systems, this configuration minimizes manual calibration. Format compatibility and flexibility The machine processes bottles in three formats: 0.375 liters, 0.75 liters, and 1.5 liters. As a result, operators can use it on different bottling lines and product ranges. Indeed, the used Robino & Galandrino Minibloc capper, year 2003 – 3000 bph, is well suited to the needs of small and medium-sized wineries requiring flexible equipment. Operational conclusions: Technicians appreciate the used Robino & Galandrino Minibloc capper, year 2003 – 3000 bph, for its solid mechanics and well-optimized capping system. In particular, the double-head structure and encoder-based adjustments allow for precise operation and quick format changeovers. Furthermore, its ability to handle multiple capsule types adds further value. Unlike simpler machines, this one combines precision and adaptability
