1. Aseptic Spouted Pouch Fillers A-300 for high and low-acid food productswith extended shelf life
2. Aseptis whos who Aseptis was set up in 2004 following a technological transfer from the Spanish company Bossar s.l., as a worldwide leading pouch machinery manufacturer, together with the incorporation of skilled people as a competence transfer. Our Aseptis technical officehas redesigned a well-proven technology to release a new generation of horizontal stand up pouch equipment copyingwith the state-of-the-art sanitary and hygienic design standards.It leads us to expand market segments for flexible containers like ultra-clean and aseptic packaging.
Every modelstands strictly its users requirements as well as its relevant microbiological validation protocol. Our technical expertise, powered by alliances made with third parties expert in containment system and disinfection system, guaranteelong shelf life to both high and low-acid cold filling products.You can visit us at www.aseptis.com

7. Sterilization of packaging materials
Sterilization of our packaging machine
Maintaining sterility in our packaging machine
8. SPOUT: LDPE or HDPE
Dry Sterilization: gas H2O2 as sterilant (both interior and exterior)
FILM/POUCH: PET/ALU/LLDPE
Dry Sterilization: gas H2O2 as sterilant (both interior and exterior)
12. The pouch packaging machine: gaseous H2O2, which does not condensed at the surface of the machine;
The filler: steam or liquid chemicals sterilants;
The air filters: Hepa filters in Rabs/laminar flow systems are sterilized by H2O2, to prevent issues when starting or after replacement of filters.
13. Our aseptic pouch fillers have to be sterilized prior to production and kept in sterile condition during production. We have two ventilation methods for protecting aseptic zones by sterile air:
Protection of larger zones by restricted access barrier system (RABS) with vertical laminar flow like:
the pouch forming area, starting from the film sterilization up to the pouch cut-off;
the pouch filling area
For the production of sensitive products, this covered machine is installed in a clean room.
Protection of critical zones by a containment cabin (ISOLATOR) with turbulent ventilation:
the pouch filling area with overpressure;
the packaging material sterilizing area (film, pouch, spout) with negative pressure
All enclosure surfaces, also those of pouches, must be sterile because the micro organisms may be carried around inside such a totally closed system.

19. The unwinder design accepts one or two reel supports
Expansible pneumatic reel shaft for quick changeover ? Possibility to integrate an automatic film splicer to avoid loosing any time in film changeover and to increase machine efficiency
Proportional brake according to unwinding film tension
Splicing table with automatic brake in ergonomic position
Continuous servo motorized rollers with tension control
Buffer lever to keep independent continuous unwinding from intermittent motion on following stations
The film is constantly laterally guided during unwinding
A photocell reads the printed eye mark for positioning the film under two double bottom hole punchers
Retails go to a collecting box
20. Film tracking composed by one group with triple function:
Slave pulling: rubber servo motorised pulling rollers, which are synchronised with main pulling system. It leads to further film transportation in the sealing area under tension control
Hole punching adjustment: synchronised with the photocell, the adjustment of the film for the cutting dies is made by the servo rollers
Automatic film alignment: composed by guiding rollers which are laterally orientated by a servomotor according to the photocell signals to get a correct position of the film on the forming plough entrance
Motorized height and gusset adjustments (no spare parts)
System guarantees a tolerance of 0,25mm.
22. All the sealing groups have P.I.D control heating
The independent and removable bottom and vertical lineal sealing jaws are mounted on a plate which allows their horizontal adjustment, cycle by cycle, according to the photocell signal at the entrance. It leads to a constant relocation of the sealing jaws according to film spot variations (automatic seal alignment).
Motorized lateral movements of sealing groups (easy format change)
Vertical sealing jaws are composed by a rigid + flexible (silicon) side.
A master and slave pulling system brings a uniform film tension in the sealing area avoiding any stretching.
The servo motorized rubber rollers, with the assistance of the lineal movement holding gripper, pulls the film without creating any tension.
A photocell close to the pulling system brings high cutting accuracy.
System guarantees a tolerance of 0,25mm seal width.
24. Mechanical movement and independent bottom and vertical sealing units
Lineal movement of the sealing units creates high-pressure sealing up to 1500 kg force
25. Machine backside easy to access for maintenance
External machine Stainless Steel 304
Cinematic based on the equilibrium law
Internal mechanisms in Carbon Steel treated with Zinc
IP 65 rating. Suitable where high pressure wash downs are required.
