Technical Specifications & Performance Data

The Bertolaso Filling Monoblock Syncronia 16-16 1-840 is a second hand bottling monoblock designed for high-quality beverage production on glass bottles. This used bottling line component integrates rinsing, filling, and corking in a compact rotary platform engineered for reliable industrial packaging performance.Manufactured by Bertolaso, the machine features an inert gas management concept for both bottle conditioning and closure, making it an excellent choice for premium products requiring oxygen reduction. Manufacturer: Bertolaso Model: Syncronia 16-16-1-840 Year: 2000 Container type: Glass bottles Rinser: 16 grippers with penetrating nozzle and double inert gas treatment Filler type: Gravity/light depression with nitrogen support Corker: Single-head straight corking with inert gas and vacuum corking Formats: Compatible with 0.375L and 0.75L bottle formats Electrical: 400 V, 50 Hz CIP readiness: Integrated CIP with stainless steel dummy bottles Model code & configuration: Syncronia 16-16-1-840 Advanced Automation & Control SystemsThe monoblock includes process features aimed at consistent quality and reduced oxygen pickup. The rinser employs double inert gas treatment to pre-condition the bottles. The filler operates in light vacuum/gravity mode with nitrogen, complemented by level control at the valve. A sensor detects hanging bottles at the outfeed to protect product flow and minimize stoppages. Integrated CIP and stainless steel dummy bottles enable efficient cleaning-in place procedures across rinsing and filling turrets, supporting hygienic operation in beverage production.

Production Line Integration Capabilities

Designed for industrial packaging environments, this monoblock can operate as a standalone unit or be integrated into a complete used bottling line. It is optimized for glass bottle handling and can interface with upstream conveyors and downstream inspection or labeling systems. Format flexibility includes 0.375L and 0.75L sizes, and quick changeover is supported by the turret design and format parts.

Machine Condition & Maintenance History

The machine is in excellent overall condition and has processed approximately 1,000,000 bottles over its lifetime. Its condition and integrated CIP system suggest careful operation and maintenance, making it suitable for facilities seeking ready-for operation bottling equipment with proven reliability.

Operational Performance & Versatility

This monoblock is particularly suited to oxygen-sensitive products handled in glass bottles. The double inert gas rinsing, nitrogen-assisted filling under light depression, and vacuum corking with inert gas injection collectively provide robust oxygen management. The machine’s engineering by Bertolaso is recognized for precision filling, gentle handling, and closure integrity with straight corks. Additional safeguards include outfeed sensors for bottle position control and level regulation at the filling valve for consistent fill heights.More information can be found on the spec sheet.
