Clean Design concept for the most stringent hygiene demands
To ensure that the bottle washer itself also sparkles with cleanliness, we use our revised Clean Design concept to ensure that even the most stringent quality and hygiene demands are met.
Automated post-treatment section
- Self-cleaning filters
- Short cleaning time
Optimum access
- Reduced cleaning time
- Thanks to the easy-to-open access points and the optional automatic lifting windows, personnel demands for cleaning are low
Simple and thorough cleaning
- Easily accessible zones enable fast and intensive cleaning
- Bottom troughs mounted with an incline
- Pumps run until completely empty
- Short drying times
This is why the Lavatec series is enviro-classified:
Energy efficiency
- Low consumption of thermal energy thanks to the use of insulation, regenerative heat transfer devices and lattice or lightweight carriers
- Economic water consumption thanks to optimised water routing, pressure regulation and fresh water cooling concepts
Environmental compatibility
- Minimised water and lubricant consumption using innovative technologies
Benefits to you
Highest microbiological safety
The Lavatec series guarantees optimum hygiene in the machine thanks to its Clean Design water zones, self-cleaning pump sieves and innovative filtration concepts.
Compact machine with an individual design
The effective loop routing in the single-end machine concept and the modular layout of the machine sections combine to keep installation space requirements to a minimum. Thanks to the high-pressure pre-jetting, heat recovery and label removal, these systems can be perfectly tailored to individual cleaning requirements.
Digitally up to date
The latest technology used on the touch-screen and in the PLC ideally equips our machines for the new age of digitalization. For this purpose, we offer a wide portfolio of digital products for the line and machine as well as individual setting options directly on the touch-screen.
Low cleaning requirements
With good accessibility, an open design and self-cleaning pump sieves for fully-automated removal of dirt, operating effort and cleaning requirements are both kept to a minimum.
Efficient in terms of operating costs
The intelligent water management, separation of hot and cold zones by design and the individually configured additional equipment save both energy and resources.
