Glass, plastic, aluminum, and other metal beverage containers
Many beverage companies often handle various container types and switch between different beverage types throughout the same production day. Depending on the job, these facilities process everything from heavy glass bottles to lightweight aluminum cans. High-performance packaging equipment is vital for meeting production goals without sacrificing quality or industry compliance.
Ska Fabricating has deep roots in the beverage industry and understands how speed and flexibility affect operational success. We work with all types of beverage companies, from craft beer producers launching their first products to established brands expanding into new markets. We pride ourselves on personal customer service for each project, regardless of the size or scope of your business.
Glass, plastic, aluminum, and other metal containers come in various shapes and sizes, and we have experience working with many of them used in the beverage industry. Ska Fab offers both automatic and manual systems that are perfect for handling these containers.
Ska Fabricating’s CIB depalletizer can unload aluminum cans at speeds up to 400 cans per minute (CPM). For even faster operation, the MAB depalletizer features a standard two-pallet infeed system. This design allows for continuous operation and minimizes downtime by ensuring a smooth flow of pallets. The Nimbus depalletizer is specifically designed for smaller spaces and lower-speed applications, making it an ideal solution for facilities with limited floor space.
The HHA and FHA 5000 series of depalletizers have a lifting capacity of up to 4000 lbs. When you need a reliable solution for unloading your glass bottles and jars, let examine your pallet specs and find the right solution.
Ska Fabricating has used the FHA 3000 and HHA 5000 to unload various-sized plastic beverage containers, as well as tin and steel cocktail cans.
Ska Fabricating manufactures not only depalletizers but also palletizers, multiple conveyance and accumulation systems, rinsers, dryers, case packers, and date coders.
Ska Fab tests our equipment before shipping and during the installation process to ensure it performs successfully. We have unloaded on a wide variety of beverage containers, including glass bottles used for spirits and beer, plastic containers for juices and water, and aluminum cans for cocktails, beer, and seltzers, among others. Each video shows optional discharge and decline conveyance purchased with that particular unit.
Our automatic liquid packaging solutions and equipment coordinate the movement of containers across each process phase, from depalletizing and filling to capping and palletization. Examples of these systems include:
Beverage manufacturing cannot tolerate equipment downtime because customer demands create intense pressure to keep production moving smoothly. Equipment must perform reliably when processing everything from carbonated beverages requiring gentle handling to shelf-stable products needing higher-speed processing. Ska Fab delivers equipment built to manage these challenges and help drive success for your business.
