Hood Feeding Unit

How Does the Hood Feeding System Work?

The automatic hood feeding unit, which can be added to the filling line, performs the operation in two stages. In the first stage, the hood is transferred from the distributor to the rotary drum. In the second stage, it is placed from the drum onto the bottle neck. This two-stage system guarantees that the hoods are placed onto the bottle mouths in the correct orientation and with precision.

The single-layer horizontal feeding table ensures the hoods are aligned in an orderly manner, while the pneumatic piston system securely pushes the hoods onto the bottle mouths. Thanks to this mechanism, the hood application process is carried out continuously and at high speed.

Areas of Use

The hood feeding unit is used across a wide range of products including olive oil, sunflower oil, wine, alcoholic beverages, fruit juices, pharmaceutical bottles, and cosmetic products. Shrink hood application enhances product safety by providing tamper evidence and improves the aesthetic appearance of the packaging.

Integration with the Hood Heating Unit

The hood feeding unit works in synchronization with the hood heating unit to create a fully automatic hood application line. Bottles passing through the feeding unit achieve a perfect packaging appearance as the hoods shrink in the heating tunnel.
