Bullet points from Alpha's website below.
Beverage Cannon | FILLER
• Dual Lane Design: Alpha’s unique dual lane design provides incredibly low dissolved oxygen levels, smaller footprint, expandability and redundancy.
• Double Barrel Filler: The Double barrel fill nozzle feature places two fill tubes into each can. This allows faster filling with less space, less energy and fewer moving parts.
• SmartFill Servo: The vertical motion of the filler is controlled by a servo motor. Utilizing servo technology meas precise, adjustable movement, size change with the push of a button, foam control, no compressed air, low energy, and no maintenance.
• Alpha’s hi-temp silicone beer tubing and 316 stainless fill nozzle allow for high temp, or caustic cleaning during CIP. Even steam cleaning is an option.
Beverage Cannon | LID MAGAZINE “THE REVOLVER”
• The Revolver, high capacity lid magazine leaves all others wanting. This magazine system holds 4, that’s FOUR full sleeves of lids. Nothing in the industry comes close. It gets better. When the two active chambers empty, simply turn the magazine 90 degrees and open the slide gates to actiate the new chambers on-the-fly! Fill your 2nd Revolver (included) at your leisure and with ease. When one magazine is empty, simply lift and replace with the 2nd without stopping. The level sensor alerts when lids are low so you never miss a switch.
Beverage Cannon | LID APPLICATOR
• The dual lane lid applicator provides easy, 4 bolt size change and fine position adjustment on two axis. Alpha’s unique spring tension release and stainless pressure roll-on feature means consistent, reliable lid pick and placement, all day long.
Beverage Cannon | FEED SCREW
• Where the conveyor ends, our feed screw takes over. This design moves cans effortlessly over a Delrin (polymer) plate surface through the rest of the operation. Our feed screw is also servo driven and provides fast, quiet, and incredibly smooth can transition to the load cell, the seamer, final can rinse and dry station and onto packaging. No problematic conveyor-to-conveyor “bumper can” transitions. Just perfect, controlled movement, every time.
Beverage Cannon | LOAD CELL CAN WEIGH STATION (Patented)
• The patented check weigh station on the Beer Cannon weighs each can prior to seaming.
• Operator chooses to seam, or not seam any low fills detected.
• Low fills are rejected automatically. Load cell also allows prevention of over fill to maximize profit!
Beverage Cannon | SEAMER
• Seam operations 1 and 2 are cam operated and driven by a servo motor. Alpha was the original servo driven seamer. We are flattered by those who have followed. Servo technology offers precise seam adjustments within a thousandth of an inch possible, on-the-fly, right on the touch screen.
• Size changes on the seamer are very fast and easy. Simply 4 bolts loosened, and spacers added, or removed, bolts retightened and done. All grease zerks are easily accessed for periodic maintenance. The most critical aspect of any canning operation should hold up for millions of cans.
