ZONESUN Automatic Bottle Unscrambler Machine Rotary Bottle Sorting System for PET PE HDPE Bottles

Overview

The ZONESUN ZS-ULP18 is a fully automatic rotary bottle unscrambler engineered to sort, orient, and upright disordered plastic bottles — including PE, PP, PET, and HDPE — at speeds of up to 6,000 bottles per hour. Featuring an 18-station rotary structure, integrated automatic feeding, sorting, flipping, and conveyor transfer sections, the ZS-ULP18 delivers bottles in a stable, correctly oriented position directly to downstream filling or capping equipment. A PLC-based smart control system automatically synchronizes machine speed with your production line, ensuring seamless, high-throughput operation for medium to large-scale facilities.

Key Features

• High-Speed 18-Station Rotary Design: Continuous rotary motion eliminates start-stop delays, achieving up to 6,000 BPH with minimal vibration and bottle damage.
• Broad Bottle Compatibility: Handles PE, PP, PET, and HDPE bottles with diameters of 50–96 mm and heights of 165–310 mm — no bottle change required for most standard sizes.
• PLC Smart Control System: Automatically adjusts conveyor and sorting speed to match downstream filling or capping line output, reducing manual intervention.
• Integrated Feeding & Flipping Unit: Built-in hopper elevator (0.75 kW) and flipping mechanism ensure bottles are consistently uprighted before transfer, eliminating jams.
• Stable Downstream Transfer: Precision conveyor section delivers bottles in a single-file, upright orientation directly to filling, capping, or labeling equipment.
• Compact Footprint: Φ2300 × 2340 mm circular frame fits standard production floor layouts without requiring major line reconfiguration.
• Low Energy Consumption: Total installed power of just 2.25 kW (main + hoist) keeps operating costs low even at full capacity.

Applications

• Beverage & Water Bottling Lines — PET bottle sorting and orienting before high-speed filling.
• Pharmaceutical Packaging — HDPE and PP bottle unscrambling for tablet, capsule, and liquid filling lines.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics — PE and PET bottle feeding for shampoo, lotion, and cream filling systems.
• Food & Condiment Production — Sauce, oil, and vinegar bottle sorting integrated with rotary filling machines.
• Chemical & Cleaning Products — HDPE bottle unscrambling for detergent and disinfectant packaging lines.
• Contract Packaging & CMOs — Flexible bottle size range makes it ideal for multi-SKU contract packaging operations.
