Introducing Miniblock - Wine Filling Technology

Evolution BPS are excited to bring to UK Wine Producers the latest innovation from their partner MBF SpA.  MBF are world renowned for developing innovative bottling solutions for medium and large-sized wine and spirits producers, they have decided to extend their market to smaller wineries with the creation of the Miniblock.  These are monoblocs dedicated to the wine sector which include Rinsers, Fillers and Cappers that do not exceed 3000 b/h and boast the same advanced technology that characterises the entire MBF range.

To offer a solution for wineries with lower annual production levels, MBF has created a compact,  high performance machine combining ease of use with minimum maintenance.

Thanks to this solution, these wineries now have a compact system at their disposal, capable of respecting their wine as much as possible.  With Miniblock special attention is paid to minimising the increase in dissolved oxygen pick up and to maintaining product integrity throughout the filling process.

The MBF Miniblock is equipped with a 316 stainless steel filling valve without a seal at the tip,  inert gas injection into the bottle before filling ensures maximum protection of the product from oxygen absorption.

 The turret is equipped with a CIP system for sanitisation with the aid of dummy bottles.

 At the capping phase, the Miniblock provides both the single-head capping turret for straight corks equipped with hopper and channel for feeding caps with a centrifugal system aimed at minimising the formation of dust, and the single-head for screw caps (standard or StelvinLux), equipped with vibrating bowl including capsule level sensor and distribution of the caps at the mouth of the channel.

Different bottle formats can be accommodated with standard or adjustable stars, ensuring a quick and easy format change.

The Miniblock, with a solid construction in stainless steel, can also be equipped with a series of options designed to meet the different needs of customers.
