3.1 Description of the machine
The HOYER COMET N is a linear filling machine
in automatic cycle of superior size for the
production of cornets, cups, tubs and other
containers filled with ice cream, sorbet and water
ice, on more lines ranging from one to six
according to the dimensions of the container to
be processed and the production values to be
reached.
The filling process takes place according to a
pre-set cycle as laid down by the filling
specifications agreed upon with the customer.
The machine includes a base unit for transferring
the container along the motion axis of a conveyor
belt and a sequence of stations fit for carrying out
the required filling cycle with ice-cream and/or
other ingredients.
The carpentry of the machine, its mechanical and
commercial components are entirely reproduced
in stainless steel or anticorrosive materials. All
the parts that touch the product directly are
entirely made of stainless material or substances
that are approved for the food industry.
In order to avoid any accidental contact between
the parts of the body and any element of the
machine in motion, the machine is supplied with
panels, protection boards, lids attached with
screws and/or systems for which the use of
suitable tools together with the operator’s
willingness are required to remove them.
The machine is composed of:
1. Steel structure (Part.1 Fig.3.1). with adjustable
feet (Part.2 Fig.3.1)..
2. Selective transmission controlled by an electric
motor with inverter.
3. Intermittor with step to step feed.
4. Set of lamellas with pits designed for the type
of container to be produced. The lamellas are
supported by two longitudinal members which
lead the belts driven/towed by the gearwheels.
5. Vacuum generator.
6. Pneumatic system.
7. Control panel with operation panel (Part.3
Fig.3.1).
8. Operating stations.
HOYER COMET N is not designed to produce
different kinds of products. For each product
requires the “size” to be set on the operator’s
interface panel. Sizes are stored in the PLC that
manages the operation of the machine.
For information on how to change and select a
“size”, see
paragraph 5.2.1 Setting working parameters
