Can filler-seamer block Modulfill Bloc FS-C
An innovation in can filling
When it comes to the filling of sensitive beverages in cans, Krones has extended its realm of expertise to now include the Modulfill Bloc FS-C with compact clean room. The block solution contains accumulated Krones know-how and unites conventional and aseptic filling technology.
The filler-capper block is equipped with the Krones Modulseam can seamer and impresses in many regards: it reduces interfaces while simultaneously minimising the sensitive filling and capping area, as well as requiring considerably less space than conventional arrangements.

Everything from a single source
With its Modulfill Bloc FS-C design including compact clean room, Krones is providing a block solution for the can filling and seaming of products with high demands on hygiene (e.g. without the use of preserving agents).
Improved cleaning
A closed cleaning system ensures simultaneous exterior and interior cleaning of the treatment area, filling valves and additional pipe system. The use of caustic and acid instead of foam means that both the quantity and variance of the cleaning media are reduced.
Minimisation of the sensitive filling and capping area
Thanks to the clean room housing design, the sensitive product area can be reduced to a minimum compared to conventional filling technology. Decentralised filter units ensure controlled overpressure in the filler area.
Low space requirement
The footprint can be reduced to up to 35 percent compared to an arrangement with conventional, stand-alone machine guards.
Ease of operation
The machines in the block share a joint control panel and the controller.
Product quality
The volumetric filling valve with inductive flow meter ensures the highest accuracy during filling – and keeps the product quality high. Low oxygen values combined with a 40 percent lower CO2 consumption ensure that the product quality is high while the media consumption remains low. A variety of products can also be manufactured without a tunnel pasteuriser and with only one flash pasteuriser.

Everything from a single source
With its Modulfill Bloc FS-C Krones is offering its first ever block solution for the filling and sealing of cans.
Simple operation
The machines in the block share a joint control panel and the controller.
Product quality
The volumetric filling valve with inductive flow meter ensures the highest accuracy during filling – and keeps the product quality high. Low oxygen values combined with a 40 percent lower CO₂ consumption ensure that the product quality is high while the media consumption remains low.
Easy to clean
The entire block has a hygienic design without table top in its standard version and, if required, can be directly connected to Krones CIP and foam-cleaning systems. In the variant with compact clean room, the exterior and interior cleaning are executed simultaneously.
Quick change-over
Best equipped, even for type and format change-overs. Height adjustment is fully automatic, quick-change handling parts keep change-over times short and the combined centring bell can even be used for several can formats.
High energy saving
A 30 percent energy saving (compared to conventional drive concepts) can be achieved thanks to the use of servo technology
