Retrofit
As a cost saver, a series of Micromat M2/2 Keg
machines were built by M+F KEGTECHNIK GmbH using a single keg clamping cylinder
/ mechanism. (Before retrofit)
The series was short-lived due to inflexibility and
problematic issues namely:
- Having to start and end with Kegs of
similar size.
- Twisting of the clamping mechanism.
- Product leakage due to poor spear contact and
twisting.
- Inability to mix kegs of various sizes.
Before Retrofit:
As a solution, PMT created a quick and simple retrofit
assembly which addressed and solved ALL the above issues. Additionally,
significance of PMT's kit are:
- Simplicity in that the change out of the above is
supplied in kit form.
- Change out time can be as short as 90 minutes.
- Clamping is now on the base cone of the Keg. This
avoids clamping problems due to damaged chimes.
- Kegs of different sizes are now both simultaneously
cleaned and filled.
