Hydra
Idra, automated bottle washer
The HYDRA series is a fully automated bottle washer, designed according to the cutting-edge industry innovations.
Reduced maintenance, extreme user friendliness and cleaning are the salient features of this machine.
A new, more rational bottle cleaning cycle, which consists of a first bottle emptying station followed by a pre-washing spray and a first pre-maceration bath, allows considerably reducing the pollution of the detergent bath and obtaining a considerable decrease in consumption.
The double label extraction station ensures the complete detachment of the labels from the bottles, while a rotating filter, located along the entire width of the machine, ensures their total discharge to the outside.
The series of internal and external washing sprays with high pressure detergent, performed with self-cleaning and self-centering rotating nozzles, completes the bottle cleaning.
An extremely effective alkalinity reduction station, followed by a series of internal and external rinsing sprays, allows complete rinsing of the bottle with very low consumption of mains water.
The modular construction, various optional pieces of equipment and different special executions allow the HYDRA series of industrial bottle washers maximum flexibility to meet all customer’s needs.
HYDRA bottle cleaning machines are specifically developed for cleaning various types of glass bottles, such as wine, beer, oil bottles, etc.

The HYDRA series is a completely automated bottle washer designed to incorporate the most recent sector innovations. Reduced maintenance, extreme ease-of-use and -cleaning are its strong points. A new, more rational wash cycle-including an initial bottle-emptying station followed by a pre-wash spraying and first pre-soak bath-significantly reduces detergent bath pollution and markedly decreases consumption levels. The double label-removal station assures that the labels are completely loosened from the bottles while a rotating filter, extending the entire width of the machine, carries every last trace outside the machine.The series of internal and external high-pressure detergent wash sprayings, performed using self-cleaning and self-centering rotating nozzles completes the bottle washing process. A highly-effective alkalinity reduction station followed by a series of internal and external spray rinses, provide thorough bottle rinsing with low water consumption from the mains. Thanks to its modular structure and range of options and special features, the HYDRA series offers maximum flexibility to meet all customer requirements.
