In addition to state-of-the-art sanitary design, the R 005 generation brings the added choice of “self-cleaning.” With an optional Clean-in-Place (CIP) cleaning system designed exclusively for Multivac thermoform packaging machines.

• Cleaning and disinfection fluids are whipped into a foam through a series of pipes and nozzles. This foam is then sprayed onto predefined surfaces, where it is able to cling for the required time for sanitation.
• The measurement of cleaning chemicals is carried out by means of a separate processing unit. An external spray gun for cleaning the machine's exterior is also connected to this unit.
• The entire cleaning process is carried out in clearly defined steps, and runs with the press of a button. It is a repeatable procedure that is always consistent in quality. Step for step. Time after time. It doesn’t get any cleaner or safer than this.

• CIP chain. The transport chain.
  In contrast to traditional water rinsing of the chain, this cleaning uses specialized chemicals. Chain lifespan is increased.
• CIP chain guides. The chain guide profile.
  This CIP module supports perfect automatic chain cleaning.
• CIP frame. The lateral frame profile.
  The frame is thoroughly cleaned without disassembly.
• CIP Inside. The interior of the machine.
  Reliable cleaning of the complete interior space of the machine and areas that are difficult to access, such as moulds, infeed section, sealing tools and cutting.
• CIP Intralox conveyor. The cleaning of the removal belt.
  Automatic cleaning is carried out quickly and safely while the belt is running.
