The decrowner

The first machine when Rink was founded was the classic crate decapper. Thanks to the continuous further development of this type of machine, we were recognised as the "world market leader in the removal of crown corks" in 2012. After expanding the rotary concept and transferring it to the uncorking of bottles on the bottle conveyor, we can now offer you three types of machine for removing crown corks:

Advantages of decrowning machines for the beverage industry

What RINK machines offer you

Thorough cleaning of returnable bottles is an important quality criterion for every beverage bottler in order to be able to bottle a top-quality product. To achieve this, it is absolutely essential that all beverage bottles are run through the washing machine without crown corks.

Our uncorking machines ensure that all bottles are reliably uncorked and can then be optimally cleaned.

Efficiency & reliability

Our machines ensure the economical and reliable removal of the crown cork. Automated uncorking minimises damage to the bottle and ensures economical processes.

Reusable & recycling

Bottles without crown corks are the prerequisite for reliable cleaning of reusable bottles. The automated separation of bottle and crown corks enables environmentally friendly recycling of the crown corks.

The story

Decrowning machines from RINK

1967

The foundation

When crown corks were still removed by hand, company’s founder Wilhelm RINK thought that this activity could be performed more efficiently by machine. This is how the company RINK was founded and the crate decrowner established.

1995

Mechanical engineering sets new standards

Many years later, Jochen Bäcker, who had taken over the company with his wife Ursula Bäcker, the daughter of the founder, came up with the idea of removing the cork by a rotary movement, similar to a hand opener. The first rotation decrowning machine was commissioned successfully. This principle makes it possible to decrown up to 4,500 crates per hour.

2002

Transfer of the rotary concept to the uncorking of bottles on the bottle conveyor.

2012

RINK’s performance in the field of decrowning machines for the beverage industry in recent years has earned the company the title of “world market leader in removing crown corks“. To date, more than 200 machines of this type are successfully in use worldwide.
