A capping and dosing apparatus for nitrogen is described for packaging, the apparatus includes a rotating capping machine configured to receive filled containers in series and apply closures for the respective packages. The present apparatus includes a dosing system to inject an inert gas, usually nitrogen in liquid form, into the free space of each container to improve the freshness and taste of the contents of the container. It is important to note that the dosing system is configured to perform the injection of nitrogen near or at the so-called transfer point of the capping machine, thereby detracting, which is desirable, the dissipation of nitrogen and improving the consistent dosing and Product efficient. |
