Magnetic glass jar loader and unloader: safe, breakage-free handling of glass jars
Smart magnetic system with servo-driven motion
Glass jars are the most delicate packaging in canning, jam, pickle and beverage lines: the slightest knock or collision can crack or break a jar or damage its lid, and besides wasting product it brings the risk of glass fragments getting into the line. The Nano Machine magnetic glass jar loader and unloader is designed for fully controlled handling of exactly these containers.
Using a smart magnetic system, the machine picks up containers with metal lids, as well as cans, from the production line or a pallet, and its vertical and horizontal motion is controlled by servo motors and a smart automation system. The result is fast, precise, impact-free handling, while orderly stacking in the autoclave basket or on the pallet makes optimal use of the full autoclave capacity.
How does a magnetic glass jar loader and unloader work?
In this machine, each container is picked up by its metal lid using magnetic force, so no mechanical pressure is applied to the glass body. To learn more about the properties of this material, see the Glass article on Wikipedia.
Collecting the products
Jars or cans are lined up in the pick-up position, either from the production line conveyor or from a pallet.
Magnetic pick-up
The magnetic head picks up a full row or layer of containers at once, with no pressure on the body.
Controlled motion
Servo motors control the vertical and horizontal movement of the arm with precise speed and acceleration.
Gentle placement at the destination
Containers are gently set down in the autoclave basket, on a pallet or on the line conveyor.
Orderly line feeding
In unloader mode, products are fed evenly and in order to the production or packaging line.
Magnetic glass jar loader and unloader price
The price of a magnetic glass jar loader and unloader depends on the capacity you need, the size and variety of your containers, the type of destination (autoclave basket, pallet or conveyor) and any customisation. Nano Machine sells this machine directly, with no intermediaries, and before you buy, our engineers review your container sizes, baskets and line layout. For metal cans, see the magnetic loader and unloader for filled cans and the other can and glass palletizers.

Magnetic glass jar loader and unloader technical specifications
The Nano Machine magnetic glass jar loader and unloader is built with a capacity of 300 units per minute, a power rating of 9 kW, dimensions of 720 × 210 × 550 cm and a weight of about 2400 kg. The technical specifications, including the size of the magnetic head and the travel path, can be customised to suit the container size, the type of basket or pallet and the line capacity.
Preventing breakage: the key advantage in glass jar lines
With manual handling or unsuitable mechanical grippers, pressure on the glass body and jars knocking against each other are the most common causes of breakage. By picking up jars by their metal lids and using the smooth, coordinated motion of servo motors, the magnetic glass jar loader and unloader eliminates pressure on the body and keeps collisions to a minimum. The result is a dramatic reduction in waste, no risk of glass fragments and greater operator safety.
Compatibility with different container sizes makes the machine an economical choice for factories that produce several products in different jars and cans; a change of settings quickly prepares it for a new size.
Precise stacking and full use of autoclave capacity
In lines where jars are sterilised in an autoclave after capping, orderly stacking in the basket both raises the capacity of each cycle and improves the even circulation of water or steam. The magnetic glass jar loader and unloader fills the basket completely with layer-by-layer stacking and applies the same precision when unloading the basket after sterilisation.
For example, in fruit compote or tomato paste lines that run several jar sizes over the year, the settings for each size only need to be saved once in the control system; when the product changes, the magnetic glass jar loader and unloader is ready for the new size in a few minutes. This shortens line downtime during changeovers and makes it possible to produce smaller, more varied orders without losing productivity.

Applications of the magnetic glass jar loader and unloader
The Nano Machine magnetic glass jar loader and unloader is used on any line where glass jars or cans have to be moved between conveyors, baskets and pallets, including:
Canning industry
Loading and unloading autoclave baskets in glass jar and can lines.
Beverage industry
Collecting and feeding beverage bottles and glass containers between the line and pallets.
Jam, pickles and sauces
Safe handling of jars of jam, pickles, gherkins, olives and sauces at the final stages of the line.
Chemical industry
Handling sturdy containers of chemical products in packaging lines.
Impact on quality, productivity and costs
The magnetic glass jar loader and unloader shortens handling time, raises line efficiency and lowers production costs by removing the need for several workers at the end of the line. Eliminating hand contact with the product improves hygiene and workplace safety, and less breakage keeps waste and stoppages for clearing broken glass to a minimum.
For optimal maintenance, cleaning the magnet surfaces, regular inspection of the rails and servo motor connections and saving the settings for each container size in the control system are recommended. The Nano Machine after-sales team trains operators on this schedule during commissioning.
Why choose the Nano Machine magnetic glass jar loader and unloader?
Nano Machine builds a complete range of end-of-line equipment for canning and glass-packed food lines, from the glass jar palletizer after the pasteurization tunnel to loaders, unloaders, depalletizers and autoclaves. The magnetic glass jar loader and unloader is designed to work in step with this equipment, and its design draws on experience from projects in Iran and exports to Turkey and the Persian Gulf countries.
Summary for production managers
With its magnetic system, precise servo motion, compatibility with different container sizes and a capacity of 300 units per minute, the Nano Machine magnetic glass jar loader and unloader makes handling jars and cans fast, safe and breakage-free, and removes the bottleneck at the end of glass jar lines.
