Vertical door autoclave: precise, even and fully automatic sterilization
Smart automation and gradual valves
Sterilization is at the heart of canned food safety and shelf life. If temperature, pressure and time are not controlled precisely, either the product is not fully sterilized and its safety is put at risk, or it is overheated and loses flavour, colour and texture. With its smart automation system, the Nano Machine vertical door autoclave controls these three critical parameters throughout the entire cycle.
The machine's gradual valves admit steam and change pressure smoothly and under control, so sterilization is even and containers are never exposed to sudden pressure. The operator can set and save the sterilization temperature, pressure and time for each product, so the machine's working conditions can be fully customised for different products.
How does a vertical door autoclave work?
An autoclave combines heat and pressure to destroy the microorganisms in a sealed product. To learn more about how this equipment works, see the Autoclave article on Wikipedia.
Loading the carts
Carts or baskets holding the product are moved into the autoclave through the vertical door.
Automatic door closing
The space-saving vertical door closes and seals automatically.
Selecting the program
The operator selects the product program, including sterilization temperature, pressure and time.
Controlled sterilization
The automation system and gradual valves run the heating, holding and cooling cycle precisely.
Unloading the carts
Once the cycle is complete and the pressure is safe, the door opens and the carts are taken out for unloading.
Vertical door autoclave price
The price of a vertical door autoclave depends on the vessel capacity, the number of carts, the type of product and container, the steam supply system and the control features. Nano Machine sells this machine directly, with no intermediaries, and before you buy our engineers review your production volume, product type and the steam infrastructure of your plant. For loading and unloading the baskets, see the can loader for autoclave baskets, the unloader and our other food industry machinery.

Vertical door autoclave technical specifications
The basic technical specifications of the Nano Machine vertical door autoclave, including dimensions, weight and power, are given in the specifications table: 8 kW motor power, 250 cm length, 205 cm width, 330 cm height and a weight of about 1300 kg. The vessel capacity, number of carts, working temperature and pressure range and control system are customised to each plant's product, containers and daily production volume.
Vertical door: easy loading and space savings
Conventional hinged and sliding doors take up a lot of space in front of or beside the autoclave and restrict cart movement. On the Nano Machine autoclave the door opens and closes vertically, so the area around the machine stays free and carts can be loaded and unloaded faster and more easily. This is especially useful in production halls with limited space.
Automatic opening and closing of the door also shortens the time between cycles and prevents human error in closing and sealing, which improves both safety and productivity.
Custom programs for a wide range of products
Every canned product, from tuna and ready meals to legumes, mushrooms and fruit compote, needs a different combination of temperature, pressure and time. The automation system of the vertical door autoclave lets you define and save a dedicated program for each product, so changing products is just a matter of selecting a program, and sterilization quality stays the same in every cycle.
For example, canned fish in metal cans needs a different sterilization temperature and time from compote or sauce in glass jars, and glass jars are sensitive to precise pressure control during cooling so that the lids are not damaged. By saving a separate program for each product and container, the vertical door autoclave manages these differences automatically and eliminates the risk of operator error.
This flexibility allows a plant to produce a varied range of canned and glass-jar products throughout the year with a single vertical door autoclave and to make full use of its sterilization capacity without additional investment.

Applications of the vertical door autoclave
The Nano Machine vertical door autoclave is used in any industry that needs precise, repeatable sterilization, including:
Canning and food industry
Sterilizing canned fish, meat, legumes, mushrooms, ready meals and glass-jar products.
Pharmaceutical industry
Sterilizing pharmaceutical equipment and materials with precise parameter control.
Laboratories
Sterilizing laboratory tools and materials in large volumes.
Processing industries
Heat treatment of packaged products to extend their shelf life.
Impact on quality and productivity
Precise, even sterilization guarantees product safety and shelf life and prevents the loss of quality caused by overheating. Full automation and the automatic vertical door shorten each cycle and the time between cycles, and keep human error, returns and waste to a minimum.
For best maintenance, we recommend periodic inspection of the valves, temperature and pressure sensors, door seal and steam system, as well as regular calibration of the instruments. During commissioning, the Nano Machine after-sales team trains your staff on optimised sterilization programs for your products and on the maintenance schedule, and spare parts are supplied for up to ten years. Logging every sterilization cycle also supports quality control and hygiene audits.
