| Material | SUS 304 product contact, CIP-ready |
| Key control | Fill accuracy, closure integrity, CIP time |
The product fixes the filling principle; output only fixes the size. Still liquid at a steady density runs gravity or volumetric; carbonated product needs isobaric; thick product with solids needs a piston; product sold by weight runs a load cell. A machine picked ahead of the product usually gets picked again.
Pressure filling, for instance, can achieve higher filling speeds and is suitable for carbonated beverages but may involve more complex machinery and maintenance.
Rated output at the specified format, fill accuracy on a defined sample, closure torque or seal measurement, and a timed changeover with the buyer watching. Anything not measured before sign-off becomes a discussion after the final payment.
| Principle | Doses by | Fails when |
|---|---|---|
| Gravity | Fill level in the bottle | Bottle geometry varies |
| Volumetric | Chamber volume | Valve seal wears |
| Isobaric | Volume under counter-pressure | Pressure or temperature drifts |
| Piston | Displacement | Product carries solids |
| Load cell | Net weight | Product temperature moves |
The Gravity Filling Machine for Still Water is the matching unit when this becomes a line project.
Valve count follows the target BPH and the fill time per valve. Longer fill time, thicker product or a taller bottle all reduce the rate per valve, so the same BPH needs more valves. Buying valves for a water duty and running juice on them is a common and expensive mismatch.
Sizing for this duty runs through the Volumetric Filling Machine for Still Water, where the valve count is set out.
The neck finish sets the rinser clamp, the filling valve seal and the capping head. A change of a millimetre in the thread is a change of change parts and often of the capper. It is the single most under-specified item in a filling line enquiry.
The same question is worked through from another angle in Operator Training Best Practices for Optimal Filling Line Performance.
Gravity fills to a level set by a tube, so accuracy depends on the bottle. A volumetric filler measures a chamber volume, which keeps it accurate when the format changes. Gravity is simpler and cheaper; volumetric is more repeatable when the bottle changes.
Yes, with change parts: star wheels, guide rails, grippers and a recipe. The parts are cheap compared with the changeover time, which is why most plants specify one dominant format.
Valve seals, piston seals, capping head inserts, guide rail blocks and one set of change parts for the second format. These are the items that stop a line for days when they fail.
Rated BPH is a steady-state figure at one format. Real output subtracts changeover, CIP, label changes and downstream stops, which is why planning uses a factor of 0.65-0.85.
