| What is included | Filling, capping and closing equipment |
| Filling principles | Gravity, volumetric, isobaric, piston, load cell |
| Capacity | 2,000-48,000 BPH by configuration |
| Accuracy basis | Volume, weight or fill level |
| Wetted parts | SUS 304 product contact, CIP-ready |
| Key control | Fill accuracy, closure integrity, CIP time |
Four variables sit behind a fill number: the dosing principle, the product temperature, the bottle geometry, and the condition of the valve or piston seal. A machine that holds its tolerance on the factory test can drift in the plant when the product arrives warmer or the bottle wall gets thinner.
The capping head is built for one closure family. A screw cap, a crown and a ROPP cap need different heads, different heights and different checks. Changing closure after the line is ordered means a new head, and sometimes a new bottle finish, not a setting change.
| 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 |
Site requirements, air and water consumption sit with the Gravity Filling Machine for Still Water.
A CIP cycle is measured in tens of minutes to over an hour depending on the circuit and the soil. It is not production time, and a plan that counts it as production will miss its daily output every day. The number belongs in the capacity calculation, not in the shift handover.
Switch from time-based to conductivity-validated CIP to cut chemical, water and steam use by 20–40%.
The Volumetric Filling Machine for Still Water is the reference unit for this configuration.
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.
The same question is worked through from another angle in How Volumetric Filling Machines Improve Accuracy and Efficiency.
It depends on the principle and the product. A volumetric or load cell filler holds a tighter band than gravity on a variable bottle. The tolerance belongs in the acceptance protocol, measured by weight on a defined sample.
A single frame carrying the rinser, the filler and the capper, driven and controlled together. It removes two transfers and the floor space between three separate machines.
Bottle capacity variation, product temperature, valve wear or foam. On glass, mould-to-mould capacity variation alone is enough to make level filling inconsistent, which is why glass lines often check-weigh.
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.
