| Supply scope | 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 |
| Contact material | SUS 304 product contact, CIP-ready |
| Key control | Fill accuracy, closure integrity, CIP time |
Filling principle comes from the product, not from the target BPH. 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.
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 unit behind this configuration is the Gravity Filling Machine for Still Water.
The parts cost is small; the time is not. A format change touches star wheels, guide rails, grippers, the cap chute and the recipe. On a line with two formats and two changes a day, the annual hours lost exceed the price of a second small machine in many plants.
Valve count, utility schedule and footprint sit on the Volumetric Filling Machine for Still Water page.
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 Global Top 10 Beverage Filling Machine Manufacturers 2026: Market.
From tens of minutes to over an hour, set by the circuit volume and the soil. It is a fixed cost per production day and should be planned as downtime, not squeezed into the shift.
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.
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.
