Raw water, neck finish and the filler-capper match decide more about a water line than its BPH. Most of the meeting goes on BPH; the other two get a fraction of the time. Rinser clamps and capping heads are cut for one neck finish; a 1 mm thread change means new change parts rather than a new machine.
Star wheels, guide rails, grippers, cap chute and filling recipe all change with the format. The parts are not the cost; the time is. Two formats on one line typically cost 40-90 minutes per switch, which is why the production factor falls from about 0.85 to 0.70 and why a second small line is sometimes cheaper than one flexible line.
| Filling principle | Best for | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| Gravity | Still water, one rigid bottle size | Thin-wall bottles deform under head pressure |
| Volumetric valve | 3-15 L and mixed formats | Valve wear shows as slow drift, not a sudden error |
| Isobaric | Carbonated water only | Needs counter-pressure, so slower per valve |
| Load cell | Oil and high-value liquid | Slower cycle, higher cost per valve |
A different bottle format means a different unit; see the Blow-fill-cap Combibloc for Still Water.
Mineral water is defined by its source and its mineral profile, so treatment is limited to what the label claim allows. Purified water starts from any feed and is built up to a specification. The filling machine is the same; the treatment train and the legal claim are not.
The Gravity Filling Machine for Still Water is the matching unit when this becomes a line project.
A lighter bottle is less rigid, so it deforms more under the filling head and grips differently in the star wheels. The filler may need a different neck handling and a lower contact pressure. Lightweighting is a bottle project that reaches into the filling line.
The same question is worked through from another angle in How to Match a Water Filling Machine to Your.
Yes, with change parts: star wheels, guide rails, grippers and a filling recipe. Budget 40-90 minutes per switch and expect the production factor to drop from about 0.85 to 0.70.
It depends on whether blowing, packing and palletizing sit in the same hall. Fix the footprint by drawing the layout at 1:100 with conveyor radii included, then check the turning radius of the largest format.
For a complete line with blowing, filling, labelling and packing, plan several weeks on site after arrival, plus operator training. Civil work and utility readiness are the usual delay, not the machinery.
Not on the same filler. Carbonation needs isobaric valves, a CO2 dosing and mixing unit, and a different bowl. A combiblock can carry both valve sets, but they are separate specifications, not a field conversion.
