BOTTLE FILLING

A few of those innovations include:

Separate air return for bottle:
The air from inside the bottle is vented into a separate ring bowl during filling. This system avoids the spread of contamination to the entire filler.

Automatic insertion of CIP cups:
The cups are automatically inserted, at any time, from the operator panel.

Double pre-evacuation system for PET bottle:
This feature is targeting as a future integration of PET bottles into the brewery industry. BCI wants to guarantee the same oxygen pick-up achieved with glass bottles.

Reduced maintenance costs

High speed filling valves:
run at ambient instead of cold temperatures (heating and cooling efficient)

Neck handling of PET bottles:
The system has totally eliminated the use of in feed pitching screws

Adjustable pocket diameter star wheel:
The same star wheels can accommodate different bottle size without substitution.

Computer controlled mechanical filling valves:
The system allows memorizing each individual filling setting for every product. Each setting is retrievable from the operatorís machine panel and engaged in real time from the filler menu software.
