The beer bottling line is designed to produce between 1,000 and 3,000 bottles per hour. It features a U-shaped configuration, with both the input and output of bottles on the same side, optimizing the use of factory space

Internal Bottle Washing and Cleaning Section

Empty glass bottles are securely held in place while a piston mechanism pushes and rotates them for continuous and alternating washing. The washing nozzles are inserted into the bottles to initiate the cleaning process, which is conveniently controlled via a touchscreen interface.

Filling Process

After washing, the bottles proceed to the filling section where they are filled under isobaric conditions using an Isobaric Counter-Pressure Filler. The bottles are elevated by vacuum pistons, and the filling process begins with a dual inert gas pumping system. The machine components are designed for easy maintenance and cleaning.

The isobaric tanks are equipped with cylinder rims made of stainless steel, and the filling valves located at the bottom of the tank facilitate easy cleaning and maintenance.

The filling system operates with a dual inert gas pumping mechanism and electronic vacuum filling valves, ensuring precise and efficient filling results.

PLC controls allow for adjustments based on different beer types at various temperatures.

The timing of inert gas pumping and filling can be adjusted to minimize foam without using water sprays, significantly reducing oxygen levels, which is crucial for preventing beer oxidation.

2. Large Scale Beer Filling Line (3000 – 50000 bottles/cans per hour)This line employs cutting-edge technology during the filling process to ensure absolute precision while operating at high speeds. The filling technology minimizes foam formation, ensuring high product quality post-filling.

With stable performance and dedicated support from a team of industry-leading engineers and experts, along with a global distribution network, GAI machines consistently receive high praise from customers, earning the title of “timeless machines.”

Types of GAI Wine Filling Lines
Currently, GAI’s wine filling lines are categorized into three types based on production speed:

1. Capacity of 600–3,000 bottles/hour
2. Capacity of 3,000–8,000 bottles/hour
3. Capacity of 8,000–15,000 bottles/hour

Key Functional Units
In the ‘monoblock’ wine filling lines, specific functional units ensure the filling process achieves the highest quality, preserving the wine’s original flavor. These functional units include:

1. Rinsing Section

At the start of the line, the bottle neck is securely clamped, and bottles are inverted using a system of supports and gear wheels. Spray nozzles penetrate deep into the bottles, using pressure to remove any residual particles. Customers can opt for a microfilter to sterilize the water used in this process. The rinsing water is collected and discharged through a closed-loop system, and any water remaining in the bottles after rinsing is negligible. Additionally, customers may choose an optional combination of rinsing and air-blowing systems.

2. Vacuum and Inert Gas Injection Section

A vacuum system removes approximately 90% of the air inside the bottles. The bottles are then filled with inert gas (CO₂ and/or Nitrogen). Vacuuming and inert gas injection operate only when bottles are present. Thanks to a specially designed filling valve patented by GAI, the amount of oxygen inside the bottles is minimized, preserving the wine’s flavor and preventing oxidation.

3. Filling Section

The filling section uses specialized filling valves with gentle compression and a design that minimizes dripping. These patented valves can cut off wine flow and recover any residual gases, preventing any contact between the bottle’s contents and the external environment. The valves are adjustable for sterilization purposes, and the fill level in the bottle can be precisely set from the top of the bottle’s neck. The valves have a conical shape for optimized performance.

Wine is pumped into the bottle from below, enabling the tank to be emptied naturally and completely.

The flow of wine from the tank to the nozzles is regulated by an electromagnetic valve system. For cleaning and sterilization, flow is directed from the top of the tank. The valves have an open position specifically for cleaning and sterilization purposes.

The filling tanks are designed with thick, durable materials for safety and are equipped with CE-compliant safety systems. A capacitive sensor (VEGA) with a 4–20 mA analog signal ensures efficient inverter management. A dummy bottle is used for sterilization purposes, and bottle filling processes are continuously monitored to ensure accurate filling in compliance with specifications.

4. Inert Gas Injection After Filling

This is a critical process where inert gas is injected after filling to minimize the product’s exposure to oxygen. It is also used to adjust the filling level (± 1 mm to ± 0.5 mm). Additionally, this process helps reduce the pressure between the cork and the bottle neck during the capping stage, ensuring optimal sealing and product preservation.

The carbonated beverage production line operates with high filling efficiency, where air is separated during the filling process. It ensures high accuracy in filling levels. The machine can be used for both plastic or glass bottles. The filling stages are controlled by a PLC, managing all individual valves.

2. NON-GAS TYPE

The non-carbonated beverage filling line offers several advantages, such as: high filling speed, prevention of air ingress during the filling process, no need to change filling nozzles when switching bottle sizes for PET bottles, easy operation and maintenance, and electric level adjustment.

• High filling speed
• Prevents air from entering during the filling process
• No need to change filling nozzles when bottle sizes change for PET bottles
• Easy operation and maintenance
• Electric level adjustment

a) Filling Valve 

The nozzle of the filling valve is adjustable, meaning it does not need to be replaced when changing bottle sizes.

The adjustment of the nozzle can be done manually or automatically.

The liquid is filled by following the edge of the bottle to avoid foam formation.

b) Dummy bottle

The false bottles are designed to facilitate the cleaning process. By connecting the false bottles to the water drainage pipes, they prevent water from overflowing onto the machine.

Upon request, the false bottles can be controlled automatically. They will automatically activate at the start of the cleaning process.

c) Bottle Lifting System

The bottle is lifted to the filling valve by the neck clamp. The lifting system operates using pneumatic power.

The bottle lifting system does not require any modifications when changing bottle sizes.

d) Product Storage Tank
