Linear Type Alcohol Drinks Filling Line


Overview of Small Scale Juice Hot Filling Line


Our Small Scale Complete Juice Beverage Hot Filling Production Line is designed for small to medium-sized fruit juice producers who need high-quality, compact equipment. Unlike large-scale lines that require massive space and investment, this system is optimized for 1,000–8,000 BPH (bottles per hour) output—perfect for startup brands, local juice makers, or businesses expanding into new flavors. It specializes in hot filling (a process that preserves juice freshness without additives) and works with glass or PET bottles (0.2–2L volume).


Core Process: Hot Filling for Juice Freshness


Hot filling is critical for fruit juice, as it kills bacteria and extends shelf life without artificial preservatives. Our line streamlines this process with precision:


Hot Filling Principle: Fills juice at 85–95℃ (adjustable based on juice type, e.g., citrus vs. berry) to pasteurize the product.

Sealing Timing: Seals bottles immediately after filling to trap heat and ensure full sterilization—prevents recontamination.

Cooling Integration: Optional post-filling cooling module (add-on) to bring bottles to room temperature before labeling (protects label adhesion).


Key Equipment in the Line


Every machine in the line is sized for small facilities but built to meet food-grade standards:


Washing-Filling-Capping (WFC) Machine

The central unit that combines three steps to save space:


Models: ZPC-12 GFP-12 YQX-3 (1,000–2,000 BPH), ZPC-18 GFP-16 YQX-4 (2,000–4,000 BPH), ZPC-24 GFP-24 YQX-6 (3,000–8,000 BPH).

Washing: Water spray design (uses aseptic water) to clean bottle interiors/exteriors—saves water vs. traditional immersion washing.

Filling: Volumetric filling (adjustable in fine ranks) ensures consistent juice volume (no overfilling/underfilling).

Capping: Automatic cap-dropping and sealing (works with screw caps, flip-top caps) with “no bottle, no cap” safety.


Labeling & Packing Equipment

Labeling Machine: Options include heat shrink sleeve labeling (for full-body labels), OPP hot melt labeling (cost-effective for paper labels), or PVC label sticking (for glossy branding).

Packing Machine: PE film shrink wrapping machine (wraps 4–6 bottle packs) or half-tray shrink wrapping machine (adds stability for glass bottles)—fits retail display needs.


Conveyor System

Design: Compact, energy-efficient conveyors that transport bottles between machines (e.g., from WFC to labeling).

Safety Features: Electric eyes (stop conveyors if bottles jam) and overload protection (prevents machine damage).

Cleanliness: Lubrication system that keeps conveyors clean—no oil contamination of juice bottles.


Technical Specifications


Bottle Compatibility: Glass or PET bottles, 0.2–2L volume, diameter 50–90mm, height 160–340mm (adjustable with change-over parts).

Material: All contact parts (e.g., filling valves, conveyor belts) made of SUS304/SUS316L (food-grade, corrosion-resistant to acidic juices).

Power: 3.05KW (ZPC-12 model) to 4.82KW (ZPC-24 model)—low energy consumption for small businesses.

Control System: PLC with simple interface (operators can adjust filling temperature, speed, and volume without advanced training).


Advantages for Small Juice Producers


Low Initial Investment: Costs less than large-scale lines while maintaining professional quality—ideal for startups.

Space-Saving: Compact design (e.g., WFC machine dimensions 1400×1200×1800mm for ZPC-12) fits into small factories or warehouses.

Fast Setup: Ready to operate within weeks (vs. months for large lines)—get your juice to market faster.

Flexibility: Easy to switch between juice types (e.g., orange, apple, mango) and bottle sizes—supports product diversification.


One-Stop Service for Small Brands


We understand small businesses have unique needs, so our service goes beyond equipment supply:


Customization: Adjust line capacity (e.g., upgrade from 2,000 to 4,000 BPH) or add features (e.g., code sprayers for production dates) as you grow.

Installation & Training: Our engineers visit your facility to set up the line and train your team (1–2 days of training for full operation).

After-Sales Support: 12-month warranty, plus fast access to spare parts (e.g., filling valves, labeling rolls) to minimize downtime.

Hygiene Guidance: Advise on cleaning protocols to meet food safety standards (e.g., daily sanitization of WFC machine).


Why This Line Is Right for Your Juice Business


Freshness Focus: Hot filling preserves juice flavor and nutrients—critical for building customer trust in premium juice brands.

Compliance: CE, ISO, and SGS certifications mean your juice meets global safety standards (ideal if you plan to export).

King Machine Reliability: Our equipment is built for long-term use—even small lines are durable enough for daily operation.
