Technical Summary and Application Scope – ATES Giorgia 6000 bphThe
ATES Giorgia 8000 bph is a continuous-motion washing and rinsing
system for glass bottles, suitable for both returnable and new
bottles. It is designed for stand-alone use or seamless integration
into existing or new bottling lines. Built primarily from AISI 304
stainless steel with plastic baskets and continuous-motion conveying,
the machine ensures robust performance with industrial-grade safety
protections.Main Technical DataType: Industrial glass bottle washer
and rinser, suitable for recycled and new bottles.Nominal output
capacity: up to 6,000 bottles/hour depending on bottle format,
contamination level, and line configuration.Materials: AISI 304
stainless steel structure; plastic baskets; stainless-steel doors and
inspection windows.Mechanical composition: Shelves, baskets for bottle
housing, and automatic loading/unloading with push bars. Easy
inspection access for maintenance.Water treatment: Hot-water washing
with caustic detergent (soda) followed by multi-stage
rinsing.Installed electrical power: approx. 20 kW.Electrical supply:
400 V, 3-phase, 50 Hz; auxiliaries 24 V; PLC/SCADA integration
(Siemens, Omron, Allen-Bradley).Water consumption: 1.0–1.5 m³/h via
1″ G (BSPP) supply, minimum 1.5 bar.Drainage: integrated rinse and
tank drainage via 2″ pipelinepressed air: 6 bar operating pressure;
approx. 20 Nl/h; 1/4″ connection.Thermal energy: approx. 250,000
kcal/h (~291 kW) via dedicated heat exchanger, compatible with steam
or hot water supply; typical wash temperature around 70 °C for
caustic stage.Filtration: internal filtration plus 0.2 μm
microfiltration for process water.Sanitation: cleaning and
sanitization stages including pre-wash and rinse, with detergent and
disinfectant dosing; thermal insulation of tanks and piping for energy
efficiency.System Architecture and Process FlowReturnable bottle cycle
(full washing and rinsing)Automatic loading into baskets via push
bars.Pre-wash spray to remove dirt and label residues.Immersion in hot
caustic bath to disintegrate adhesives and organic
matter.High-pressure internal and external washing through jetting
manifolds.Multiple recirculating rinses followed by a final rinse with
clean water or potable/demineralized water.Continuous label and debris
extraction with filtration to prevent clogging.New bottle cycle
(rinsing only)Spray pre-wash.Pre-treatment with detergent
solution.Internal and external washing as required.Multi-stage rinsing
and transfer to filling or storage.Immersion and label management
stagePre-wash and wash for removal of labels and residues.Sequential
immersion and spray jets with controlled dosing and
temperature.Rinse-water recovery and recycling via collection tanks
and purification filters.Mechanical Structure and HandlingWelded AISI
304 stainless-steel frame with inspection and maintenance doors.Basket
housing with shelves and supports for secure handling.Conveyors and
push-bar mechanisms for infeed and discharge.Multi-section
stainless-steel tanks, recirculating pumps, valves, and drain
circuits.Label removal mechanism and continuous filtration for high
operational availability.Automation, Electrical, and ControlPLC-based
control system (Siemens / Omron / Allen-Bradley or equivalent) with
HMI interface.Configurable parameters: cycle time, temperature, water
flow, chemical dosing.Integrated monitoring of motors and pumps with
fault detection and thermal protection.Safety features: start/stop
controls, emergency stops, interlocked safety guardspatible with
SCADA/MES systems for integration with modern bottling
lines.Performance, Efficiency, and FlexibilityThree integrated cycles
for both returnable and new bottles.Multi-stage rinsing reduces water
usage while ensuring hygienic results.Energy efficiency through heat
exchanger, insulated tanks, and water recirculation.Gentle handling
path minimizes bottle impact and breakage.Modular design allows
stand-alone operation or integration into complete bottling
lines.Safety and ComplianceConforms to CE regulations with emergency
stops and interlocked guards.Overload protection on moving parts.Easy
access points for inspection and service.Design emphasizes operator
safety, cleanability, and quick maintenance.SummaryIn summary, the
Used Automatic Bottle Washer ATES Giorgia 8000 bph is an
industrial-grade, continuous-motion glass bottle washer configured for
rigorous cleaning performance and low operational overhead. With an
integrated suite of washing, rinsing, and label removal systems,
optimized utility consumption, and robust mechanical construction,
this machine represents an efficient solution for the hygienic
preparation of glass bottles in beverage production environments. The
combination of advanced process engineering and straightforward user
controls ensures consistent results across a wide range of bottle
types and production conditions.
