Used KRONES filling line for beer - glass - 24000 BPHTechnical
Specifications & Performance DataThis used bottling line is a second
hand complete glass beer bottling line engineered for industrial
packaging and beverage production. It is configured around a Krones
Mecafill VK2V filling monoblock and complemented by bottle washing,
pasteurization, labeling, and crate handling equipment. The line is
optimized for glass beer bottles and delivers reliable output with
precise control of product quality parameters.Rated capacity: 24,000
bottles/hour at 0.5LCompatible formats: 0.33L and 0.5L beer

Fischer (1999) HTST module; nominal 130 hl/h, 5°C inlet, 72°C for 30
s (30 PU), 11°C outlet; buffer tank 6,000 LElectrical & utilities
(pasteurization system): 3x400V, 50Hz; compressed air 6 bar (dry,
oil-free)Additional Fischer heat-exchanger modules: EUROPA 40PI and
DUBACAL 400P plate pack references (PS 16 bar; plate pack Cmax 780 mm,
Cmin 770 mm)Advanced Automation & Control SystemsThe line integrates
robust automation for consistent, repeatable performance in beverage
production. The pasteurization system is automatically controlled with
supervisory monitoring of all key process variables, enabling precise
quality assurance at high throughput.Monitored parameters:
pasteurization temperature, holding temperature, inlet/outlet
temperature, temperature and pressure during pasteurization, flow
volume, pasteurizing units (PU), buffer tank level, and filling
pressure after buffer tankOperating modes: manual operation with
automatic control for stability and safetyElectrical specifications:

0.5L formatsProduction Line Integration CapabilitiesThis complete
bottling line is engineered for inline operation and smooth
integration between washers, filling, pasteurization, labeling, and
crate handling. It suits breweries seeking an industrial packaging
solution for glass beer bottles with stable, high-speed
performance.Integrated bottle washers upstream for returnable glass

Condition & Maintenance HistoryThis second hand used bottling line
includes several components retrofitted in 2013, supporting reliable
operation and extended service life. The Krones crate washer, Krones
bottle loader, Krones bottle unloader, and Krones bottle washing
machine underwent retrofits in 2013. The Robak bottle washer is a 2014
unit. Overall, the line presents as a complete, ready-for-operation
industrial packaging solution with proven brands and
models.Operational Performance & VersatilityThe Krones Mecafill VK2V
filling block with double air evacuation ensures low oxygen pick-up
and stable carbonation for beer. The HTST pasteurization system
(approx. 130 hl/h) provides 30 PU at 72°C for 30 seconds, delivering
microbiological stability. The Krones Prontomatic cold-glue labeler
applies front, back, and neck labels with high precision at line
speed.Ideal for beer production in glass bottlesHigh-quality cold-glue
labeling on multiple stationsReturnable glass capability with upstream
washing and crate handlingInstallation Requirements & Site
PreparationThe line requires provisions typical for a high-speed glass
bottling operation. Utilities should include electrical power at
3x400V, 50Hz for the process modules, compressed air at 6 bar for
actuators and valves, process water for rinsing and pasteurization
circuits, and appropriate drainage. Allocate linear space for washers,
monoblock, pasteurizer, labeler, and crate handling with safe access
for operation and maintenance.Safety Standards & Compliance
CertificationSafety notices and multilingual operation instructions
are affixed on process equipment. The line features guarded rotating
machinery and interlocked access on core units in line with modern
beverage machinery practices. Pasteurization and filling parameters
are continuously monitored to maintain process integrity and product
safety. Stainless steel construction on process equipment supports
hygienic desi
