Used GEA Procomac Aseptic filling line 48000 BPHTechnical Specifications & Performance DataThis used bottling line is a high-performance aseptic PET solution engineered by GEA Procomac for industrial packaging and beverage production. Designed for second hand acquisition without sacrificing technical integrity, the line delivers a rated capacity of 48,000 BPH with dry aseptic technology and integrated fruit-piece dosing capability.Rated capacity: 48,000 BPHAseptic method: Dry asepticContainer format: 0.23L (two different molds)Bottle neck & cap: 38mm neck, double-layer 38mm capBlower: SIPA, 24 cavitiesFiller: GEA Procomac Fillstar FX isobaric filler, 84 valvesFruit-piece dosing: 24 valvesCapper: 24 nozzlesGas unit: None (suitable for low-acid and neutral products)Operating hours: 8000Year of manufacture: 2018Downstream speeds: Dual 24,000 BPH modules on key packaging operationsKey models/codes: Fillstar FX; outer-cap machine model NYG18H-00Advanced Automation & Control SystemsThe line integrates advanced aseptic handling and in-line quality control. Preform sterilization, cap feeding and sterilization, and H2O2 injection are automated to maintain hygienic integrity. Optical and X-ray inspection systems monitor critical control points with reject mechanisms for non-conforming containers. A dedicated aseptic water and CIP unit supports repeatable sanitation cycles and short changeover times. Automated components are engineered for consistent performance in high-speed production environments.Production Line Integration CapabilitiesConfigured as a complete production line for PET bottles, the system combines container handling, filling, labeling, secondary packaging, and palletizing. It includes a 24-cavity SIPA blower, GEA Procomac isobaric filler, fruit-piece dosing, sleeve and neck labeling, shrink wrapping, carton packing with industrial robots, accumulation buffering, and palletizing. Format flexibility includes 0.23L with two mold sets and 38mm neck finish. The modular layout supports synchronization across conveyors and buffering for continuous operation.Machine Condition & Maintenance HistoryThe line is still on power and reported in very good condition. Operating hours are approximately 8000. Manuals are available to support installation, operation, and maintenance. The equipment set is recent (predominantly 2018), with select processing assets from 2007 and 2019 included, indicating a professionally maintained and upgraded system.Operational Performance & VersatilityOptimized for low-acid and neutral product aseptic bottling, the configuration is suitable for premium beverage production requiring sterile conditions and gentle handling—especially products containing fruit pieces. Processing assets include tubular pasteurizers, UHT capability, homogenization, deaeration, and aseptic tanks, supporting robust beverage preparation workflows. Dual 24,000 BPH downstream modules help balance high upstream throughput with labeling, overcapping, and end-of-line efficiency.Installation Requirements & Site PreparationAs a high-speed used bottling line, site preparation should consider adequate floor space for the blower-filler block, aseptic room area, labeling and packaging cells, buffer tables, and palletizing zone. Utilities typically include three-phase electrical power, compressed air for blowing and actuators, process water for CIP/aseptic water units, and provisions for chemical handling (H2O2). Cooling and steam/hot water may be required for processing and CIP units. Conveyor layout and accumulation must be planned for smooth material flow and operator access.Safety Standards & Compliance CertificationCore equipment carries CE conformity, with guarding and interlocks on rotating and high-voltage sections. Integrated inspection (optical and X-ray) enhances quality control and consumer safety by ensuring proper sterilization, fill level, closure, and label application. Hygienic design supports food and beverage compliance, aided by automated CIP and sterile handling of preforms, caps, and product pathways.
