2000–2024Advanced Automation & Control SystemsThe line integrates
modern automation features across critical stations to ensure stable
performance and high-quality output in beverage production. The Krones
CONTIROLL labeler features electric head adjustment for precise label
placement, while the capping system by AROL uses a pick & place
distribution to ensure reliable application of pre-threaded plastic
caps. The Sidel ALSIM filler operates within a pressurized cabin
equipped with filters to support hygienic filling conditions.The Sidel
blow molder includes an air recovery system to optimize compressed air
utilization. Operator interfaces across the equipment provide
intuitive adjustment and monitoring, supporting quick startups,
changeovers, and routine operations in high-throughput environments
typical of industrial packaging.Production Line Integration
CapabilitiesThis second hand used bottling line is designed for
seamless integration from preform handling to end-of-line palletizing.
The VE.CO. preform tipper, hopper, elevator, and preform infeed supply
the Sidel SBO 16 Series 2 rotary blow molder. Downstream, the gravity
filler and AROL capping machine form a robust monobloc for consistent
filling and closure application. The Krones CONTIROLL labeler applies
plastic wrap-around labels via a roll-fed station, supported by a
Videojet 3210 laser coder for high-contrast coding. Secondary and
end-of-line packaging are handled by the SMI shrink wrapper, Twinpack
handle applicator, ACMI layer palletizer, and TOSA ring wrapper.Inline

HistoryThis used bottling line is presented in working condition with
components manufactured between 2000 and 2024, including a recent 2024
Videojet coder for coding integration. The configuration is set up for
still water in PET, with a steady 18,000 bph capacity. It is ready for
operation and suitable for facilities seeking reliable, industrial
packaging performance.Operational Performance &
VersatilityPurpose-built for water bottling, the line balances
hygienic design with production efficiency. The gravity filling
principle on the Sidel ALSIM with 63 valves ensures stable fill
accuracy for still products. The AROL capping solution handles
pre-threaded plastic caps with pick & place distribution for secure
closures. The Krones CONTIROLL delivers high-speed roll-fed labeling
with plastic wrap-around labels, while the integrated Videojet laser
coder provides durable, maintenance-friendly coding. The SMI shrink
wrapper and Twinpack handle applicator support retail-ready pack
formats, and the ACMI/TOSA end-of-line ensures consistent pallet
stability.Installation Requirements & Site PreparationFor efficient
commissioning, the site should accommodate a linear flow from preform
reception to palletizing. Utilities should include process water for
rinsing/filling, compressed air for the blow molder and pneumatics,
and electrical power compatible with industrial bottling equipment
standards. A chiller is not included and should be provisioned as
required by the blow molding process. Ensure adequate space for
conveyors, buffer sections, and operator access for maintenance.Safety
Standards & Compliance CertificationThe line is equipped with machine
guards, interlocked access points, and emergency stop systems across
major stations to protect operators during beverage production.
Hygienic features such as the pressurized filler cabin with filtration
support compliance with beverage industry hygiene expectations.
Stainless-steel and food-grade materials are used where appropriate
for contact and washdown areas. Manufacturers represented—Sidel,
