Designed around Krones equipment, it ensures consistent performance for 0.5L and 1.0L formats. The line is suitable for industrial bottling and beverage production, especially for sensitive products requiring extended shelf life (ESL). Line Type: PET ESL with UV cap treatment; Aseptic ready configuration Maximum line speed: 12000 bph (based on 1.0L) Formats: Compatible with 0.5L and 1.0L bottle formats Neck formats: 38mm Containers: Designed for handling PET bottles Blower: Krones Contiform S8, 8 cavities Filler: Krones VODM-PET with volumetric counter pressure, 32 heads Labelling: Krones rotary labeller with 10 plates (10000 bph) and Krones rotary labeller with 8 plates (8000 bph) End of line: Case packer and Fanuc robot palletiser for Euro pallets Operating hours: Approx. 43950 hours Year of manufacture (main equipment): 2006 Model references: Contiform S8, VODM-PET Advanced automation and control systems The line integrates modern automation with centralised HMI for recipe management, production counters and in-process monitoring Real-time performance monitoring. Automatic valve and pump control supports consistent filling conditions and stable operation at the intended flow rate. Automated production functions with HMI-based control. Performance setpoint management and production counter display. Integrated UV cap curing system for ESL compliance. Designed for hygienic operation and stable filling. Quick recipe selection for 0.5L and 1.0L formats. Production line integration capability. This complete used bottling line is configured to operate inline from blowing PET preforms to filling, labeling, case packing, and robotic palletizing. Conveyors and accumulation ensure a smooth product flow with minimal interruptions. Inline configuration from blow molding to palletizing Two rotary labelers to optimize throughput across different formats Fanuc robot palletizer for Euro pallet patterns Format changeover between 0.5L and 1.0L with dedicated changeover parts Suitable for beverage production workflows requiring ESL conditions Machine status and maintenance history The line remained in production until December 2025. It is still connected to the mains and can be demonstrated in operation. Total hours are approximately 43,950, indicating a well-used but maintained system, typical of industrial packaging environments. No renewals have been declared and the equipment has remained in service during recent operations. Operational until December 2025 Connected and demonstrably in operation Approximately 43,950 operating hours Regular maintenance in production context Operational performance and versatility The Krones VODM-PET is a volumetric filler suitable for counterpressure filling of sensitive beverages. With ESL management and UV treatment of the caps, the line is ideal for extended service life applications. The Contiform S8 8-cavity blow molding machine ensures stable production aligned with the filler, while two rotary labelers enable format-specific optimization. Isobaric backpressure filling for sensitive products. ESL configuration with UV cap treatment. Optimized for 0.5L and 1.0L PET bottles. Dual labeling configuration for format and throughput flexibility. Robotic palletizing to ensure consistent end-of-line quality. Installation and Site Preparation Requirements: The line is designed for standard factory utilities and modern production layouts. A suitable production area is required to accommodate the bottle blowing, preforming, filling, labeling, and palletizing sections, with adequate access and safety clearances. Electrical power for the blow molder, filler, labelers, and robotics Compressed air (high and low pressure) for blowing and pneumatic functions Process utilities suitable for ESL operation Space arrangements for in-line conveyors, accumulation, and end-of-line palletizing Safety standards and compliance certification Built around Krones engineering, this used bottling line includes industrial safety guards, interlocks, and emergency stop circuits to ensure safe operation. Hygienic design practices typical of modern beverage packaging machinery are applied in all product contact and handling areas Machine guarding and safety interlocks Emergency stop systems at key stations Hygienic construction suitable for beverage industry applications Designed to align with international industrial safety standards
