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
bottlesContainers: GlassFilling monoblock: Krones Mecafill VK2V
066-103/KK (1999), 66 filling valves, double air evacuation,
integrated rinser with 60 heads (pressurized water) and 11 capping

(1998, retrofitted in 2013) and Robak PBSz-01-60 (2014)Pasteurizer:
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

between 0.33L and 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

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
