Modern depalletizing equipment can be integrated separately into the line configuration.Machine Condition & Maintenance HistoryThe line is in production and assembly until its scheduled dismantling in February 2027. A dry-cycle buyer inspection can be arranged. Equipment is supplied as a multi-year installation, with listed machine years ranging from 1996 to 2016.Capacity and technical data are declared figures. Buyers should assess the suitability of the 18,000 bph filler output for their intended production requirements during inspection and project planning.Operational Performance & VersatilityThis second hand industrial packaging line is dedicated to returnable glass bottle operations. It is suitable for beverage production applications requiring reusable crates, plastic screw caps and wet-glue labels. The two labeling aggregates provide the capability to apply multiple labels during the labeling stage.Integrated bottle and closure inspection systems support quality checks before and after filling, while the bottle washer and crate washer address the cleaning requirements associated with returnable glass bottle circulation.Installation Requirements & Site PreparationInstallation requires a site capable of accommodating a complete returnable glass bottling line with crate handling, bottle washing, filling, labeling, inspection and palletizing sections. The line should be integrated with suitable conveyors and material handling equipment to maintain continuous bottle and crate flowmissioning planning should include utility connections and coordination for washing, filling, premix preparation, inspection and automated crate-handling equipment. Replacement or integration of modern depalletizing equipment should be considered as part of the installation scope.Safety Standards & Compliance CertificationThe line incorporates automated inspection and controlled material handling stages that support consistent operation in a glass bottling environment. Bottle handling, crate transport, washing, filling and palletizing areas should be assessed during installation to ensure appropriate guarding, emergency-stop coverage and operator access arrangements.As with any used bottling line, the final installation should include a site-specific review of safety systems, electrical interfaces, guarding and hygiene procedures before production start-up.
