Overview

This returnable glass bottling line consists mainly of equipment from KRONES and selected components from other established European manufacturers such as Hormes, RINK and HEUFT.
The line is designed for a nominal output of 33,000 bottles per hour and includes the main process steps from depalletizing to palletizing. 
The labeling machine will be completed according to the buyer’s requirements, allowing the line concept to be adapted to the intended bottle and product portfolio.
The line is suited for returnable glass beverage applications.
Based on the listed machines, the line is structured for crate handling, bottle washing preparation, empty bottle inspection, high-capacity filling/capping and returnable crate repacking.
For bottles with screw caps, the RINK machine can be used upstream of the bottle washer; for crown cork bottles, an additional format set is required as per your note.
