Bottle Filling Batch Coding Machinery covers filling lines together with the batch and date coding that must appear on the pack: liquid fillers matched to the product, cappers, character inkjet printers, continuous inkjet and laser coders, label applicators and the conveying and inspection stages between them. Date and batch coding is a legal requirement in most markets, so the practical question is not whether to code but whether the code stays legible on your packaging through the handling and condensation it will meet.
Ink is matched to the substrate for exactly that reason, and a code that wipes off a wet PET bottle or a frozen carton is a failed inspection rather than a cosmetic problem. Print height and line speed set the printer model, and the coder is normally positioned after filling and capping so that the code goes on a dry, stable surface. Traceability also depends on the code being readable months later, not only at the line.
Filling and coding lines are tendered by food and beverage corporations, municipal water authorities, dairy boards, pharmaceutical and institutional suppliers, and bottling projects financed by development banks and enterprise schemes. We quote against the specification and supply itemised technical offers, ink and consumable specifications, utility figures, origin and warranty declarations, priced spares lists, commissioning and training scope and inspection arrangements.
Tell us your product, container format, required speed and the packaging material to be coded, and we will specify the line and quote it.
