Circulating Bottled Water Production Line – Process Description

The Circulating Bottled Water Production Line designed and manufactured by Zhangjiagang Mic Machinery ensures safe, hygienic, and efficient bottled water production. The line integrates advanced water purification, barrel cleaning, filling, capping, inspection, and packaging technologies, guaranteeing premium-quality drinking water for the market.

Production Process

1. Raw Water Treatment

• Raw water is first introduced into the water treatment system, where it undergoes multi-stage filtration and reverse osmosis purification.

• Disinfection is carried out using ozone sterilization and ultraviolet sterilization to eliminate bacteria and microorganisms.

• The treated water is stored in a pure water tank, ready for the filling process.

2. Empty Barrel Preparation

• Recycled barrels enter the line and are processed by an automatic film-removing and cap-pulling machine, removing old films and caps.

• Barrels are then cleaned externally by an automatic outer brushing machine, ensuring dirt and dust are eliminated.

3. Internal Cleaning & Sterilization

• Barrels pass through a high-pressure inner rinsing machine, which uses strong water jets and sterilizing solutions to remove residues.

• In the 14-station washing, filling, and capping monoblock, barrels undergo multiple cleaning cycles, including alkaline water rinse, circulating water rinse, ozone water rinse, and pure water rinse. This ensures thorough sterilization before filling.

4. Filling & Capping

• Cleaned barrels are precisely filled using PLC-controlled filling valves, ensuring accuracy and hygiene.

• Bottle caps are disinfected through the cap online cleaning and sterilization system.

• An automatic cap loader and capping unit then securely seals the barrels to prevent secondary contamination.

5. Inspection & Labeling

• Each filled barrel passes through a lamp inspection unit, allowing operators to detect impurities or defects.

• Barrels are then processed by an automatic capping and shrink-wrapping machine, applying tamper-proof seals for product safety.

6. Coding & Final Packaging

• A laser coding machine prints production dates and batch codes for full product traceability.

• Barrels are packaged using an automatic bagging machine for dust-proof protection.

• An automatic palletizer stacks the finished barrels neatly for storage and distribution.

7. Finished Product Storage

• The completed bottles of water are transferred to the finished product warehouse, ready for delivery to distributors and customers worldwide.

Product Highlights

• Complete Line Integration: Combines washing, filling, and capping in one unit to reduce labor costs.

• Advanced Purification: Water passes through ozone disinfection and UV sterilization before entering the mineral water bottle filling machine.

• Smart Automation: Features such as automatic decapping, cap sterilization, and automatic water bottle filling machine ensure product safety.

• Flexible Layouts: Customizable designs to fit customer factory spaces and production goals.

• Cost Efficiency: Provides an affordable water bottle filling machine price without compromising quality.
