The application

What the equipment is for.

The bottling layout brings conveyor transport, a guarded filling section and cap handling into a connected process. The equipment is developed around the beverage or liquid, bottle format and closure. A project can focus on a single module or extend to the agreed line scope.

Applications to discuss

Liquid bottling processes
Filling and closure integration
Custom beverage-line development

Developed around the requirement

Configure the working process.

Bottle and closure

Define bottle geometry, closure type, product properties and changeover needs.

Machine modules

Develop the filling, capping and handling arrangements for the required sequence.

Connected line

Agree utilities, cleaning requirements, controls and acceptance checks.

Materials, dimensions, operating range, output, controls and delivery scope are confirmed in the project proposal.

Application & engineering guide

Coordinating bottle filling with closure

Use these notes to define the application before choosing the final equipment configuration.

Working principle

A bottle filling and capping line connects a liquid filling task with placement and tightening or forming of a closure. Industrial bottling lines organise these functions with defined container transfers. QDM’s reference arrangement should be developed from the bottle, liquid and cap together, including how containers enter and leave the working stations.

Configuration decisions

Bottle height, opening and stability affect guides and filling access. The liquid determines the filling principle and fluid path, while the closure defines the capping tool and supply arrangement. A screw cap and a different closure type should not share an assumed mechanism. Identify format changes and whether operators or additional equipment present bottles and caps.

Planning the first build

The first build can review fill quantity and closure quality as separate acceptance items, then check their connected operation. Agree handling of missing containers or closures and access for cleaning. Include downstream labelling or packing only if quoted. Line output is set from the complete operating cycle and the agreed formats rather than the size of the illustrated conveyor.

Project-specific technical parameters

Values to define before the build.

The table identifies the reference arrangement and the values to agree for your application.

Coordinating bottle filling with closure — configuration parameters
Parameter	Configuration / value	Confirm before manufacture
Bottle formats	Defined dimensions and opening	Provide samples or drawings
Liquid	Specified composition and properties	Review filling and cleaning method
Fill target	Defined in mL or g	Agree tolerance and inspection
Closure	Specified cap and neck interface	Define application and quality check
Container transfer	Configured guides and stations	Review stability and orientation
Changeover	Formats and adjustments as scoped	List required bottle and cap variants
Line objective	Agreed bottles per time	Check connected filling and capping

These products are customizable. Configuration values and images are indicative and may change with the application. Final dimensions, components, controls and performance requirements are confirmed in the agreed project specification.

For supplied QDM equipment

Warranty & ongoing support.

Machine warranty

One year from commissioning.

QDM supplies equipment with a standard one-year machine warranty, starting from commissioning.

Component warranty

Manufacturer’s terms.

Purchased components are covered under the relevant manufacturer’s warranty terms. Two-year component coverage applies where provided by the manufacturer; coverage and start dates follow those terms.

Extended cover & maintenance

Plan the support you need.

Extended warranty and maintenance agreements can be arranged for the project. Coverage, duration, service responsibilities and commercial terms are agreed in the contract.

The quotation and contract define the equipment covered, the applicable warranty terms and the agreed service arrangements.
