Beer filling machine

Beverage filling machines enable bottles to be filled efficiently. The filtered or unfiltered beer is filled directly from the tank into the bottles. It is important that the filling process takes place in the absence of oxygen in order to preserve the quality of the beer.

Various processes are used in beer bottling:

  • Counter-pressure procedure
  • Vacuum process
  • Isobaric method

The counter-pressure process is the most commonly used method for bottling beer. The bottle is first flushed with CO2 and pressurized. The beer is then poured in.
