Hot fill bottling unit for juices and isotonic beverages

Ideal for producers handling delicate or specialty liquids, this hot fill bottling unit ensures consistent fill levels while accommodating variations in bottle dimensions, enhancing your production line’s efficiency and precision.

Fills Hot Liquids into Specialty Bottles

The XF4100H and XF2100H from XpressFill are hot fill level bottling machines engineered for precise filling of liquids at temperatures up to 90 °C (194 °F). These machines utilize a level fill sensor probe to maintain consistent fill levels, making them ideal for bottling juices, isotonic beverages, and specialty bottles such as hand-blown glass. With a manual operation suited for bench-top applications, each unit handles a variety of products including orange juice and balsamic vinegar. The unique design accommodates variations in bottle dimensions and ensures clean, efficient fills via a self-priming diaphragm pump. Available options include inert gas flush systems and variable flow rate control, enhancing versatility for diverse bottling needs. Constructed with food-grade components, these machines integrate easily into packaging and final conditioning departments. Not explosion-proof, they require a well-ventilated setup and regular cleaning, achievable in under 8 minutes, to enable quick changeovers between products. Built in California, each unit is customized to order, with lead times ranging from one to four weeks.
