Distilled Spirits Filler

Principle Of Operation
Filling principle especially designed for spirits:
  • Pure Gravity filler without vacuum and suitable to fill under low pressure
  • Bottle’s neck handling
  • The standard PERRIER grippers ensure a perfect and reliable connection between bottles and Filling nozzles PERRIER
  • Filling valves:
    • Adjustable filling speeds to reduce foam effect as much as possible, to ensure best conditions for leveling
    • Fixed nozzles - easy to clean - without parts in movement
    • Ring bowl: ring bowl with restricted section without inner wall nor crossing parts; constant filling product height for each filling valve
  • Product circuit: insignificant alcohol strength ( no vacuum)
  • Structure of filling carousel: open design - easy to clean
  • Cleaning in place: complete on all fluid circuits, cleaning in both directions (flow and counter flow) of filling product and ring bowl.
Design Considerations
The PERRIER neck-gripping process facilitates perfect nozzle-to-neck alignment even for containers with imperfect geometry (i.e. leaning neck). This utility, inherent to the design, ensures the nozzle does not come into contact with the finish of the bottle. The risk of chipped finish is therefore greatly reduced. The “No bottle – No Fill” feature is standard on each Filler.
Inherent Machine Quality
In addition to design considerations, the high quality for which our machines are famous is achieved by selecting the best materials for the application. We also use the most modern manufacturing methods available and make our parts to very close tolerances. Our employees have many years of experience building the equipment to high standards of performance and take personal pride in ensuring the integrity of the PERRIER brand.
Process Integrity

The distilled spirits industry is very diverse yet it shares a common primary objective: Maintaining the integrity of the product that has been crafted by experts with a passion for excellence.

Our equipment is developed thru the input and in close cooperation with the most prominent companies in the industry. It incorporates many patented solutions and features to ensure superior performance and product integrity. Both the rinser and the filler are regarded as "best-in-class" equipment and are the cornerstones of the best monoblock available.

Quick Change Considerations
Our machines are designed and built to support the most progressive Quick Change concepts. The PERRIER changeover process is a true Quick Change process (not just tool-less) and supports Vertical Start up Concept. Once the setup is optimized during the first production run on a given format, it can be exactly replicated during the next changeover.
Environmental Considerations
Our machines are designed to be very lean and use the least possible energy to accomplish the task. PERRIER rinsers are designed to recapture the liquid rinsing media, filter it and reuse it. The longevity of the machine also minimizes waste by ensuring that the resources are used efficiently.
Safety
We take safety seriously and all our machines meet or exceed the safety requirements of the respective jurisdiction. In addition, PERRIER machines feature various safety provisions that might not be required by law, but are very effective in enhancing the safety of the operating crew. We also have experience in supplying machines for hazardous locations in diverse jurisdictions.
Life Cycle Support
We strive to provide the most reliable equipment in the industry, however, even our machines need to be serviced. We have a comprehensive program in place to provide world class service support to our customers. We maintain impeccable records on each and every machine, maintain critical spares inventory and offer fast turn around on tooling. Our service department offers training programs as well as installation and overhaul services. In addition we offer conversion and upgrade kits to ensure that PERRIER machines meet the changing needs of the customer.

Distilled Spirits Filler

Principle Of Operation
The containers are fed into the machine via feedscrew and infeed star. As they enter the main turret the bottles are clamped by the neck. The grippers are made of a high performance polymer to ensure long life and no damage to glass containers. The machine inverts the bottles to the upside- down position, nozzles penetrate the neck of the container and the rinsing begins. The duration of the rinsing phase depends on the media. Where liquid media is used the rinsing time is shorter (liquid tends to be more effective) followed by the draining phase. At the end of the draining phase the bottle is inverted to the upright position and during this inversion the last drops of liquid are vacuumed out. Finally, the bottles are transferred to the discharge star and placed on the discharge conveyor.
