Automatic decapping logic
The system should detect an incoming bottle, remove the old cap without unnecessary neck damage and collect residual caps away from the clean process. No-bottle/no-action logic and jam access should be visible in the proposal.
- Bottle presence detection
- Cap removal method
- Cap waste collection
- Neck and shoulder protection
- Jam and maintenance access
External brushing and spray
Brush rollers and spray can address outside soil on the body, shoulder, base and handle area. Coverage, solution recirculation and brush access must match the bottle geometry and expected contamination.
- Bottle rotation and stabilization
- Brush contact zones
- Spray coverage
- Recirculation tank and pump
- Brush replacement access
Manual versus automatic loading
Manual loading reduces equipment but retains lifting and pace variability. Automatic loading can reduce handling but adds orientation, conveyor, guarding and control requirements. Compare the complete operator task, not one machine alone.
- Bottle arrival orientation
- Lift and transfer risk
- Operator count and pace
- Buffer capacity
- Future automation interface
Reject bottles before deeper processing
Severely cracked, deformed, odorous or otherwise unacceptable bottles should leave the flow under the plant quality policy. The equipment configuration does not determine local rejection standards.
- Visible damage
- Neck damage
- Persistent odor or foreign matter
- Leakage
- Local quality-system criteria
Information needed for a quote
Send the bottle and cap basis, required BPH, bottle path, factory and utility information, destination and any module or support requirement. Unknown items can remain marked “to be confirmed.”
