Conveyor System
Cooling Tunnel
The cooling tunnel is mostly used for cooling after hot filling. High-temperature bottles after inverted sterilization enter the tunnel and get sprayed by multi-layer circulating cold water to rapidly cool bottles and liquid, stop continuous high-temperature reaction, stabilize beverage quality and prevent bottle thermal deformation. Cooling water is recycled and filtered for water and energy saving.
Core Features
What this machine is built to handle.
Cooling Tunnel is part of the Conveyor System scope. It can be configured with upstream and downstream equipment according to product type, package format, target capacity and site layout.
Sealed chamber, circulating water filtration
Full-area spraying, uniform coverage
Variable frequency conveying, independent water circulation
Application
- For PET bottle hot filling lines of fruit juice and tea drinks for rapid cooling after hot filling, also applicable for cooling after pasteurization.
Advantage
- 1. Gradient cooling to avoid PET bottle shrinkage and deformation caused by sudden temperature drop;
- 2. Recycled water greatly saves water consumption;
- 3. High cooling efficiency and shorter production line footprint;
- 4. Sealed spraying prevents workshop water accumulation;
- 5. Easy cleaning and prevents algae growth.

Use these related machines to shape a complete line from pretreatment and filling through labeling, packaging and end-of-line handling.
Conveyor System
Aseptic Empty Bottle Air Conveyor
The aseptic empty bottle air conveyor transports empty PET bottles from the bottle blower to the filler by clean sterile airflow. No bottle carriers are needed; bottles are driven by air flow. Equipped with air filtration and sterilization modules, it prevents secondary contamination of empty bottles during conveying. It is widely matched with aseptic filling and ultra-clean filling lines.
Conveyor System
Bottle Conveyors
Bottle conveyors are general conveying equipment for complete beverage production lines. It connects bottle blowing, filling, labeling and packaging sections to stably transport empty/filled PET bottles, glass bottles and cans. Using slat chain conveyor, it supports bottle accumulation, splitting, combining, turning and lifting to realize continuous material flow, acting as basic auxiliary equipment of automatic beverage lines.
Conveyor System
Tilting Conveyors System
The tilting conveyor system is matched with hot filling lines. After filling and capping, bottles are tilted upside down. The high-temperature liquid inside sterilizes the inner surface of caps. After a holding period, bottles are turned upright again to kill residual microorganisms on caps and avoid secondary contamination. It is essential auxiliary equipment for hot filling process.
