Capacity configuration
24000BPH Bottled Water Filling Line
A 24000BPH bottled water filling line is a high-output project whose value depends on repeatable finished-pack production. The nominal flow is 400 bottles per minute. Bottle quality, replenishment, inspection, pallet handling and maintenance access must support that flow alongside the rinsing, filling and capping equipment.
Project fit
Who This Capacity Is For
Use this option when the documented production schedule and site infrastructure justify the duty. It is not a default upgrade from a smaller line.
- A producer with a demonstrated high-volume order mix and suitable operating hours.
- A plant planning integrated packing and a defined pallet-handling interface.
- A project with engineering ownership of utilities, quality checks, training and maintenance readiness.
Recommended Configuration
| Main filling machine | Still-water rinsing, filling and capping monoblock; head counts selected from approved formats and required output. |
|---|---|
| Water type | Purified water, mineral water or other non-carbonated bottled water |
| Bottle handling | Air conveyor for empty PET bottles and flat conveyor for filled bottles |
| Labeling | Sleeve, OPP or adhesive labeling according to packaging design |
| Packing | Shrink wrapping, carton packing or other market-specific packing option |
| Line layout | Needs engineering review of plant space, operator routes, buffer zones and finished goods flow |
Typical Technical Parameters
| Target capacity | 24000BPH for suitable PET bottle size and stable utilities |
|---|---|
| Bottle volume | Confirm each launch bottle by drawing/sample, closure, handling dimensions and tested format-specific output. |
| Bottle neck | Customized according to neck finish and cap size |
| Filling method | Gravity or micro-negative pressure filling for still water |
| Control system | PLC and touch screen control, configured by project requirements |
| Power and air | Calculated from final high-speed machine selection and complete packaging configuration. Compressed air, water supply, drainage and electrical load should be confirmed early |
| Operators | Define staffing from actual replenishment, quality, changeover and finished-pack handling tasks. |
Plan the 24000BPH Bottle-to-Pallet Flow
These reference calculations expose handling requirements; they do not set machine specifications or a guaranteed shift output.
Plan the 24000BPH Bottle-to-Pallet Flow - Planning Table
| Flow measure | Calculation | Planning consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Bottles | 24,000 / 60 = 400 bottles/minute | Transfers and inspection need the approved format at this duty. |
| 12-bottle packs | 33.33 packs/minute | The packer and finished-pack route must be designed together. |
| 24-bottle packs | 16.67 packs/minute | Check material, pack geometry and collation independently. |
| 500ml product water | 12,000 L/hour inside bottles | This is not a complete treatment or raw-water specification. |
| Illustrative good shift | 24,000 x 7 x 0.80 = 134,400 bottles | Uses seven net production hours and an illustrative 80% factor. |
Pallet Handling Can Restrict a Fast Filling Line
Consider a hypothetical 12-bottle pack and 120 packs per pallet. At 33.33 packs/minute, a pallet-equivalent leaves the line about every 3.6 minutes at nominal flow. The 120-pack pattern is an illustration, not an approved pallet design. Actual bottle, pack, load stability and handling requirements determine the pattern.
- Specify pallet supply, stacking, wrapping, labeling and removal interfaces where required.
- Include the normal pallet-change cycle and material replenishment in the sustained-output review.
- Reserve a safe route for finished loads without blocking service access or incoming packaging materials.
Define Performance for Every Launch SKU
A high headline rate on one bottle does not validate the entire range. Tie the proposal to a controlled bottle, closure, label and pack schedule. Ask for the acceptance method as well as the target speed.
Define Performance for Every Launch SKU - Planning Table
| Decision | Evidence to request | Avoid this assumption |
|---|---|---|
| Format rate | Good-output target and conditions for each approved SKU. | The 500ml reference speed also applies to larger bottles. |
| Changeover | Parts, settings, people and time from last good pack to the next accepted format. | A filler adjustment time represents a whole-line change. |
| Inspection and rejects | Agreed inspection points, reject criteria, collection and record method. | An optional inspection machine automatically validates every quality requirement. |
| Restart | Controlled stop/restart procedure and quality checks with safe operating states. | The highest speed displayed during a trial establishes reliable production. |
Prepare Maintenance and Site Readiness Before Commissioning
Availability depends on tasks outside the nominal running cycle. Define the maintenance package and who is responsible for the site interfaces. Local installation and safety requirements must be reviewed by the responsible qualified parties.
Prepare Maintenance and Site Readiness Before Commissioning - Planning Table
| Readiness item | Before installation | Before production handover |
|---|---|---|
| Utilities | Approved load/demand schedule, connection coordinates and point-of-use conditions. | Verify the agreed operating conditions with relevant shared plant loads. |
| Access | Machine service envelopes, change-parts storage and component-removal routes. | Confirm that installed pipes, guards and conveyors do not obstruct planned maintenance. |
| Spares and documentation | Part identifiers, recommended stock basis, manuals and drawing deliverables. | Record delivered parts, settings backups and remaining document issues. |
| People and test materials | Training scope, operators and approved bottles, caps, labels and packaging. | Witness agreed tests and record issues, owners and closure evidence. |
Do Not Substitute Extra Speed for a Validated Schedule
Compare 18000BPH and 24000BPH using the same order mix, hours, loss assumptions and finished-pack scope. If shorter format runs create frequent changes, more nominal capacity may not solve the scheduling problem. If packing is permanently undersized, a longer buffer only delays the stop. Use the capacity guide and layout review together.
Request a 24000BPH Engineering and Quotation Review
Provide demand by SKU, production windows, bottle and pack drawings, available utilities, workshop plan and destination. Ask the equipment list to name included, retained and excluded functions through the pallet interface. Request a 24000BPH proposal with agreed test conditions, service scope and a list of unresolved inputs.
Buyer questions
Questions Buyers Ask Before Quotation
How many bottles per minute is 24000BPH?
It is 400 bottles per minute at the nominal reference rate. Good finished output depends on approved formats, supply conditions, quality, stops and downstream handling.
How many pallets will the line produce?
Calculate from good packs and the approved packs-per-pallet pattern. For illustration only, 33.33 twelve-bottle packs per minute and 120 packs per pallet correspond to one pallet-equivalent every 3.6 minutes before losses.
Does 24000BPH automatically require a robot palletizer?
No particular machine is established by BPH alone. Define pack flow, load pattern, normal handling cycles, staffing, space and safe operation, then select a handling solution that sustains the agreed duty.
How much product water does 24000BPH at 500ml use?
The bottles contain 12,000 liters per hour at nominal rate. Treatment and utilities must also address the separately defined process losses, rinse and cleaning duties, storage and simultaneous demands.
How should I compare an 18000BPH and 24000BPH quotation?
Use the same formats, good-output requirement, hours, labeling, pack/pallet boundary, utilities and services. Check whether demand and site capability justify the extra nominal capacity, and compare the complete installed scope rather than filler prices alone.
