01Drinking Water Production Process
Well water and tap water purification, from source testing through to hygienic bottling.
Every drinking-water project starts with the raw water itself. Source-water hardness, salinity, turbidity, iron, manganese and microbiology determine the process route, so a recent raw-water analysis is the first thing Seven Zillions asks for. Without it, equipment can be selected that delivers unstable water quality, low recovery or unnecessary operating cost.
Treatment is then built in three parts. Pretreatment prepares the feed water — multi-media filters, activated carbon, softener and iron or manganese removal. Deep treatment does the actual purification through membrane separation or ion exchange. Terminal treatment with ozone and UV finishes the water before it is stored and sent to the filling line.
The final stage is hygienic bottling: blowing, rinsing, filling, capping, labelling, coding, packing and palletising. Acceptance is measured as correctly filled, closed, labeled and packed product — not as the speed printed on any single machine.
Natural Mineral Water Production Line Process
A complete practical guide from protected source to finished bottle.
A mineral water line is judged on continuity. The base configuration is rated at 3,600 bottles per hour, while the blowing system can run 6,000 to 70,000 pieces per hour depending on the mould — so buffer conveyors between blowing and filling are what keep the line balanced rather than idle.
Between those stages sits the tribloc: a mono-block that rinses the empty bottle, fills it and caps it in one continuous motion, with a cap online steriliser ensuring hygiene before sealing. Downstream, stick labeling, laser coding and PE film wrapping turn a filled bottle into a distributable pack.
For a plant running 24 hours, the practical constraints are people and materials. A fully automated line needs 20 to 25 employees per shift, and preform and cap supply has to be secured — otherwise a well-specified line still stops.
How to Plan a Beverage Filling Line
Capacity, utilities, bottle formats and the decisions that shape a reliable line.
Send the information that lets a line be sized around a real production plan: beverage list and processing method, container material and fill volumes, required saleable output per product, production hours and changeover frequency, floor space and destination voltage, inspection and palletising format, and your target installation date.
From that, Seven Zillions returns a recommended process flow, equipment list, layout concept, utility requirements, commercial quotation and delivery plan. Current equipment families cover approximately 2,000 to 36,000 containers per hour, but committed output depends on beverage, container size, closure, filling conditions and the complete line scope.
The decision that saves the most money is made first: whether one machine can serve several products. Juice and carbonated soft drinks generally need different processing and filling conditions, and a single line does not automatically handle PET, glass and cans. Change parts, transfers, closures and filling technology are confirmed against the approved package range before anything is built.
