Quick answer
Wet bottles before labelling starts with the bottle, not the machine. The most useful first step is to define the container, cleanliness requirement, output target and downstream process.
Checks before buying
Before comparing quotations, confirm the bottle size range, material, stability, whether the container can be inverted, and whether bottles must stay dry before filling or labelling.
- Bottle samples or drawings
- Target bottles per minute
- Air, water, drainage and power availability
Specification risks
Most problems appear when the rinser is selected before the line layout, filler speed, transfer heights and utilities have been checked.
How to compare routes
Compare air rinsers, water washers, rinse-dry machines and semi-automatic routes against the actual bottle and site conditions rather than only against headline machine speed.
Next step
Prepare bottle photos, line photographs, target output and a short process description so Lancing can suggest a practical route.
