Carbonation and Filling System
A compact carbonation and filling system for beverage trials and small-batch package validation.
Up to 11 g/L carbon dioxide with adjustable filling pressure and 0.35-2.0 L bottle compatibility.
Equipment Role
The pilot-scale all-in-one carbonator-filler helps beverage teams test carbonation level, filling pressure, cooling temperature, formula stability, and package behavior without committing to a production filling line.
Integrated carbonation and filling keeps pilot campaigns fast and contained.
Adjustable filling pressure from 0-3.5 bar supports sparkling beverage development.
Pre-mix and post-mix operating modes help compare formula and carbonation strategies.
Configuration Notes
Strong equipment selection starts with product behavior, utility limits, cleaning expectations, and the measurements required for scale-up.
Cold product improves CO2 absorption and filling consistency.
Bottle shape, cap type, fill level, and pressure rating should be checked early.
Measure CO2 before and after filling to understand foam, pressure, and retention behavior.
