Precision Wine & Liquor Filling Machinery Built in the USA Since 1959
At Filling Equipment Company, Inc., we manufacture a comprehensive range of custom-engineered rotary fillers and inline liquid filling machines specifically developed for commercial wine producers and spirit distilleries. With over 65 years of engineering experience, our bottling systems satisfy the rigorous production speeds, fill-accuracy standards, and sanitary demands required by global alcoholic beverage operations.
Whether you are packaging delicate table wines, high-proof spirits, distilled liquors, or RTD (Ready-to-Drink) alcoholic beverages, our filling equipment prevents oxygen absorption, preserves alcohol proof consistency, and guarantees crisp, clean fill lines across glass and PET containers.
Engineered Solutions for Distilleries & Commercial Wineries
Bottling wine and spirits involves distinct challenges: maintaining consistent visual fill levels in premium glass bottles, minimizing product agitation, preventing oxidation, and complying with stringent sanitary standards. Our machinery solves these issues through specialized pneumatic and gravity-overflow designs.
Key Machine Features & Technical Capabilities
- Sanitary Construction: 316L stainless steel liquid contact parts, food-grade seals, and polished manifolds designed for easy CIP (Clean-in-Place) sanitation cycles.
- Level-Sensing Overflow Technology: Assures uniform fill height across glass bottles, even with slight internal glass volume variations.
- Explosion-Proof Options: Pneumatic drives and explosion-proof electrical enclosures (Class 1, Division 1 rated) designed safely for high-proof spirits and liquors.
- Zero-Drip Nozzle Systems: Prevents costly liquid waste, bottle shoulder contamination, and sticky container necks during high-speed runs.
- Rapid Container Changeovers: Tool-less adjustments allow fast switching between standard 750ml wine bottles, 50ml mini spirits, 1L bottles, and 1.75L handles.
