Semi Automatic Rotary Bottle Washing Machine

The Semi Automatic Rotary Bottle Washing Machine manufactured by Technogen Enterprise is designed for internal and external washing of glass and compatible plastic bottles used in industrial packaging operations. It is a practical option for manufacturers requiring controlled bottle washing at lower production volumes without the investment in a fully automatic bottle washing line.

The machine operates through a rotary intermittent indexing mechanism driven by a Geneva system. Operators manually load empty bottles into the washing pockets and remove them following the washing sequence. The intermittent movement positions containers at the washing stations, where the selected water and air media are applied through dedicated spray arrangements.

The standard configuration provides four internal washing operations, one external washing operation and one air washing operation. The specified water washing sequence includes fresh water for the first and third internal washes, hot detergent for the second wash, and DM or DI water for the fourth wash. Fresh water is also specified for external bottle washing. The sequence can be customized according to customer requirements.

The machine uses stationary washing nozzles, reducing movement of the spray assemblies and helping avoid contact between nozzles and bottle necks. High-pressure spray nozzles direct washing media toward the appropriate bottle surfaces. Individual solenoid valves provide control of the designated washing cycles.

Designed for both round and flat bottles, the machine accommodates bottle diameters of 24 mm to 100 mm, neck diameters of 20 mm to 40 mm, and bottle heights up to 290 mm. Its specified production capacity is 60 to 100 bottles per minute, depending on operator efficiency and handling conditions.

To simplify maintenance access, the washing pumps and tanks are described as mounted on a portable support stand. Higher-capacity centrifugal pumps are described for larger-bottle washing applications, and water recycling can be incorporated according to the required washing process.

Technogen Enterprise, based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, is a manufacturer, supplier and exporter of bottle washing machines for packaging operations requiring flexible manual handling, adjustable washing sequences and mechanically controlled rotary operation.
