Process Operation of Automatic Linear Bottle Washing Machine
Containers feed from the de-cartooning station are received on an In feed turn table. An in feed worm inverts container to neck down position and feeds them through a specially designed indexing device. The device carries the container forward and stops. Nozzles carrier enters into the container and activities the jet of water/air. The air/water flow is deactivated after the washing cycle is over. Device indexes the vials/bottles for next wash. A separate pumping station gives the right quantum of water at the desired pressure. Washed containers are again inverted to neck upward position to collect in out-feed tray/directly feed to tunnel.

FAQ of Automatic Linear Bottle Washing Machine
How does the Automatic Linear Bottle Washing Machine work?
Containers are fed via an infeed turntable and inverted to neck-down position. They move through an indexing device where nozzles enter the bottles to deliver jets of water and air in multiple stations. After each wash cycle, the flow stops during indexing to save utilities. Finally, bottles are re-inverted to neck-up position and discharged for further processing (e.g., into a filling line).
What are the available models and their production capacities?
We offer three standard models:
- ALBW 100: Up to 100 bottles per minute
- ALBW 150: Up to 150 bottles per minute
- ALBW 250: Up to 200 bottles per minute
All models come with 6 washing stations (customizable) and support quick changeover.
What materials are used and does it comply with GMP standards?
Yes, it is a complete cGMP model. All product contact parts are made from high-quality Stainless Steel 316L, while non-contact parts are Stainless Steel 304 or hard chrome plated. The machine features an acrylic-covered washing section, SS square pipe frame, and “No Container – No Washing” safety system.
What industries is this machine suitable for and what are its key benefits?
It is widely used in Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic, Food, Chemical, and allied industries. Key benefits include:
- Low water consumption
- Variable speed control via AC frequency drive
- Simultaneous internal & external washing
- Easy cleaning and minimum tool changeover
- Digital production counter
