beverage filling equipment

In the competitive world of wine and beverage production, every detail matters—from the aroma of the vintage to the precision of its bottling. For growing wineries and beverage producers, manual bottling methods are no longer efficient. They are slow, labor-intensive, and often lead to inconsistent results.

The ZONESUN ZS-AFC883W Automatic Wine Bottle Rinsing, Filling, and Corking Machine offers a complete bottling solution, helping you increase production speed, maintain product hygiene, and reduce operational costs—all in one compact, automated system.

The Background: Bottling as a Production Bottleneck

Wine bottling is more than just packaging—it’s about preserving flavor, ensuring safety, and presenting professionalism. Yet, many producers still rely on outdated semi-automatic or manual processes, which come with common problems:

  • Time-consuming bottle cleaning

  • Inconsistent fill levels

  • Labor-intensive corking

  • Product waste and spillage

  • Limited daily output

These challenges don’t just slow your growth—they can also compromise product quality and brand reputation.

What Is the ZS-AFC883W Wine Bottling Machine?

The ZS-AFC883W is a fully automatic 3-in-1 monoblock system designed specifically for bottling wine and similar beverages. It integrates:

  1. Bottle Rinsing – Automatically cleans glass bottles with filtered water or sanitizing solution

  2. Gravity Filling – Fills each bottle with precision, minimizing bubbles and oxidation

  3. Corking – Presses corks (natural or synthetic) securely into each bottle

This automation reduces manual handling and ensures a smooth, consistent workflow from start to finish.

Who Needs This Machine?

This solution is ideal for:

  • Boutique and mid-sized wineries

  • Craft beverage makers (fruit wine, liqueurs, spirits)

  • Olive oil and vinegar producers

  • Glass bottle packaging lines

If you're facing slow production speed, quality inconsistency, or high labor costs, this machine solves them all in one go.

Key Advantages of the ZS-AFC883W

1. Three Functions, One Machine

Instead of purchasing and operating separate machines for rinsing, filling, and corking, the ZS-AFC883W combines all three, saving valuable floor space and simplifying your workflow.

2. Fast and Consistent Output

With a processing capacity of up to 2200 bottles per hour, you can significantly increase production without adding staff or extending work hours.

3. Clean and Hygienic Design

Made of SUS304 stainless steel, the system is corrosion-resistant, food-safe, and easy to sanitize—ideal for wine and food-grade production lines.

4. Precision Filling Technology

Utilizing gravity filling, the machine ensures smooth, bubble-free filling that maintains the wine’s integrity and reduces loss due to spillage or foaming.

5. Automatic Cork Insertion

Whether you're using natural corks or synthetic alternatives, the corking head delivers secure, airtight seals—critical for preserving wine quality and shelf life.

6. Customizable to Your Bottles

ZONESUN offers mold customization for different bottle diameters, heights, and cork types, ensuring perfect compatibility with your packaging design.
