Th...Rob,<br /><br />The bottling line is a fascinating place!<br />This particular machine in not their regular bottling machine.<br />It is a portable hand version that they really only use for special occasions like the really fresh sake (literally bottled the morning after pressing), like the one in this post. They have a larger semi-automated plant where they bottle most of their sakes.<br /><br />It looks like you are in the bottling business, so you probably know more about the system than I do, but from what I could tell it was in fact a "fill to level" system fed by either gravity, or syphon, with a larger piston pump pumping the to be bottled sake from the larger storage tank to the smaller fill tank (seen in the picture above) on the machine.<br /><br />As far as I can tell, the overflow system is what is used in most of the breweries in Japan (certainly all the one I have visited).<br /><br />Thank you for your comment!<br />Cheers<br /><br />Staff CarlinMeishu no Yutakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02298450385535103711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6592645943354393248.post-54703926697317751482012-08-17T22:51:49.933+09:002012-08-17T22:51:49.933+09:00If I get the chance, I’d want to work with the bot...If I get the chance, I’d want to work with the bottling machine. I’d love to watch the bottles go around. It’s like they’re dancing. Hehe. Anyhow, is that an overflow bottling machine? It’s also called a “fill to level” bottling machine, which is relatively easy to operate. What it does is it fills a bottle to a target fill height.Rob Fecklerhttp://www.fillingequipment.com/capping-machines.htmlnoreply@blogger.com
