Design of a Custom Rinsing Filling Capping Machine for Specialty Drinks

I’m looking for an engineer with experience in designing Rinsing Filling Capping Machines to undertake a custom project for a beverage production line that deals with Basil Seed Drinks and Nata de Coco with jelly chunks. Key Requirements: • A machine capable of handling two-phase filling processes: basil seeds/jelly chunks followed by the beverage, at a rate of 40 BPM for efficient rinsing and draining. • Adjustable rinsing capabilities to use air (ionized for particle discharge), water, or hot water, with the flexibility to choose between these options. • Advanced sensing and pneumatic systems to control bottle movement and filling, accommodating different bottle materials (glass and plastic). • A piston filler setup with a pneumatic cylinder, housing, rotary valve, and adjustable piston fillers (4-6) for the filling station. • An adaptable capping station with a vibrator-equipped hopper and chute for cap dispensing, capable of handling different cap types (screw cap, lug cap, ring-pull). • Integration capability with an existing lug cap machine and an interchangeable system for switching between capping methods. • Ease of use and efficiency in operation, maintenance, and cleaning. Additional Considerations: • Professionals with pre-existing machine designs that can be adjusted to fit these requirements are welcome, as this approach can be beneficial for both parties. • The focus is on practicality and cost-efficiency without compromising on quality and functionality. I’m open to suggestions and ready to collaborate closely to refine the design to fit these needs. If you have experience with such systems and are interested in a project that could potentially be a model for innovation, please reach out with your proposal. Scope of Work: - The selected freelancer will be responsible for designing the entire Rinsing Filling Capping Machine tailored to the project’s specifications. - Provide comprehensive manufacturing drawings for all components, ensuring that the design is conducive to fabrication methods such as sheet metal fabrication, laser cutting, and CNC machining. -The design must be straightforward to facilitate easy assembly after fabrication. - A complete Bill of Materials (BOM) must be included, detailing every component required for the machine’s assembly and operation. - Particular attention must be paid to the tolerances necessary for the proper function of the machine to ensure quality and reliability in its operation.
