Mineral Water Plant

(Projects)

Page 1 2
INTRODUCTION

The demand for mineral water is increasing at a rapid rate, as people become more
health conscious and take precautions against water borne diseases.
Bottled mineral water provides easy transportability and assured water quality.

THE PROJECT INVOLVES MACHINERY FOR

• PURIFYING WATER
• BOTTLE MANUFACTURING.
• BOTTLING PURIFIED WATER.
• LABELLING

CAPACITY

The plant is being designed for minimum economically viable capacity, such that
the capital outlay is optimized.
The capacity of the various units are as under:
- Purification: 1000 litrers / hour i.e. 8000 litres / 8 hour shift
- Bottle Manufacturing: 550 Bottles per hour per machine. 2 nos. machines will
give 1100 bottles per hour i.e. 8800 bottles per 8 hour shift.
Bottling : 24 Bottles per minute of 1000 ml. i.e. 1440 Bottles / hour i.e. 11520
-
Bottles per 8 hour shift.
- Labelling : Heat Shrink Tunnel would handle 1000 Bottles per hour.
All the 4 capacities have been nearly matched - for any adjustments some of the
machines can be run for longer duration.

PROCESS FLOW

The plant has 6 components :

1] Purification: Water received from the external source is passed through the
purification plant and stored in a stainless steel tank. Thereafter it is fed to the
bottling section - and continuos operation achieved.
2] Bottle Manufacturing: Pet preforms are blown into bottles and a sufficient number
of bottles, say 1000 nos., kept ready while the machine continues to produce more
during the shift , when the bottling has been started.
3] Rinsing - Filling - Capping: The bottles are fed into the machine which
automatically rinses, fills and screws the cap on it. Caps are stamped with the date
of manufacture and expiry before being put into the hopper for screwing on to the
bottle.
4] Labeling: We are proposing use of heat shrink labels and tamper evident heat
shrink sleeve on the neck of each bottle.
The label and the neck sleeve are to be manually put on the bottles which will then
pass through the shrink tunnels and onto packing conveyer.
Expiry date and batch number could be printed on labels or caps prior to their being
put on the bottles.
5] Heat Shrinking: The bottles are passed through heat shrink tunnel so that the
label and neck sleeve, shrink and stick to the bottles.
6] Final Packing: This could be in cartons - done manually - and no machines have
been provided for it.

MACHINES / EQUIPMENT OFFERED

The various machines and equipment being offered by us is explicitly listed here.

If the quality of the raw water is good it may not be necessary to use some of the
above equipment and consequently the cost can come down. Tanks for Raw water,
and alum dosing are to be provided by the client. The output water purification
would be in line with WHO specifications - however final results depend on input
water quality.
Bottle Manufacturing Section:
To achieve 1100 nos. bottles per hour production.
Description Quantity
Stretch Blowing Machine: 2
upto 2 ltr. Capacity
(Preform Manual Loading Machine from
Conveyor to Stretch Blowing Machine)
- 2 cavity bottle upto 2 ltr. (Neck dia upto 46 mm)
- Hydro-pneumatic locking system
- With Infrared heating system conveyor and
separate Control Panel with Microprocessor.
- Production : 550 Bottle / Hour
- Model No. TPD 2000
Refrigeration Unit : (Chiller) 2
Cooling Capacity : 1 Ton;
(Standard Make)
Air Compressor : 2
with after cooler and moisture separator
Mould sets : 2
Double Cavity 1.5 ltr. Round shape mould in
aluminium
Double Cavity 1 ltr. Round shape mould in
aluminium
Double Cavity 500 ml. Round shape mould in
aluminium
Approx. Spares for 1 Year 2
Total Cost USD 48500/-

It is possible that the air compressor be bought locally.

We are in a position to offer automatic moulding machines also.
However that would result in higher investment hence is not recommended at the
initial stages.

Bottling Section :
This section receives the empty bottles, rinses them, fills and caps them.
Description Quantity
Stainless Steel Conveyor: 1
Made of S.S, 8 meter long for conveying of
empty washed bottles onto the filling machine.
The different operations like rinsing, filling,
capping are done on the conveyor.
Electrical Details: 0.5 H.P. with variable speed
drive..
Rinsing, Filling, Capping: 1
This machine is designed to fill 24 bottles per
minute for 1 ltr bottle & is capable to fill 500 ml,
1000 ml, 1500 ml bottles. Machine speed is
depended on the volume to be filled.
The bottles are holded in groups of 6 & moved on
the conveyor together.
These grouped bottles are rinsed by means of
spraying pressurized water inside the bottle.
After Rincing the bottles are again placed on the
conveyor & are loaded on the filling & capping
machine one by one.
Filling & capping takes place by indexing
mechanism. There are total 8 indexes.
Change parts for 500 ml and 1500 ml 1 set each 1 set each
Spare for item 2 for 2 years

Total cost USD 33,300/-
