Container feeding
Bottles, jars or cans are fed manually or by conveyor according to project scale.
Industry Packaging Line Solution
Food & Beverage Filling Line Solutions
Food and beverage products place different demands on the same packaging line. Sauce may contain particles, honey is sticky, edible oil needs clean cut-off, and juice or water usually needs faster bottle flow. LEKA configures food and beverage filling lines around product behavior, hygiene needs, container type and daily output.
Sauce
chili sauce
edible oil
cooking oil
honey
syrup
juice
Output Range1000-3000 containers/hour
Final output depends on sample, fill volume, product behavior and layout.
AutomationLine Integration
Filling, capping, labeling and packing modules can be connected by project.
Capacity Options1000-3000 BPH

Product Fit
Choose the filling structure around real product behavior.
Different liquids need different filling structures. These tables help buyers compare product behavior, container range, filling method and line capacity before requesting a proposal.
| Suitable Products | Product Behavior | Packaging Challenge | Recommended Handling |
|---|---|---|---|
Sauce and Condiments |
Viscous, sticky or may contain small particles. |
The line must reduce dripping, blockage and cleaning difficulty. |
Servo piston filling, hopper mixing, heating and anti-drip nozzles can be reviewed. |
Edible Oil and Vinegar |
Free-flowing liquid with clean cut-off requirement. |
Bottle neck cleanliness and stable accuracy matter for retail packs. |
Pump, piston or flowmeter filling with anti-drip control can be configured. |
Honey and Syrup |
High viscosity and slow flow. |
Filling speed and clean cut-off should be confirmed by sample test. |
Heated piston, pump filling or larger nozzles can be reviewed. |
Filling Method
Match filling technology to viscosity, foam, particles and accuracy needs.
The final machine is confirmed after product sample review, but this guide shows the typical direction for common production requirements.
| Filling Solution | Suitable Products | Best For | Project Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Piston Filling |
Sauce, paste, honey, syrup and viscous food products. |
Accurate filling for thick products. |
Can add hopper stirring, heating and anti-drip cutoff. |
Pump or Flowmeter Filling |
Edible oil, vinegar, juice and low-viscosity food liquids. |
Clean filling for free-flowing products. |
Selection depends on accuracy, filling volume and cleaning requirements. |
Hot-Fill or Sanitary Review |
Products that need temperature control or stronger cleaning access. |
Food projects with hygiene and process requirements. |
Confirm product temperature, cleaning method and contact material before design. |
Container Range
Plan containers, closures and labels as one connected line.
Container size, opening, stability, cap format and label position all affect machine selection and conveyor layout.
| Container Type | Volume Range | Closure Options | Labeling Options | Handling Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Bottles and Jars |
100ml-5L |
Screw caps, lug caps, press caps or pump caps by sample. |
Wrap-around, front-back, sleeve or top labels. |
Sauce, oil, honey and beverage products need different filling structures after sample review. |
Jerry Cans and Food Pails |
5L-25L |
Screw caps, press lids or pail lids. |
Front-back labels, side labels or batch coding. |
Large food containers may need slower filling, stronger conveyors and clean packing access. |
Finished Cartons |
LEKA-CS reference: L150-500mm / W150-500mm / H120-500mm |
Tape sealing after product packing. |
Carton label or shipping label. |
Carton sealing uses 18m/min belt speed reference; practical output depends on carton loading. |
Capacity Planning
Compare line levels before confirming automation scope.
A practical line proposal should match output target, floor space, operator plan, packing end and later capacity growth needs.
