Description
Equipment Overview
The GAI 5031FM-BIER is a high-performance mechanical monobloc designed for bottling carbonated beverages into glass containers. Featuring an integrated rotary rinser, isobaric counterpressure filling carousel, and a 3-head AROL crowner, it delivers hygienic filling with low O₂ pickup and smooth rotary motion. Built entirely from AISI 304 stainless steel, it is optimized for clean-in-place (CIP), sanitation, and reliable continuous operation.
