Bottle Fillers
Filler Fillstar LXi
Fillstar LXi filler fills both still and carbonated drinks providing excellent safety and hygiene for both still and carbonated liquids owing to its clean, hygienic design
Excellent safety, excellent dosing accuracy
The Fillstar LXi filler provides excellent safety and hygiene standards for both still and carbonated liquids.
The products are filled with contact between the filling valve and the bottle. The product inside the toroidal tank is pushed to the filling valves by an overpressure of inert gas. The Fillstar LXi filler also uses a magnetic flow meter to accurately control the dosing phase to meet each product’s requirements. Even difficult, foaming products - such as CSD - can be filled at ambient temperature with no loss of speed. This reduces the need for chilling so saves power consumption and costs. When filling still products the air return uses a dedicated separate channel.
Bottles are handled using the NeckFlex system that suspends bottles during the process and provides very quick changeover for any container with the same neck design.
Improved hygiene
The Fillstar LXi fillers have an automatic foaming system and a HEPA filter overpressure (available as an option) to maintain a high hygiene standard. All parts in contact with the product are made from Aisi 304 stainless steel. Separate glass guards ensure maximum accessibility for the operators. The machine has an open design, with no basement so is easy to access and maintain and does not allow the accumulation of stagnant product.
Dummy bottle insertion and extraction for closed-loop CIP are completely automatic.

Around the world in seven questions: New foods we’ll love
Last year was not a year of hyped-up headlines for alternative proteins. Perhaps that is precisely why it was an important year for food biotech, the biotechnology behind everyday foods and ingredients. While the sector worked through a difficult funding environment, approvals were still granted, pilot lines set up and new platforms tested in the background. In short: headlines are turning into infrastructure. Frederieke Reiners heads GEA’s New Food business. She and her team work at the intersection of biotechnology and industrial food production.
