5 Gallon Water Filling Line

Our 5-gallon water filling line integrates washing, filling, and capping into one efficient system. Designed for durability and hygiene, it ensures consistent quality, high output, and reduced labor, making it the ideal solution for large-volume water production.

Water Treatment System

The water treatment process is typically divided into three stages: pretreatment, deep treatment, and final treatment. The pretreatment stage often includes multi-media filters, activated carbon filters, softeners, iron and manganese removal filters, as well as ultra-filtration and micro-filtration. The deep treatment stage mainly involves membrane filtration and ion exchange to further purify the water. The final treatment stage applies ozone sterilization, UV disinfection, and other advanced technologies to ensure water safety and quality. This system is widely applicable in food and beverage production, brewing, pharmaceutical-grade purified water, and seawater desalination projects, providing reliable solutions for diverse industries.

Blow Molding System

The continuous rotary preform feeding system is seamlessly integrated with the machine platform, minimizing floor space while maintaining a simple and reliable structure without preform overturning. Equipped with a continuous heating system, each preform is spaced at 38 mm, maximizing the utilization of lamp tube heating and significantly improving energy efficiency. A high-performance servo motor ensures smooth high-speed operation with precise positioning for consistent bottle quality. This machine is ideal for producing PET bottles for drinking water, carbonated beverages, fruit juice, tea, milk, and more, with production capacities ranging from 2,000 BPH to 12,000 BPH based on 500ml bottles.

5 Gallon Water Filling System

This machine is mainly used in 5-gallon bottled water production lines. It adopts advanced PLC control for fully automatic operation. The inlet system is equipped with a bottle loading unit, while the outlet part uses a smooth conveying system to ensure stable bottle transfer. The production speed can be flexibly adjusted and synchronized with the main inverter for efficient performance. This machine is suitable for 5-gallon bottled drinking water and purified water, with production capacities ranging from 300 BPH to 1,200 BPH depending on customer requirements.

Labeling System

The continuous rotary preform feeding system is seamlessly integrated with the machine platform, minimizing floor space while maintaining a simple and reliable structure without preform overturning. Equipped with a continuous heating system, each preform is spaced at 38 mm, maximizing the utilization of lamp tube heating and significantly improving energy efficiency. A high-performance servo motor ensures smooth high-speed operation with precise positioning for consistent bottle quality. This machine is ideal for producing PET bottles for drinking water, carbonated beverages, fruit juice, tea, milk, and more, with production capacities ranging from 2,000 BPH to 12,000 BPH based on 500ml bottles.

Packaging System

The shrink wrapping machine is designed for automatic film packaging of bottled water, beverages, and other products. It uses high-quality shrink film to bundle bottles firmly together, providing stable packaging for easy handling, transportation, and storage. With advanced heating and cooling technology, the machine ensures tight, smooth, and durable wrapping while reducing film consumption. It offers high efficiency, simple operation, and reliable performance, making it an ideal choice for modern beverage and water production lines.

What is a 5 gallon water filling machine and how does it work?
A 5 gallon filling machine is an automatic line for 18.9–20L bottled water. It completes washing, disinfecting, filling and capping to keep water clean, save labor, and ensure accurate volume.
Choose by capacity, budget, factory size, material (SUS304/316), automation level, and after-sales service. Small plants use 60–150BPH; large factories choose 300–1200BPH.
It should use food-grade stainless steel, chemical and pure-water rinsing, UV or ozone sterilizing, and CIP cleaning to avoid contamination and meet drinking water standards.
Capacity ranges from 60 to 1200BPH. Higher capacity machines reduce labor cost, increase efficiency, and include full automatic functions like decapping, washing, filling, capping and palletizing.
Installation is simple with layout guidance and onsite or online training. Daily maintenance includes cleaning, replacing filters, lubricating parts, and using spare parts when needed.
