Revolutionary filling technology as part of a resource-saving brewery of the future. Released cooling energy that can be used intelligently in another area. A reduced microbiological risk during filling. Last but not least: Filling and capping in a single unit, in less than five seconds, and this at ambient temperatures. When it comes to the Dynafill, the list of true unique selling points is long –and it soon becomes clear: This machine makes it possible to achieve completely new energy and line concepts.

At a glance

• Combined filling and capping process on one single machine
• Maximum speed: 80,000 containers per hour
• The Dynafill enables the following:
  • Filling temperatures of up to 30 °C
  • Reduced energy requirement in the entire line
  • Innovative line concepts

Filling and capping in one functional unit: what started out approximately ten years ago as a vision became reality in 2017 with the presentation of the first ever machine at the drinktec. Krones has since taken the Dynafillto series maturity, tested it in the field under the most diverse conditions and then further developed it based on the valuable feedback of experienced bottling companies.

Innovative line and block synchronisation concepts 

In future, the Dynafill enables a higher total line output than conventional systems: Up to 80,000 containers per hour can be handled as the Dynafill principle allows for completely new planning approaches: from the elimination of accumulation and emptying sections through to the merging of a previously required double line. 

Reduced space requirement

Thanks to the 2-in-1 principle, the Dynafill requires substantially less space than comparable combined filler-capper units. As the filler is not to be emptied in the case of a malfunction in the filling line, the buffer section to the labeller can be reduced. The labeller can now also be directly block synchronised with the filler, this block is already available from a filler pitch of 87 millimetres.  

Process adjustments in real time

The intelligent control system in the Dynafill AI adjusts the boiler pressure fully automatically, quickly and precisely - even with fluctuating product parameters such as temperature or CO₂ content. This means that the optimum filling level is reliably achieved at all times - without any manual intervention.

Filling at ambient temperature

The Dynafill enables not only cold but also warm filling of beverages (temperatures up to 30 °C) – the process does not take longer than five seconds in both cases. The filling process remains always stable. The higher filling temperature means brewery energy concepts can be completely reinvented: depending on the line configuration, the bottle washer or even the tunnel pasteuriser can now also be included in the energy recovery system.

Increased filling quality

The closed hygienic filling and capping area ensures optimum product purity, as return gas feed back into the product bowl is no longer required. High-pressure injection is no longer required and no product is lost during filling.
