This Breitner Flaschenaufsteller is a beverage machine — specifically, a fully automatic bottle unscrambler, sometimes referred to as a bottle sorter, designed to orient bulk-loaded plastic containers and feed them correctly onto a production line. Breitner Abfüllanlagen GmbH is a German manufacturer with a strong reputation in filling and packaging technology, producing equipment for the beverage, food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries.
This particular machine is model BFA 8003, manufactured in 2022. It was built as a trade fair demonstration unit and has never been used in production, placing it in as-new condition. It retains a 12-month manufacturer warranty.
The BFA 8003 is designed for continuous operation, fed directly from a bulk hopper. It achieves output of up to 150 bottles per minute and accommodates a wide range of plastic containers — PET, HDPE, and similar materials — with bottle diameters up to 80 mm, lengths up to 100 mm, and heights up to 300 mm, with larger dimensions available on request. Bottles are oriented bottom-first using a pneumatic flipping device, and the machine runs left to right at a working height of 900 mm.
The frame is welded stainless steel to AISI 304 standard, and the sorting drum measures 1,500 mm in diameter. Machine guarding is provided by polycarbonate panels, and the safety system includes error detection with clear-text display. Electrical supply is three-phase 400 V, N, PE, with a total power demand of 4 kW, and compressed air consumption is 400 Nl/min at 6 bar.
Control is handled by a B&R industrial computer with a 12.5-inch touchscreen interface, integrated diagnostics, and remote access capability. The machine is currently located in Germany.
