This Leibinger SMB 18 06 is a beverage machine — specifically a beer filling and capping unit — used in bottling operations to fill and seal bottles at production line speed. Leibinger, also known in this context under the SMB/Leibinger brand, is a recognised name in beverage filling technology, producing equipment for the brewing and drinks industry.
The machine is configured with 18 filling valves and a 6-head crown corker, making it a combined filler-crowner suited to bottling beer or other carbonated beverages in a single integrated pass. The filling valves are of the long type, a design commonly used to reduce foaming during the filling process by allowing the liquid to flow down the inside of the bottle rather than dropping from height. A safety housing is fitted around the machine, providing protection for operators in the event of bottle breakage — a standard safety requirement in high-speed glass bottle filling environments.
The unit includes CIP tulips, meaning it is equipped for clean-in-place sanitation, allowing the filling heads to be cleaned without full disassembly, which simplifies hygiene maintenance and reduces downtime between production runs. The machine runs from right to left, which is an important consideration when integrating it into an existing conveyor or bottling line layout.
This used machine dates from 1989, is located in Germany, and is described as available immediately.
