Product Details
Coconut oil is a special edible oil that has extremely high requirements for temperature and hygiene levels. It is prone to crystallization at low temperatures and easily adheres to walls due to its high viscosity. Ordinary general-purpose filling machines commonly face long-standing pain points such as valve clogging, metering drift, and oil oxidation and deterioration. This fully automated filling production line customized exclusively for coconut oil adopts heat tracing and insulation design across the entire process from material storage to filling, minimizing the contact between the oil and air throughout the process. It not only solves the long-standing industry problem of material jamming caused by low-temperature crystallization, but also maximally preserves the natural active ingredients of cold-pressed coconut oil and prevents the oil from oxidative rancidity.
The constant-temperature material storage tank of the equipment is equipped with a built-in low-speed anti-sedimentation stirring system, which enables infinitely variable precise temperature control within the range of 20°C to 70°C. Even in low-temperature workshops below 10°C, it can slowly melt the solidified coconut oil and maintain uniform fluidity, eliminating the risk of local overheating that would damage the oil quality. The filling station adopts a fully sealed butt joint design for the bottle mouth: the filling head is completely embedded into the bottle mouth to discharge the oil, paired with a three-section flow rate control of "fast filling first followed by slow topping up", which prevents splashing and bottle overflow even for high-viscosity oil products. The triple anti-dripping structure synchronously completes valve port closing, vacuum back-suction, and residual material recovery at the end of filling, completely eliminating the problem of oil stringing and dripping onto the bottle body or the conveyor line. No extra manual repeated wiping and cleaning is required, avoiding microbial growth caused by residual oil on the bottle body, which fully meets the outer packaging hygiene standards for high-end edible oil.
All components of the entire line that come into contact with oil are processed with dead-angle-free mirror polishing. The quick-disassembly design allows for rapid manual disassembly and cleaning without tools, and a CIP (Clean-in-Place) module is available as an optional add-on, which enables full pipeline disinfection without dismantling the equipment, fully satisfying the food-grade hygiene requirements of high-end grain and oil factories. The equipped intelligent PLC system can store hundreds of sets of production formulas for different bottle types and different oil products. When switching products, parameter calling can be completed within 10 minutes, greatly improving the production changeover efficiency. The entire production line can flexibly adjust the station sequence according to the workshop layout of overseas clients, enabling rapid implementation and production without large-scale transformation of the existing factory building, creating a fully closed-loop automated production chain for clients from empty bottles to finished product warehousing.
What Specifications Can We Customize for Overseas Buyers?
In response to the production needs of different grain and oil producing regions around the world, we provide full-scenario flexible customization services, with core customization directions covering four major categories:
Exclusive Material Adaptation Customization: For cold-pressed crude oil with tiny coconut meat particles and high-melting-point fractionated coconut oil, we customize large-caliber anti-clogging filling valves, and install constant-temperature heat tracing layers on the entire pipeline to maintain uniform fluidity of the oil throughout the process, eliminating valve jamming caused by crystallization and sedimentation.
Production Capacity & Container Customization: Based on the dimensions of mainstream bottle and bucket types in the client's local area, we customize exclusive positioning fixtures and filling strokes. The number of filling heads can be expanded from 2 heads to 14 heads as required, with the production capacity ranging from 800 bottles per hour to 3500 buckets per hour, accurately matching the needs from small family oil mills to large-scale mass production grain and oil groups.
Regional Compliance Customization: For clients in main coconut oil producing regions such as Southeast Asia and the Middle East, we can provide HALAL-certified materials and compliance documents; for clients in European and American markets, we upgrade FDA food-grade contact components, and equip with aseptic filling, full-machine explosion-proof modules as required, fully meeting the local regulatory requirements for grain and oil production.
Localized Implementation Customization: The equipment is adapted to the industrial voltage standards of different countries, with built-in multi-language operation interfaces including English, Thai, Arabic and more. It supports direct connection with the client's existing third-party capping and palletizing equipment, enabling fast access without transforming the original production line. A remote operation and maintenance module is also available as a supporting option, with the overseas technical team providing 24/7 online rapid troubleshooting for equipment failures.
FAQ
If completely solidified coconut oil is poured into the equipment, can it be directly melted for normal filling?
The constant-temperature material storage tank of the equipment comes with a built-in low-speed stirring and heat tracing system, which can uniformly and slowly heat up to melt the solidified coconut oil. There will be no local overheating problem that damages the activity of the oil. After melting, the oil can directly enter the filling process without additional pretreatment.
Will there be absolutely no oil hanging or dripping on the filled coconut oil bottles?
Our triple anti-dripping structure, paired with the bottle mouth embedded filling design, ensures that the oil does not come into contact with the outer side of the bottle mouth during the entire filling process. After filling, all residual oil is recycled back to the material storage tank. Under normal operating conditions, there will be no oil residue on the bottle body, and no extra manual wiping is required.
How is the after-sales service guaranteed for clients in remote overseas areas?
We provide full sets of multi-language operation manuals, high-definition installation and commissioning videos, and 24/7 online remote video guidance; we can also arrange engineers to go to the site to complete the full-process commissioning and operator training. Core components are provided with an extra-long 18-month warranty, and overseas spare parts warehouses in Southeast Asia and the Middle East can deliver vulnerable parts within 3-7 days.
Do we need to replace a large number of accessories when switching between bottle types of different capacities?
All the equipment adopts a quick-disassembly fixture design. When switching between containers of different specifications from 150ml to 25L, there is no need to replace the core components of the valve body. The model changeover and commissioning can be completed in 15-25 minutes, and production can be started directly by calling the preset production parameters in the touch screen.
To what extent can the material loss of the oil be controlled after long-term production?
The net content error of 1000 consecutive running samples of the equipment can be stably controlled within ±0.3%, and the monthly material loss during long-term mass production can be controlled within 0.4%, which is far lower than the industry average loss level of 2%. For the grain and oil industry with thin profit margins, this can greatly reduce production costs.
Will the active nutrients of cold-pressed coconut oil be damaged during the filling process?
The entire line adopts a low-temperature heat tracing design throughout the process, with the maximum temperature control not exceeding 70°C. The filling link is fully sealed to isolate air, so that the oil will not be exposed to high temperature and oxygen for a long time, maximally preserving the natural activity and aroma of cold-pressed coconut oil.
