Black Bear Bottling Group LLC: Air knives dry bottles for regional beverage packager

To gain optimal carbonation, Black Bear beverage temperatures are just above freezing.

Jan 31, 2003

Bottles are conveyed through a warmer that uses water to warm them

so that labels will adhere to the bottles. Here, bottles convey between a set of air knives from Sonic Air Systems that blow off water from the warmer. Bottles continue on the conveyor to the labeler.
