Frequently asked questions

How much does a beer bottling and canning line cost in Kazakhstan?

For a reference capacity of 13,000 bph, indicative CAPEX delivered in Kazakhstan ranges from €3.75M to €5.05M. The estimate includes the country factor for logistics, certification and erection supervision.

Who handles shipping, customs and erection in Kazakhstan?

Intermodal transport via Poti or the trans-Caspian railway. MCF Technology manages shipment, customs paperwork and erection with its own mechanical and electronic technicians, through to full-load commissioning and training of local operators.

Which certifications and electrical requirements apply in Kazakhstan?

Mandatory EAC/TR CU certification, technical documentation in Russian, continental-climate design. Technical documentation, wiring diagrams and manuals are issued in the language required by the local authority, and machines are prepared for the grid available on site.

How long until the line is producing in Kazakhstan?

About 15 months from signature, including 2 extra months compared with an installation in Italy for shipping, customs and site supervision by our commissioning team.

How to install and operate the beer bottling line — pet, glass & can filling: step-by-step procedure

The operating sequence MCF Technology follows to install, commission and start up the beer bottling line — pet, glass & can filling, through to daily operation and planned maintenance. Delivery, erection and on-site service are included worldwide.

  1. 1. Site survey and utilities check· ~2 working days (indicative)

    Technical survey on the layout of the beer bottling line — pet, glass & can filling: passage heights, flooring and drains, maintenance clearances and availability of steam or hot water for the brewhouse, cooling water and glycol for the fermentation cellar. The final list of customer-side preparations is handed over.

  2. 2. Shipment, receiving and positioning of the modules· ~3 working days (indicative)

    Worldwide delivery with sea-freight or road packing, unloading and positioning of the modules (Serbatoi di pressione e carbonatore in linea, Riempitrice isobarica con tappatore corona / capsulatore, Pastorizzatore a tunnel o flash pasteurizer) on the areas foreseen by the layout, checking the packing list and the condition of the components.

  3. 3. Mechanical assembly and piping· ~15 working days (indicative)

    Assembly of the units, conveyor alignment, hygienic welding of the stainless-steel piping and installation of valves and instruments according to the P&ID, supervised on site by MCF Technology technicians.

  4. 4. Utility hook-ups and electrical connections· ~4 working days (indicative)

    Connection of steam or hot water for the brewhouse, cooling water and glycol for the fermentation cellar, wiring of the electrical cabinet and PLC, earthing, HMI configuration and process recipes for the planned formats (PET, Vetro, Lattina).

  5. 5. Sanitation, CIP and dry runs· ~3 working days (indicative)

    Washing and passivation of the product-contact surfaces, CIP circuit verification with flow, temperature and detergent-concentration control, tightness tests and dry-run cycles on all modules.

  6. 6. Functional commissioning and process trials· ~4 working days (indicative)

    hot run of the brewhouse, temperature-ramp calibration, fermenter tightness test and isobaric filling test. Trials are run with the customer's real product and recorded in the commissioning report.

  7. 7. Production start-up and staff training· ~5 working days (indicative)

    Assisted start-up with continuous production, training of operators and maintenance staff on HMI, format changeover, safety and sanitation, handover of manuals and drawings in the agreed language.

  8. 8. Daily operation and planned maintenance

    Daily operation with fermentation gravity and temperature, CO2 at filling and dissolved oxygen in the bottle. Planned maintenance: heat-exchanger inspection, fermenter gaskets and calibration of temperature and pressure probes. On-site and remote service with critical spare parts agreed in the quotation.

Durations and activities are indicative: the erection, commissioning and training plan is defined in the quotation after the site survey and line sizing. No figure is a contractual performance.
