Review the current bottleneck
The first step is to identify whether the infeed, transfer, downstream machine or operator loading method is limiting production.
Line advice
Packaging line infeed consultation
A bottle infeed review helps identify whether the line needs a bottle unscrambler, rotary feeder, conveyor change or integration improvement.
Specification advice
What this means for the bottle infeed section.
Match the equipment route
A consultation can compare rotary feeding, automatic unscrambling and wider conveyor/infeed adjustments before a quote is requested.
Plan the next practical step
The output should be a shortlist of options and the information still needed to confirm the machine route.
Practical checks
Use the bottle and line data to reduce quote guesswork.
The best enquiry includes real bottle information, the target line speed and details of the downstream equipment. This gives the supplier enough information to recommend a sensible machine route instead of guessing from a catalogue picture.
For urgent projects, send bottle photos, sample dimensions, output target, conveyor height and a short description of the current line problem.

Questions
Common questions before choosing a bottle infeed route.
When is a consultation useful?
It is useful when the line stops because of infeed problems, manual loading or poor transfer into downstream machinery.
What information should be ready?
Bottle dimensions, line speed, photos, conveyor height and current stoppage details are useful.
Can advice be given before samples are sent?
Initial advice can be given from photos and dimensions, but samples are recommended before confirming the route.
