For small to medium-scale manufacturing units, bottle washing efficiency directly influences downstream filling quality and overall line productivity. A Semi Automatic Rotary Bottle Washing Machine is an ideal solution where controlled output, flexibility, and cost efficiency are key decision factors.
Pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and specialty manufacturers operating across Great Britain—including industrial clusters in Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Nottingham, Leicester, and surrounding Midlands regions—often prefer semi-automatic washing systems for pilot lines, contract manufacturing, and lower-volume production. The rotary bottle washer from Technogen Enterprise is engineered to deliver consistent internal and external bottle cleaning with simple operation and dependable mechanical design.
A Semi Automatic Rotary Bottle Washing Machine is a compact bottle cleaning system designed for manual loading and unloading of bottles, combined with automated washing cycles. The machine operates on rotary intermittent motion using a Geneva mechanism, ensuring precise bottle indexing and repeatable washing sequences.
It is suitable for washing round and flat glass or plastic bottles and is commonly used where production volumes do not justify a fully automatic system.
The washing operation follows a structured and controlled sequence:
Manual Bottle Loading
Bottles are manually placed into pockets arranged in two rows on the rotary platform.
Geneva-Based Indexing
The Geneva drive mechanism indexes bottles accurately from one station to the next.
Internal & External Washing Cycles
Bottles undergo four internal washes, one external wash, and one air wash.
High-Pressure Spray Cleaning
Stationary nozzles spray water and air at high pressure to clean internal and external surfaces.
Manual Bottle Unloading
Clean bottles are manually removed and transferred to the next processing stage.
This controlled approach ensures effective washing while minimising bottle damage.
