Whether Prosecco in a new bottle shape, wine
bottled in PET, or whatever tomorrows interna-
tional markets demand. Our systems are already
in operation filling effervescent wines like Pro-
secco in cans and racking fruity wines in kegs
for the restaurant trade. PET bottle processing
has already arrived on the scene in the spirits
industry where KHS machines are in successfuloperation.
Pioneer in the field of wine filtration
Because Seitz-Werke is considered the inventor
of wine filtration, KHS has traditionally close
ties with the wine sector as reflected not only
by the numerous complete systems installed to
date but also in the many international publi-
cations from our laboratory specialists focused
on technological process improvements. KHS
also participated in the cooperative laboratory
tests initiated by the German Oenologists Asso-
ciation (BDO) right from the beginning and for
many years has maintained close cooperation
with various viticulture educational facilitie s and
professional trade institutions by providing con-
sultants regularly.
Revolutionary development especially for
the spirits trade
The spirits trade boasts a variety of high-quality
products and a wide range of different bottle
shapes and sizes. Spirits must be bottled so thatthere is neither loss of product due to overfilling
nor a loss of alcohol or flavor. More than 40 years
ago, KHS was the first company in the world to
introduce a mechanical measurement bottling
system exactly matched to the requirements of
the spirits industry that today is considered the
forerunner of the inductive flowmetering-based
principle of volumetric filling. In the 1970s, KHS
brought another revolutionary development to
the spirits market by launching its universal fill-
ing valve that simplified considerably the han-
dling of various bottle mouth sizes.

Changing wine, champagne,
and spirits market
The spirits market continues to be an
attractive value added category thanks to
classical products such as clear schnapps,
liqueurs, and brandies in addition to mar-
keting concepts tailored to the market.
The market orients itself more and more
towards exporting. Internationally famous
brands like Jgermeister boast two-digit
yearly growth rates in the U.S. market.
Prerequisite for this is that producers
adapt to more and more individual con-
sumer needs and satisfy these needs by
offering the right products.
In a growing wine sec tor, German wines
have gained noticeably and are enjoying
an ever-increasing popularity internation-
ally. The trend is towards fresh, fruity, and
rather low-acidity white wines.
In order to meet these requirements,
winegrowers and wineries are converting
more and more to ultra-modern bottling
and packing technologies according to
the motto tradition meets future. The
champagne market in contrast is stagna-
ting and has suffered from extremely
tough price wars and predatory competi-
tion. For most champagne producers it is
therefore not a matter of concentrating
on seasonal business such as Christmas
and New Year, but rather stimulating an
increased desire for traditional sparkling
wines through new marketing ideas.

begins with product production and extends up
to compact systems including process integra-
tion and visualization. The advantage: Holistic
process competence without interface problems
from only one point of contact.
Rinsing
KHS cleaning technology offers the right solu-
tion for every problem and every task in the
wine, champagne, and spirits sector to ensure
maximum product safety. KHS rinsers are able
to wash both glass and PET bottles, can be indi-
vidually designed to include 1 to 3 channels, and
are controlled both mechanically as well as elec-
tronically. Steam, peracetic acid, chlorine di-
oxide, or ozone can be used to sterilize bottles.
The spirits industry uses primarily single-channel
rinsing systems that blow out new glass bottles
with air or use the product itself for rinsing.
Depending on the task definition, double-chan-
nel rinsing systems are also used occasionally
that offer facilities for both options.
Filling
With its innovative KHS InnofillNRF-OFE bal-
anced-pressure filling system for still wines and
spirits and its KHS InnofillDNRT for addition-
ally effervescent wines, KHS offers absolute
future-safe solutions. The high flexibility and the
fast changeover capabilities of these systems
also stand for maximum economy. Above all in
the spirits industry, the trend in the last few
years has been away from vacuum filling and
towards balanced-pressure filling systems that

SOLUTIONS FOR THEWINE, CHAMPAGNE, AND SPIRITS INDUSTRY
outstandingly retain the flavor and the alcohol
content of spirits. The electropneumatic KHS
InnofillNRF-OFE normal pressure filling system
stands for top filling quality. Using the bottom-
up method of filling with long filling tubes, spir-
its are bottled in the gentlest possible way.
There is no foaming and virtually no oxygen
pickup. With the KHS InnofillNRF-OFE, the fill
level for changing bottle types can be switched
at the push of a button. These developments
underline KHS leading technological position.
Capping, corking, crowning
KHS also relies on holistic solutions when it
comes to capping, corking, and crowning.
Regardless if metal screw caps, natural corks, or
synthetic corks. Natural cork corkers offer
exceptionally high corking quality and reliability
when processing natural corks, compressed
corks, and synthetic corks. The high product
quality in conjunction with natural corks is
ensured by various accessories such as vacuum
facilities, electrical cork heaters, and cork dust
exhaust systems. Whatever sty le of closure, KHS
offers the appropriate sealing solution for all
requirements.This also applies to aluminum roll-
on caps used mainly in the spirits trade or guala
caps occasionally employed primarily to cap
high-quality products such as cognac.
Labeling
Regardless of the container shape and the type
of material you would like to use and which
advertising accents are needed, KHS has the
right labeling solution for wine, champagne,
and spirits a sector in which considerable
effort is always involved in differentiating prod-
uct dressings and design. You are well equip-
ped at all times with KHS labeling machines
that are versatile, offer a wide spectrum of pos-
sible combinations, and a great variety of tech-
niques. Precision labeling and exact bottle
alignment for applying seal labels, for example,
is no problem.
Keg processing
KHS Innokegsystems also offer optimum solu-
tions for highly efficient washing, sterilizing, and
racking processes and the handling of standard
casks in the wine industry while taking cus-
tomer-specific needs into consideration. State-
of-the-art DCF keg racking technology reduces
the volume of counter-pressure gas as well as
the Opickup. The result is an optimally control-
led racking process with exceptionally constant
fill levels. Perfect hygienic design additionally
ensures extremely low-germ racking and reli-
able operation. The extensive KHS delivery pro-
gram includes individual machines and com-
plete systems that set the standard in the field
of keg processing. Backed by years of expe-
rience, we constantly develop innovations such
as the KHS ContiKeg, KegBoy, and Transomat

HIGHLY FLEXIBLE SYSTEM SOLUTIONS EVEN FOR HIGH-PROOF SPIRITS:KHS SETS THE STANDARD IN THE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE SECTOR
High performance for every taste
Whether wine, champagne, or spirits, each
product makes special demands on filling tech-
nology. KHS therefore offers the efficient and
gentle product handling solutions for the entire
beverage industry. So that the flavor and aroma
of all products is retained and you can produce
your products at full speed with little effort even
if you need to quickly change product and bot-
tle styles now and then.
Customer dialog is the recipe for success
The KHS performance features are the result of
years of intensive dialog with customers that
have lead us jointly to more and more new solu-
tions such as other filling methods, which can
be implemented to fill champagne at tempera-
tures of up to +19 C wi thout gushing and prod-
uct loss. Another example is a system for cold
sterile filling of wine at a highest standard of
microbial safety. With this filling system, you can
bottle still wine, sparkling wine, and other ef fer-
vescent beverages as well as champagne on one
and the same filler.
Long-tube filling technology that fills your prod-
ucts bottom-up in bottles in a gentlest possible
way - in both glass and plastic bottles. KHS also
enables you to fill top-quality spirits with a mini-
mum amount of oxygen pickup without loss of
flavor, alcohol, or product.
Perfect filling results from KHS
With more than 6000 systems installed world-
wide, KHS is one of the leading suppliers of fill-
ing systems in the beverage sector, and has set
new standards with numerous technological
innovations. Also in the wine, champagne, and
spirits sector where with the KHS InnofillDNRT
a pressure and normal pressure filling system
without filling tubes for champagne, sparkling
wine, and top-quality wines an alternative
technology to the long-tube filling system was
developed that is compelling based on its high
fill level accuracy using the Trinox method. Or
the KHS InnofillMF filling system designed for
still products that optionally operates with nor-
mal or negative pressure. The computer-con-
trolled KHS InnofillNRF-OFE normal pressure
filling system equipped with long filling tubes,
in contrast, ensures bottom-up, low-oxygen
pickup filling without dripping and with high fill
level accuracy. There has been a change in
recent years in bottling systems predestined for
the spirits sec tor. The current trend is away from
vacuum filling technique and toward the bal-
anced pressure method. The reason is that the
balanced pressure filling method retains the fla-
vor and alcohol content of spirits. For many
years, the electro-pneumatic KHS InnofillNRF-
OFE normal pressure filling system has provided
top-quality filling to the spirits branch of
industry. The KHS InnofillNRF-OFE offers push-
button changeover of fill levels for different
types of bottle. When it comes to hygienic
design, KHS scores an enormous number of
points with its specially developed, revolution-
ary front table with round, smooth surfaces. The
lack of niches dead spaces, corners, and edges
enables perfect sanitizing thereby achieving
maximum standards of hygiene.

The classical filling system for wine,
champagne, and spirits
The unique performance features and
details of all machines and systems from
KHS are impressive:
KHS InnofillDRF the classical
champagne filler
The counter-pressure principle of filling
and multiple-stage snifting avoids
gushing. As a result, the KHS Innofill
DRF is able to fill champagne at up to
19 C without condensation forming on
the bottles for subsequent trouble-free
labeling. The bottle height is changed at
the push of a button.
KHS InnofillNRF-OFE for still
wines and spirits
The electronic, long-tube filling system
can be individually adapted as required to
obtain a filling process without tur-
bulence, without loss of flavor and alco-
hol, and with minimum oxygen pickup.
KHS InnofillDNRT also for
effervescent wines and champagne
This filling system operates with balanced
and counter-pressure and in addition to
a variable number of pre-rinsing and
evacuation steps, it offers an automatic,
centrally adjustable return gas adjust-
ment facility for fill level correction. The
ideal system for filling of still and effer-
vescent beverages.

PREMIUM BEVERAGES NEED SPARKLING CLEAN BOTTLES:RINSING TECHNOLOGY FROM KHS
Perfect performance
The trend towards more non-alcoholic and non-
carbonated beverages sets higher standards on
biological safety and hygiene. The increasing
quality requirements also posed on select wines
and noble spirits necessitate first-class bottle
cleaning results. KHS bottle washing technology
offers you maximum product safety together
with fully developed functionality thought out
down to the last detail for processing all types
of beverage and container and unique know-
how for integrating rinsers into complete lines.
KHS offers built-in future-proofing right from
the start thanks to the constant further develop-
ment of our systems and processing methods to
meet future market requirements.
Because the wine, champagne, and spirits industry
uses primarily new glass containers, the demands
made on rinsing equipment for one-way bottles
are different. For less frequently used refillable
glass bottles on the other hand, multiple-bath
bottle washers are used whereas the current
trend is towards regional bottle rinsing centers.
Single or double-channel rinser?
Simplified rinsing equipment can be used when
filling new glass bottles in the spirits industry. It
is usually sufficient to invest in a single-channel
rinser that blows out the bottles with air or
rinses out the bottles with product. Depending
on the shape of the bottle and the style of prod-
uct to be filled, further rinsing with product can
be important in addition to rinsing with air in
which case, a double-channel rinser handles the
task of blowing out and rinsing the bot tles. Both
mechanical and electronic versions of all rinser
models are available. The latter offers the advan-
tage of variable treatment times and rinsing
programs that can be changed quickly and sim-
ply at the push of a button.
Rinsing equipment for wine
The cold sterile method of operation is
used in this case, i.e. sterilization with
steam, peracetic acid, chlorine dioxide,
or ozone by electronic or mechanical
double- or triple-channel systems. This
method incorporates the bottle mouth
area in the sterilization process.
Rinsing equipment for spirits
A rinser is used for spirits bottles that
blows the bottles out with air or sprays
them out with a product/water mixture
to prevent adverse affects to the quality
of the product.
Rinsing equipment for champagne
Single-channel and in some few instances,
double-channel rinsing systems are pri-
marily used in the champagne industry.
Simple fresh water spraying is generally
sufficient.

BRILLIANT SOLUTIONS IN PRACTICE:SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENTED BY KHS
Completely monitored: Palletizing center
at Henkell & Shnlein
After a planning and construction period of less
than 10 months, a palletizing and logistics cen-
ter successfully completed by KHS went into
operation at Henkell & Shnlein in Wiesbaden-
Biebrich.
Henkell & Shnlein is one of the worlds largest
sparkling wine cellars and produces nearly 90
million bottles of sparkling wine annually at its
facilities in Wiesbaden-Biebrich. In addition to
the old-established Henkell Trocken and Frst
von Metternich brands, Henkells range of prod-
ucts includes Carstens SC, Shnlein Brillant,
Rttgers Club, Wodka Gorbatschow, and Batida
de Coco all bottled, labeled, and packed on six
bottling lines. The entire range of products is
palletized, labeled, and distributed to the vari-
ous storage locations in the new palletizing cen-
ter. Considering the diverse brands of cham-
pagne and the variety of different packaging
sizes, a total of 28 different formations are
processed in the palletizing center.
Four high-performance KHS InnopalPL-series
palletizers are installed to handle this task. All
are equipped with fully automatic layer forma-
tion changeover for flexible production opera-
tion. The palletizing center is centrally monitored
by a camera system and a cell phone that trans-
mit disruption data directly to the system super-
visor. The intelligent plant information system
records all operational and disruption data
enabling fast reaction to any problems that may
occur. The heart of the logistics is an automatic
high-bay warehouse through which all pallet
transport logistics of the various products are
processed.
All guaranteed values for the entire system were
validated within only a few weeks. As a follow-
up order, KHS installed a new bottling line
equipped with an electronic KHS InnofillDRF
filler designed to process 30,000 0.2-liter
Piccolo bottles per hour.

Tradition and innovation perfectly combined in
one Winzer Krems, Austrias largest viticultural
cooperative, makes it clear that this can be
achieved in a stylish and convincing way. It
begins with the new cellar equipment operating
according to tried and tested methods, includes
a very impressive sensory experience concept
for visitors, and ends with the traditional use of
innovative keg equipment for filling wine for the
restaurant trade.
Winzer Krems produces nearly 10 million liters
of quality wines annually, which are distributed
in different sizes and shapes of bottle to both
end consumers and to the restaurant trade that
is additionally delivered wine in kegs. This still
rather unusual type of packaging offers clear
advantages. The stainless steel kegs are herme-
tically sealed, absolutely lightproof, taste-neu-
tral, resistant to corrosion and impact, and can
be stored for virtually an unlimited period
without any affect on the quality of the wine.
Added to this is the decreased handling in con-
junction with a professionally installed dispen -
sing system that always keeps the wine on tap
at a constant and ideal dispensing tempera-
ture.
Perfect keg washing and gentle racking are the
basis for ensuring top quality wine in kegs. KHS
provided the optimum conditions for this pur-
pose by supplying keg equipment with a capac-
ity of up to 60 kegs per hour. Winzer Krems runs
the KHS line in a single-shift. Before the kegs
returned from the restaurant trade are fed into
the single-lane KHS Innokeg Transomat 3/1
washing and racking machine, they pass through
an KHS InnokegAK 1 keg exterior washer. Spe-
cific rinsing of the filling head with hot water is
the next item on the agenda before the c leaned
keg is hooked up to the filling head. This method
guarantees maximum microbial safety and the
perfect washing process creates the prereq-
uisites for an ideal racking process. Maximum
flexibility for all eventualities.
In addition to the white and red wines filled by
Winzer Krems up to now, sparkling wine can
WINZER KREMS RELIES ON QUALITY WINES RACKED IN KEGS AND THUS ON SUCCESS
also be racked if required using the KHS Innokeg
Transomat 3/1, which is able to rack other keg
sizes ranging from the 7-liter to the 58-liter keg
version.
We rely very specifically on KHS keg equip-
ment. The gentle filling process can be practiced
outstandingly with our technical solution. The
oxygen and gas pickup in the product is mini-
mized and the natural effervescence is retained
during the racking process. Franz Arndorfer,
Winzer Krems Chief Cellar Master thus verifies
the choice of systems.
After all, Winzer Krems orients itself consis-
tently to the market and is getting ready in the
future for smaller format wine kegs for end
customers as well as sparkling wine in kegs for
the restaurant trade. With KHS, this Austrian
winery has a decidedly innovative and receptive
technology and system equipment partner at its
side.

Wines with a slightly stylized W trademark and
a seal of quality equally embracing a promise of
the Badischer Winzerkeller: Top quality directly

responding farsightedness, Germanys largest
wine producer was able to increase its yearly
production volume to 30 million liters distributed
in an assortment of more than 600 different
wines, some of which bottled in innovative
styles of packaging. One example is Rebstckle,
a wine spritzer created by Badischer Winzerkel-
ler that is distributed in 0.5-liter one-way PET
bottles. The main requirements made of the
new system included supplying a vacuum-less
filling system and capabilities for processing an
extensive range of bottle types coupled with
assurance of maximum filling quality in conjunc-
tion with facilities for flexible reaction to pos-
sible new developments. The resulting heart of
the line, a new 80-station KHS InnofillNRF-
OFE balanced-pressure filling system capable of
filling 20,000 bottles per hour is the largest KHS
balanced-pressure filling system in operation in
the German wine trade. Using the bottom-up
method of filling with long filling tubes, the KHS
InnofillNRF-OFE fills wine in bottles in a gen-
tlest possible way thus enabling filling in practi-
cal operation for the first time without any loss
of quality and flavor but with a minimum of oxy-
gen pickup. Numerous concealed and open
tastings corroborated the quality lead provided
by the new filling system. With the new rinser-
filler-capper block, the Badischer Winzerkeller is
already well prepared today for production
innovations of tomorrow. Other individually
designed bottle shapes or bottling in PET later i s
no problem for the KHS solution that can handle
every thing. With KHS, Badischer Winzerkeller
has the right partner at its side for the future to
also retain the outstanding product quality even
of select wines. Even now, the joint quality phi-

A MASTERPIECE FOR JGERMEISTER:KHS FILLING AND PACKING TECHNOLOGY
Jgermeister, the worlds most famous German
spirit, began its international rise to fame as
early as the 1960s and has always placed par-
ticular emphasis on quality and its brand iden-
tity, which is identical in all regions worldwide.
With KHS, Jgermeister has found a competent
partner in filling and packaging technology. In
line with the mottostrength to strength suc-
cess to success, Jgermeisters most recent
German bottling location went into operation
in Linden. Jgermeister consistently meets the
increasing demand for it products by installing
one of the worlds highest-performance spirits
lines for format bottles. Today, a KHS line with
a capacity of 20,000 bottles per hour is in ope-
ration at the Linden plant where six different
styles of Jgermeister bottle are currently being
processed ranging in size from 0.35 to 1 liter.
Because of its high flexibility, the system is also
equipped to handle other types and sizes of
bottle in the future. Painted in rich Jgermeister
orange and herbal liqueur green, the entire line
presents visible highlight suitable for the brand.
From a technical standpoint, the Jgermeister
line is compelling over the entire spectrum:
ranging from the gentle depalletizing process
to the modular dry area concept, perfect row
removal, the variable rinse program provided
by an electronically controlled double-channel
rinser, up to the completely servo-driven rinser-
filler-capper-labeler block. With this line, KHS
offers a filling process predestined for high-
quality spirits. The fill level principle of filling
by means of a computer-controlled, 80-station
KHS InnofillNRF-OFE filling system equipped
with long filling tubes ensures exact fill levels
and gentle-to-product filling without any loss
of flavor and alcohol. The subsequent labeling
process guarantees the optimum brand appea-
rance of this high-quality spirit at the point of
sale and ensures that Jgermeister is well pre-
pared for continued perfectly designed success.
Prerequisite for this is plant equipment that
meets maximum demands and complies fully
with Mast-Jgermeisters quality philosophy.
With Jgermeister we are providing a premium spirit based on a concept,
which only allows high-quality technical solutions to be used for bottling and packing.
We made our decision in favor of KHS based on the impressive technical solutions offered.

ITS THE MIX THAT DOES IT:FRUIT BRANDY PRODUCER BIMMERLE RELIES ON KNOW-HOW, HIGH-TECH, AND TRADITION
Select products need not necessarily be expen-
sive this is the company philosophy of the
northern Black Forest-based noble fruit brandy
distiller Bimmerle KG, producer of Germanys
and Europes No. 1 brand of fruit brandy. With
sales totaling 21 million bottles, the success of
Bimmerle noble brandies therefore runs against
the general trend. Fifty percent of production is
distributed as brand name products to food
retailers and the other fifty percent as generic
brands to the discount sector. Bimmerles wide
range of Lrch brand products is oriented
entirely to customer demands as reflected in
the broad variety of different bottle sizes and
shapes. Whether 0.04-liter or 1-liter size
everything is possible. What counts is above
all the quality of the noble brandies and the
appearance of the bottles and packaging.
Quality was therefore clearly the most impor-
tant aspect when it came to deciding on a new
packaging line. A reliable technical solution,
which was solid and rugged, and at the same
time was equipped with the cutting-edge com-
ponents, was implemented jointly with KHS.
Further advantages include outstanding quality
of workmanship, great ease of operation, good
accessibility, and fast service. Today, a dry sec-
tion solution is in operation at Bimmerle that
incorporates the latest in technical components,
and is distinguished by an individual design. The
12,000 bottle-per-hour capacity line processes
nineteen different types of bottle. Whether
round, rectangular, or octagonal the versatile
machinery is equipped for all conceivable bottle
styles. KHS performance with regard to service
was also convincing for Bimmerle. After the line
was commissioned, an efficient service team
either arrived quickly on site or provided rapid
assistance by means of Remote Diagnostic Ser-
vice mobile (KHS ReDiSmobile). All in all, the
cooperation between Bimmerle and KHS is a
win-win situation right down the line that has
opened the way for further growth in the inter-

SOLUTIONS FOR THEWINE, CHAMPAGNE, AND SPIRITS INDUSTRY
FROM THE MACHINE TO THE SOLUTION:FROM SERVICE TO PARTNERSHIP
Economy and productivity over the entire
life cycle
KHS has many years of experience with design,
construction, and manufacture of filling and
packing systems and knows what counts. In
addition to modern machine equipment, suffi-
cient buffer zones are planned, for instance, to
ensure trouble-free production coupled with
maximum efficiency in the long term. Our job
does not end with commissioning, however.
Our competence centers and service offices
around the globe are the first point of contact
for our customers. A consistently well-planned
and simulated detailed solution approach is pur-
sued in the pre-sale area in particular to elimi-
nate any interface problems right from the start
and ensure perfect integration into existing
intralogistics.
Innovations are then implemented by KHS in
the subsequent development and construction
phase. The result is highly efficient machines and
systems offering a future-proof investment and
high flexibility based on end-to-end service.
In good hands worldwide:
The KHS after-sale program
KHS is your competent service provider and
partner wherever in the world you are, with
competent support from system planning to
commissioning and including support on micro-
biological issues.
Maximum performance can be learned:
KHS training
All KHS systems have been designed and are
able to achieve high availability and excellent
efficiency, provided operating and maintenance
personnel know how to handle the machines
properly. The KHS Training Center offers inten-
sive, practice-oriented training courses for your
employees either at our factory-based training
facilities or directly at your site.
Boundless service
The great demand for KHS plant equipment is
not based on our outstanding machine concept
alone but our excellent service performance as
well. This service begins with optimum system
design and includes immediate assistance to
clarify any questions that arise. More than
60 KHS service locations outstandingly ensure
local presence worldwide and on special
request, KHS also offers direct assistance online.
A service tool Remote Diagnostic Service
mobile (KHS ReDiSmobile) is provided for this
purpose that is able to immediately analyze
machine components around the globe from
KHS headquarters. This shortens downtime,
increases machine availability, and thus impro-
ves the productivity of your line.
