A useful carbonated drink filling enquiry defines what arrives at the filler and what must leave as an accepted, sealed package. State the beverage, agreed inlet conditions, container and closure, then identify who supplies and verifies each stage. Comparing filler prices without this boundary can leave mixing, cooling, carbonation or transfer equipment outside the proposal.
Jiangsu ASG Packaging Machinery Group lists DXGF and DGF equipment for carbonated drinks and separately lists a WYH carbonated beverage mixer. These catalogue entries identify equipment to assess; they do not establish that a mixer, filler and container combination is compatible with your recipe or factory. Request a project-specific process and scope review.

Define the beverage at the filler inlet
Provide the beverage specification and representative product information, including ingredients, intended carbonation and any relevant viscosity or particle characteristics. Ask the supplier to define the required temperature, pressure and product conditions at the filler inlet. Record the agreed units and operating range in the proposal; do not choose those values from a generic equipment name.
If several recipes will run, list them separately. Ask which are included in the assessment and which need trials or another configuration. Approval of a carbonated-water example should not be treated as approval of every sweetened or formulated beverage.
Match the container and closure to the proposed configuration
Send container and closure drawings, material specifications, dimensions, fill requirements and representative samples. Identify whether the project uses PET bottles, glass bottles or cans, rather than assuming one filling proposal covers them all. Ask for the included container-handling and closing equipment, format parts and changeover procedure. Confirm the combinations to be demonstrated during acceptance.
Draw the mixer-to-filler supply boundary
Ask for a process diagram identifying mixing, carbonation, cooling, product transfer, filling and closing, with each included and excluded item marked. Where existing equipment remains, provide its drawings and operating information. Agree the connection points, control signals, product-supply responsibility and utility requirements. A separately listed mixer is not evidence that all connecting equipment or services are included.
Agree where product quality will be measured
Define the sampling points and methods for the incoming beverage and the finished sealed package. Ask how the agreed carbonation, fill quantity, closure integrity and appearance will be checked, and how foaming or rejected containers will be recorded. State the sample conditions and acceptance criteria in writing. Do not compare a mixer-discharge result with a finished-package result as though they were the same acceptance point.
Separate sample approval from a production run. Record the recipe, container, closure and operating conditions used, plus the duration and measurement boundary of the proposed acceptance test. Ask who supplies the product, packaging, instruments and records.
Include stops, restarts and product changes
Ask what happens to product supply and affected containers when filling or downstream packaging stops. Request the proposed restart, product-change and cleaning procedures for the actual configuration. Clarify which tasks and checks occur before accepted production resumes. These are items for supplier confirmation, not features to assume from the phrase carbonated filling line.
Compare accepted output on the same basis
Request output and utility information for each agreed beverage–container combination. State whether the quoted result refers to filler operation or the complete line, and how startup, stops, rejects and changeovers are counted. Identify the equipment and services included in the test. A headline catalogue rate alone is not a complete-line acceptance commitment.
Attach these details to your enquiry
- Beverage: recipe information, product samples, carbonation target and proposed filler-inlet conditions, with units and assessment scope.
- Packaging: container and closure drawings, materials, format list, fill requirements and representative samples.
- Interfaces: process diagram, existing equipment, connection points, factory layout and available utilities.
- Acceptance: sampling locations, test methods, agreed operating conditions, quality criteria and responsibilities for documentation.
- Production: required accepted output, operating schedule, recipe and format changes, cleaning scope and restart requirements.
Send ASG this information to request a proposal with an itemized process boundary and application-specific acceptance plan. Keep unresolved recipe, container or interface questions explicitly open until the proposed configuration has been assessed.
