Free ergonomics audit and grip-force test on request.

Key Advantages

GC SERIES

Adjustable Ø20–110mm Grip Range

Pneumatic grippers with quick-change pads support everything from 20ml vials to 1L bottles on a single machine without tooling changes.

Single-Operator Ergonomic Workflow

Reduces manual handling fatigue and repetitive-strain injuries versus hand-loading, while supporting 15–30 BPM throughput.

Gentle Grip Force Control

Adjustable pneumatic pressure (0.2–0.5 MPa) prevents glass bottle cracking and plastic deformation across formats.

360° Bottle Orientation

Optional rotating grip head aligns bottles for front-label orientation, cap application, or vision-system inspection.

SUS304 Contact Surfaces

Stainless steel gripper arms and contact pads meet hygiene requirements for cosmetics, food, beverage, and pharmaceutical lines.

Up to 70% Breakage Reduction

Eliminates the inconsistency of manual hand-off, reducing drop-and-crash incidents in glass-bottle filling lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the technical specifications of GC 100?
+

GC 100 is a bottle gripping machine for inline transfer. Bottle height range 40-200mm, belt speed 6-15 m/min, effective conveying length 700mm. Power 0.24kW, 220V. Dimensions 850×400×1000mm, weight 70kg. Adjustable gripper spacing/speed/height. Compatible with inkjet coder for bottle-bottom printing.

What is the standard lead time?
+

Standard lead time for new equipment is approximately 60 working days after deposit and design finalization (reference: ATLAS 310 three-line machine). Custom configurations, special tooling, or non-standard voltages may extend the lead time. A detailed production schedule with weekly photo and video updates is provided for every order.

Can this machine be customized to my product, bottle, and cap?
+

Yes. All INNOPKG machines support custom configuration. Typical customization areas include: filling volume range (e.g., ATLAS 220 ships with 200ml cylinder; 500ml cylinder is an optional kit that expands the range to 100-500ml), bottle diameter / height / neck size (each machine has a defined compatible range — see Specifications), cap chuck diameter (PALLAS chucks cover Ø15-90mm depending on model), and voltage (220V/380V standard, 110V/415V/480V available on request). Our engineering team reviews your samples and product specs and confirms feasibility before quotation.

What voltage and air supply does the machine need?
+

Standard supply is 220V 50/60Hz or 380V 50Hz 3-phase (varies by model — see Specifications tab). Air supply requirement is 0.4-0.6 MPa clean compressed air for most models; HYDRA 212 and PALLAS 210 require 0.5-0.7 MPa. We specify exact requirements per model in the quotation.

What packaging and shipping terms apply?
+

Default incoterm is EXW (factory). CIF (named destination port) and DDP (delivered duty paid) are available on request. Equipment is wrapped in protective film, crated in fumigation-free plywood with shock indicators, and includes the operation manual, electrical schematics, and FAT report. Sea freight transit to most major ports is approximately 25-35 days; air freight 5-7 days.

Do you provide installation, training, and commissioning?
+

Yes. Every machine ships with detailed English operation manual and electrical schematics. Remote commissioning support is available via video call. For on-site installation and commissioning, engineer dispatch is quoted per project (typical scope: 1-2 engineers, 5-10 working days on site, including round-trip economy airfare, local transport, accommodation, and per-diem). Scope and cost are defined in the quotation.

What about after-sales support and spare parts?
+

Warranty is 12 months from start-up or 18 months from dispatch (whichever comes first), per the default quotation terms. Warranty scope covers manufacturing defects under normal operating conditions. Wear parts (seals, gaskets, O-rings, nozzles) are recommended to be stocked by the customer. Spare parts can be ordered at any time; lead time and pricing depend on part availability — please contact our service team with your machine serial number for an accurate quote.
