Leifeld + Lemke KEG Abfüllanlage

Overview

This is a complete automatic KEG line for stainless-steel kegs, built in 1990 by Leifeld & Lemke and continuously extended and modernised over its service life. It covers the full cycle from empty-keg infeed and centring through external washing, internal cleaning, filling and full-keg checking to automatic palletising.

According to the seller it runs at up to 130 kegs/h in the 30 L format in three-shift duty. Control is by Siemens SIMATIC PLCs of mixed generation (see Condition).

Condition

Used - still installed and under power, in active three-shift production and reported by the seller to be well maintained. The 1990 line has been progressively modernised: kegs were originally hand-loaded, the robot was later replaced (approx. 2015, seller-stated) and Siemens SIMATIC touch HMIs added. Control mixes Siemens SIMATIC S5 (reportedly filler, CIP and pre-/main cleaning) and S7-300 (the remaining stations, conveyors and washer); as the S5 generation is long discontinued, spare-part supply and future control integration should be planned accordingly.

Availability

In production until approximately April 2027; the existing and the successor line will then run in parallel, so realistic handover is from around Q2 2027. Location: Germany. Viewings in operation are possible at any time. Dismantling and removal can be arranged on request. Price on request.
