Abstract

In beer production industry, some substandard glass-bottled beer should be recycled considering the economic benefit. The traditional way of recycling the glass-bottled beer totally depends on manpower, which limits the development of the production line. This paper proposes a new method for recycling substandard glass-bottled beer, and a relevant equipment is designed. Based on FBS model, a framework for the glass-bottled beer recycling equipment is proposed. With the implement of CATIA, the mechanical structures are modeled and a virtual assembly is conducted. To verify the feasibility of the product, a motion simulation is conducted. The equipment can coordinate recycling of beer, recycling of bottle and recycling of the cap. It frees the labor force in recycling the substandard glass-bottled beer, removing the obstacle to the development of beer-brewing industry. There exist some further work to verify the practicability of the equipment. A prototype should be made and in service in the production line to test and perfect the design.
