New Soft Drink Bottler
If one were to tell the average ■citizen not in the bottling trade about a machine that would fill and cap 60 dozen bottles of soft drink an hour that would probably be considered fast. However, at Innes’s Whakatane factory, they have just pushed aside one of those machines, and replaced it with the latest streamlined speed model, capable of doing 150 dozen an hour and at present cantering through 120 dozen, which keeps the other machinery of the factory at a hard gallop with the whips out. What is more, this machine needs practically no feeding. The operator just lines the bottles up on a conveyer belt, and the machine pops in the syrup, the gas, the water, clamps on the crown lop and hands them over with a self-satisfied grin.
