Oil filling line: price, composition and capacity
The budget for an oil filling line depends on product viscosity, packaging and dose accuracy. We show typical configurations and cost items so you understand the price structure before the commercial proposal.

What makes up an oil line budget
| Budget item | What is included | What affects cost |
|---|---|---|
| Filler type | Gravimetric, piston or volumetric doser, stainless contact path | Oil viscosity, dose accuracy and retail underfill requirements |
| Packaging and formats | Bottle feeding, canisters, changeover kits | Number of formats from 0.5 L to 20 L canister and drum |
| Capping | Torque-controlled capper, cap orienter | Cap type and sealing requirements |
| Decoration | Labeling, date and batch, carton or shrink | One or two labels, marking requirements |
| Launch | Delivery, installation, commissioning, training, spare parts | Site readiness and remoteness |
Oil is sensitive to dose accuracy: a fraction of a percent of overfill turns into noticeable losses over the year. So we price from the required accuracy and viscosity, not from the number of filling valves.
How we calculate a line for edible oil
- Step 1Determine viscosity and temperature
Sunflower, olive, technical or frying oil behave differently. Viscosity at operating temperature determines the filler type and line diameter.
- Step 2Calculate the dose tolerance
Choose between gravimetric and volumetric filling. A mass flow meter costs more but pays off on volume by minimizing overfill.
- Step 3Build the format range
From 0.5 L to 5 L canister, sometimes up to 20 L. We see whether formats fit in one line or need a separate large-container filling station.
- Step 4Plan changeovers
We calculate transition time between formats and recipes, change parts set, and cleaning requirements. This directly affects real shift output.
- Step 5Form estimate and payback
Equipment, transport systems, marking, case packing, palletizing, launch and training. We show product loss calculation before and after automation.
Common questions about oil filling
Gravimetric gives a stable dose regardless of temperature and viscosity and protects against underfill. Volumetric is cheaper and suitable when product temperature is stable.
Possible with close volumes and the same dosing principle, but changeover takes time. For a big volume difference two separate sections are usually more economical.
For motor and industrial oils the seal materials change, filtration is added and explosion-proof execution of units is often required. This affects the budget.
