Mission Statement
At Beverage Technologies, Inc., our mission is
to provide the food and beverage packaging
industry with anti-contamination solutions that
help reduce product liability and maximize the
uptime of our customers’ plants.
Identifying the Problem

Current Crown Valve Actuator
 Detracts from profit margin
 Wastes valuable man hours
 Holds greater potential for product contamination
The Risk of Contamination

Typical Design of Crown Valve Actuator Allows
Contamination of Product
 Application of grease commonly spills over
discharge rail
Possibility of contamination exists
even though most plants cover this
area
Contamination Point

Assembly Design Allows for Contamination
 Grease can easily drip over infeed star
Actuator assembly passes directly
over infeed star, causing possible
contamination
Human Error

Current Assembly Designs Allow Excessive Grease to
Contaminate Product
 Greases easily passes by the O-ring
Liberal applications of grease can
bypass the O-ring and
contaminate product in the bowl
BTI Solution
