Default AutoCAD/Beer bottling help

Anyone have a plan view of a bottling line in a dwg format?

Or hell a gif, tiff, pdf?

Upfitting a warehouse to be a local brewery and need to lay out 2 bottling lines....owners sketches aren't cutting it

You can't draw a beer bottle?

CT let me do some checking. I might have some drawings of everything laid out of a open warehouse turned tea factory, including production, bottling, and packaging. That job was a while ago, but the drawings might still be around.

I can you give tons of drawings of bottling layouts, but without knowing what equipment is spec'd, and how much room you have to put it in, I'm not sure how it helps.

I'm kinda right there with you. This is a small local brewery that is looking to go nationwide. They're buying all used equipment from some big outfit in Charlotte that is about to fold

The bottling line they sketched and will be adding is approx 25' wide x 43' long


See they need a LOAN to get the building, and equipment....but they can't get a loan without drawings. And I can't get specs or information because they are buying USED equipment and the rep for the equipment isn't helping out because he's not GETTING anything for his services (used equip).

It's a real circle jerk.....I just need a pivot man to complete this wonderful loop

All I need is the approx location of where they'll need drains, water, and disconnects.

Below is a hand sketch they gave me...shows as a red "X" but if you click it the pic shows up

You're complaining about getting "that"?!

I should scan some of the sketches I've received from clients. Hell, you got..gasp..dimensions!!

Oh not complaining......just need something a little more clear to start from.

Right now I've cleaned it up a bit and converted the tiff into a DWX and inserted it into the drawing just to have something on the paper.

I'd LOVE to have soemthing that looks a bit more like what's planned.


These guys are GREAT to work with, and know their shit...but taking that knowledge and converting it to engineer-speak is not their best strong-suit


You know nothing of that
