Amazing Coca Cola manufacturing line – Inside the soft drink factory.

Great video of a Coca Cola manufacturing line.  Ever wonder how this wonderful beverage is manufactured?  Look no further.

Coca-Cola is a popular carbonated soft drink that is produced and sold by the Coca-Cola Company, a multinational corporation based in Atlanta, Georgia. The manufacturing process for Coca-Cola involves several steps, including the mixing of ingredients, the bottling and packaging of the finished product, and the distribution of the product to retail outlets.

In the mixing process, water, sweeteners, and flavorings are combined to create a syrup, which is then mixed with carbonated water to create the finished product. The syrup is typically made from a blend of high fructose corn syrup, glucose or fructose, and natural flavors.

After the syrup is mixed with carbonated water, the finished product is then bottled and packaged in a variety of sizes, including cans, glass bottles, and plastic bottles. The bottles and cans are filled with the finished product using specialized filling and capping equipment.

Finally, the packaged products are shipped to retail outlets around the world, where they are sold to consumers. The exact details of the manufacturing process may vary slightly depending on the specific product and location, but the general process is similar for all Coca-Cola products.

Manufacturing Quotes

  • “Coca-Cola is little more than sugar, some flavoring, and lots of (carbonated) water. It is largely indistinguishable from innumerable other brands of cola, yet people around the world seem to think that Coca-Cola is something and they are eager to ask for it by name and even to pay a premium for it.” ~ George Ritzer
  • “If we reduce batch sizes by half, we also reduce by half the time it will take to process a batch. That means we reduce queue and wait by half as well. Reduce those by half, and we reduce by about half the total time parts spend in the plant. Reduce the time parts spend in the plant and our total lead time condenses. And with faster turn-around on orders, customers get their orders faster.” ~Eliyahu M. Goldratt, The Goal
  • “We always want to create something new out of nothing, and without research, and without long hard hours of effort. But there is no such things as a quantum leap. There is only dogged persistence—and in the end you make it look like a quantum leap.” ~James Dyson
  • “Why not make the work easier and more interesting so that people do not have to sweat? The Toyota style is not to create results by working hard. It is a system that says there is no limit to people’s creativity. People don’t go to Toyota to ‘work’ they go there to ‘think”   ~Taiichi Ohno
  • “I’d rather see you drink a glass of wine than a glass of milk. So many people drink Coca-Cola and all these soft drinks with sugar. Some of these drinks have 8 or 9 teaspoons of sugar in them What’s the good of living if you can’t have the things that give a little enjoyment?” ~ Jack LaLanne
  • “1. Increase Visibility 2. Reduce variability.  These two activities encompass all layers of supply chain management.” ~SupplyChainToday.com
  • “Life is pretty simple: You do some stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works. If it works big, others quickly copy it. Then you do something else. The trick is the doing something else.” ~Tom Peters
  • “Today’s standardization…is the necessary foundation on which tomorrow’s improvements will be based. If you think “standardization” as the best you know today, but which is to be improved tomorrow – you get somewhere. But if you think of standards as confining, then progress stops.” ~Henry Ford
