Does anyone use automated equipment to bottle? Are there any issues with vacuum systems and O2 exposure at bottling?

Like a bottling line? I'm pretty sure even the cheapest bottling lines are out of the reach of homebrewers. I put together a design for an automated capper for homebrewers that could do about a case at a time, but I think even that would be too expensive for most homebrewers. It probably couldn't be sold for less than $300-$400.

a counter pressure filler, is pretty much a scaled down version of a bottling line process. Another alternative for homebrewers is the beergun.I have seen one head bottle CPF that are much easier to use than a normal CPF. I have seen these in BOP and assume some small breweries also use them
