WORKING PRINCIPLE:
  • A mechanical drive turns the rotary turret and stops at each station for undertaking individual functions in automatic mode
  • The empty cup is first discharged into the cavity of the rotary turret by a special vacuum system. It is then transferred under the cup filler. A pair of sensors detects the position of the cups and the filling stations provide the set dosage into the cup. In case of non-detection of the cup there is no dose dispensed by the piston filler. The filling process is carried out automatically and filling accuracy is about 0.5 – 1%. The product hopper has a capacity of 30 litres
  • The filled cup is then transferred on the rotary turret to the lid placement station. Lids are taken by vacuum cup from the magazine and are gently placing on the cup
  • The lid is then sealed on to the cup by heat sealing. At the same time, date is embossed on the bottom of the cup by heat (standard version)
  • A plastic lid may be placed & snapped onto the ready cup (option)
  • The cup is then discharged on to a belt conveyor (1 metre) for collection & final packing into cartons
OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT FOR PACKING OF SPECIALIZED PRODUCTS:
  • Modified filler design for working with products having suspended particles
  • Unit for lifting and rotation of cup for uniform filling for high viscous products)
  • Unit for placing and closing of plastic lid on the cup
  • Stand-alone product hopper with heating (for hot products) and agitator- (for highly viscous products)
