Function of Yogurt Cup Filling and Sealing Machine

Jan 11, 2026

A yogurt cup filling and sealing machine automates packaging by precisely filling cups with yogurt (or similar semi-liquids) and then securely sealing them with foil or plastic lids, ensuring hygiene, preventing leaks, extending shelf life, and increasing production speed, handling processes like cup placement, filling, sealing, film cutting, and automatic cup discharge.

Key Functions:

● Cup Handling: Automatically drops empty cups into position, often using vacuum suction for accuracy.

● Precise Filling: Dispenses a set volume of yogurt into each cup, minimizing waste and ensuring consistency, using systems like piston fillers or volumetric dispensers.

● Sterilization & Tracking: May include UV sterilization and photoelectric sensors to ensure cleanliness and track cup positions.

● Sealing: Applies pre-cut foil or film lids (or uses roll film) with heat or pressure to create an airtight, leak-proof, and tamper-evident seal.

● Film Management: Cuts the sealed film and automatically rewinds the waste film.

● Output: Discharges the finished, sealed cups for further processing or packaging.

● Customization: Can be programmed for different product viscosities (thick vs. liquid) and includes optional features like date printing, CIP cleaning, or heating.

Benefits:

● Efficiency: Dramatically increases output compared to manual methods.

● Hygiene: Reduces human contact, meeting high hygiene standards.

● Product Integrity: Airtight seals preserve freshness, flavor, and nutrients.

● Accuracy: Precise filling reduces product giveaway.
