Servo‑driven linear filler for preformed cups with Ultra Clean hygiene and production up to 22,000 pcs/h
The Linear Yogurt and Cream Cup Filling Machine is a servo‑motorized linear system designed to fill and seal preformed plastic cups in multi‑lane configurations. It is optimized for dairy products with varying viscosities, including stirred yogurt, cream, and spreadable cheeses, while maintaining high throughput and controlled hygienic conditions.
The machine operates with an intermittent indexed motion and coordinates cup feeding, optional pre‑sterilization, dosing, and sealing in a closed, controlled environment. The filling section uses a servo‑controlled volumetric dosing system engineered to achieve a maximum deviation of ±0.5%, supporting net‑weight compliance and minimizing product giveaway.
For enhanced hygienic performance, the Ultra Clean concept integrates cup decontamination using UV light and supports operation under HEPA H14 laminar flow to maintain positive pressure and reduce airborne contamination risk during filling.
The system is scalable from 4 to 12 filling nozzles, delivering production ranges from 4,000 to 22,000 containers per hour, depending on product characteristics and format.
A full CIP-ready design supports automated cleaning of product circuits and balance tanks, while sealing can be configured for pre‑cut aluminum foil membranes and/or snap‑on lids, ensuring hermetic closure and consistent final presentation.
Key benefits

• Ultra Clean hygienic architecture with UV and optional HEPA H14 laminar flow
• Scalable multi‑lane design (4–12 nozzles) for up to 22,000 pcs/h
• Reduced product giveaway and improved regulatory net‑content compliance
• CIP integration for repeatable, validatable sanitation
Main Features and Advantages
±0.5% servo-controlled filling precision: The servo-motorized dosing system guarantees a maximum weight variation of ±0.5% per cup, reducing product waste and ensuring regulatory compliance of the declared net weight.
Complete filling and sealing cycle: The filler performs yogurt or cream dosing and aluminium sealing in a continuous cycle, eliminating the need for separate equipment at each stage and reducing plant footprint.
Servo-motorized linear design: Linear architecture with servo-motorized drives enables precise speed adjustment at each station, simplifying format changeover and reducing startup time.
Compatible with pre-formed cups for yogurt and cream: Accepts a wide range of pre-formed cups in different materials (PP, PS, PET), heights and diameters, without mechanical modifications, adapting to market needs.
