Cup Thermoformer with In-Mold Labeling (IML)

EQUIPMENT

Thermoform Cup Filler with In-Mold Labeling (IML)

Automatic Form-Fill-Seal (FFS) machine designed for industrial production of yogurt and dairy desserts. Integrates In-Mold Labeling (IML) technology for premium finishes, ensuring a continuous sanitary process from the plastic reel to the finished product, ideal for optimizing logistics and quality.

Transform your cost structure by replacing pre-formed containers with in-situ manufacturing: reduce warehouse space by 80% and achieve a lower unit cost per cup.

ADVANTAGES

• •FFS (Form-Fill-Seal) Architecture: By working with plastic material reels instead of pre-formed cups, storage volume is drastically reduced (one reel equals thousands of cups) and packaging material costs are minimized, improving operating cash flow.
• •In-Mold Labeling (IML) System: The label becomes an integral part of the container during forming. This provides superior moisture resistance (critical in the yogurt cold chain) and allows decoration of the side walls and bottom of the cup in a single pass, elevating brand value perception.
• •High-Precision Dosing: Equipped to handle liquid and viscous products (yogurt, cream, jellies), the filling station ensures an exact weight in each cycle, avoiding product waste (giveaway) and guaranteeing regulatory compliance on net content.
• •Material and Format Versatility: Compatible with standard thermoformable materials (PS, PP, PET) and capable of producing multipack configurations (4-pack, 6-pack) or individual cups, allowing quick response to changes in consumer trends.
• •Sanitary and Compact Design: The machine structure facilitates cleaning and maintenance processes. By performing forming and filling in an immediately controlled environment, container exposure to the environment is significantly reduced, protecting the shelf life of the dairy product.

Automated thermoforming and packaging equipment designed for the food and dairy industry. Produces hygienic and sterile containers with direct in-mold labeling, guaranteeing precision and high quality.

Its multi-stage air filtration system maintains a clean environment, while the cutting unit optimizes material usage. It can be integrated with robotic filling, case packing and palletizing systems, offering a complete solution for efficient, safe and high-performance operations.

• •Applications: Yogurt, cream, desserts, cheese and other liquid or semi-solid products.
