Plastic Cup Filling and Sealing Machines
Plastic Cup Filling and Sealing Machines
SIGITASPAK supplies plastic cup filling and sealing machines for dairy products, desserts, sauces, spreads, pastes, ready meals and portioned food products packed into ready-made cups.
Plastic cup packaging is used when the manufacturer needs accurate portioning, hygienic filling, reliable foil sealing, convenient retail presentation and stable shelf handling. This format is suitable for chilled, ambient and ready-to-eat products.
The line is selected according to product viscosity, filling volume, cup diameter, cup height, foil type, lid requirement, sanitary level, required output and integration with coding, inspection, conveyors and downstream packaging equipment.
Plastic cup filling: what production tasks the equipment solves
Plastic cup filling and sealing machines are used when a product is ready for portion dosing and must be packed into a consumer cup or container. The machine can feed empty cups, dose the product, place foil, seal the cup, apply a lid, print the date and discharge finished packs to the next conveyor.
This packaging format is widely used in dairy, convenience food, sauces, spreads and chilled food production. Depending on the product and capacity, the solution can be built on a compact rotary machine or a multi-row linear filling and sealing line.
- Filling machines for yogurt, sour cream, cottage cheese, cream, desserts, sauces, spreads, pâté, caviar and ready meals.
- Sealing equipment for plastic cups with aluminum foil, plastic lids and additional closure options.
- Rotary filling machines for compact layouts and medium production capacities.
- Linear filling and sealing machines for higher output, multi-row filling and extended sanitary options.
Rotary filling and sealing machines for plastic cups
Rotary PASTPACK machines are selected when the manufacturer needs a compact layout, sequential operations around a rotary table and automatic filling into ready-made plastic cups or containers. This configuration is suitable for dairy products, desserts, sauces, spreads, pâté, caviar, preserves and products that require foil sealing or plastic lid placing.
Linear filling and sealing machines for cups and containers
Linear PASTPACK machines are selected when the factory needs higher output, several cup rows, convenient placement of technological units and extended hygiene configuration. Linear machines are suitable for dairy products, desserts, sauces, pastes, salads, preserves and products with soft inclusions.
How to choose a rotary or linear cup filling machine
A rotary machine is suitable for compact production areas, medium capacities and projects where the available floor space is limited. A linear machine is selected when the manufacturer needs higher output, several rows of cups and the possibility to install additional units for cup treatment, second product dosing, foil sealing, lid placing, inspection and discharge.
- Rotary machines are suitable for compact cup filling and sealing with sequential operations on a rotary table.
- Linear machines are suitable for high-capacity production and multi-row cup filling lines.
- Ultra Clean execution can be considered for sensitive dairy products and desserts with increased hygiene requirements.
- Two-product filling can be used for desserts, layered products, sauces and products with decorative filling patterns.
- Downstream integration can include date coding, labeling, checkweighing, case packing, carton sealing and palletizing.
What should be checked before equipment selection
Before selecting a filling and sealing machine, it is necessary to evaluate the product, cup, foil, lid and full production route. For liquid and pasty products, viscosity, filling temperature, soft inclusions, required dosing accuracy and product behaviour on the cup flange before sealing are critical.
| Parameter | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Cup format | Diameter, height, shape, flange width, material and cup stack quality. | These parameters affect cup denesting, positioning, sealing quality and machine format parts. |
| Product | Viscosity, temperature, inclusions, foaming and dosing accuracy. | The product determines dosing system type, filling nozzle and sanitary options. |
| Sealing | Foil material, seal temperature, seal contour and required tightness. | Correct sealing protects the product and prevents leakage during logistics. |
| Lid | Plastic lid type, lid stack, lid placing and final closure requirement. | Lid handling must be matched with the exact cup and retail package design. |
| Capacity | Required cups per hour and number of rows. | Capacity defines whether rotary or linear equipment is more suitable. |
| Integration | Date coding, inspection, labeling, case packing and palletizing. | The filling machine can be integrated into a complete production line. |

FAQ: plastic cup filling and sealing machines
What equipment is used for plastic cup filling?
Plastic cup filling is usually performed on rotary or linear PASTPACK machines. They can feed cups, dose the product, apply foil, seal the cup, place a plastic lid, print the date and discharge finished packages.
What products can be packed into plastic cups?
Plastic cups are used for yogurt, sour cream, cottage cheese, cream, dairy desserts, processed cheese, sauces, mayonnaise, ketchup, chocolate spread, jam, pâté, caviar, preserves, ready meals and other portioned food products.
What is the difference between rotary and linear machines?
Rotary machines are more compact and perform operations around a rotary table. Linear machines are suitable for higher capacity, multi-row filling and additional modules for cup treatment, dosing, sealing, lid placing and inspection.
Can cups be sealed with foil and closed with a lid?
Yes. PASTPACK machines can be configured with aluminum foil sealing and plastic lid placing. The final configuration depends on cup shape, product type and hermetic sealing requirements.
What data is needed to select a machine?
Product type, viscosity, filling temperature, dose volume, cup dimensions, foil type, lid type, required capacity, hygiene level and downstream packaging plan are required for correct machine selection.
