Tub filling and sealing for pasty products
When working with pasty products like butter, margarine, or fresh cheese, maintaining high hygiene standards and efficient filling processes is crucial. Challenges emerge in ensuring precise dosing, minimizing waste, and achieving rapid, reliable filling and sealing of pre-formed tubs.
Fill and seal tubs with accuracy and speed
The Copparapid 6000 by IMA is a tub filling and sealing solution designed to handle pasty products with stringent hygiene requirements. This four-line system operates at up to 200 tubs per minute, ensuring efficient production. With a modular design and high compactness, it offers exceptional accuracy (s = 0.5 g for Qn < 250 g) and reliability. The machine is compatible with a wide dosing range (50 g to 1,000 g), accommodating various product standards. Additionally, it supports different dosing systems and end-of-line packaging solutions. The system's main servo drive and cam-controlled transfer mechanisms for movements enhance precision without a negative impact on size parts. Supporting industries include dairy, food processing, and other sectors dealing with pasty products. Notable features include a clean-in-place (CIP) unit, date coding, laminar flow, and UVC sterilization.
