Finnish dairy producer Valio has added its fifth Combiseptic 81-series cup filling and sealing machine manufactured by Oystar Gasti.
With an output of up to 16,000 cups per hour, the format and product flexible, two-lane machine will increase the production capacities at Valio’s plant in Oulu starting in December 2014.
The machine with two dosing units will be filling pre-formed 75 mm-diameter cups with a range of dairy items.
The continuous operation of the machine means that filled cups can be transported to the sealing station at high speeds without the contents sloshing around.
The modular design of the machine makes it possible to change formats in less than 30 minutes; it also has a built-in, automatic clean-in-place cleaning function.
