How to Choose a Yogurt Cup Filling and Sealing Solution? Start With Cup Type, Film Material, Filling Volume and Output
Illustrative packaging route for equipment selection. Final configuration must be confirmed from samples, packaging materials and target output.
  • Flowing and fruit yogurt require different filling methods, and the rim of PP or PET cups and roll film or pre-cut film also limit the sealing main machine. Yogurt samples, actual cup film, fruit granule state, fill volume, cleaning requirements, and planned capacity must be provided.
  • Yogurt cup dropping, filling, and film sealing equipment route

Solution summary prepared for you

  • For yogurt cup equipment, first use actual material to confirm flow, fruit particles, and filling cutoff, then verify sealing with PP or PET cups and formal lid film.
  • A small cup filling and sealing machine can continuously complete cup dropping, filling, and film sealing. If cup and film compatibility is not yet confirmed, a small-diameter cup sealing machine SGP-03 can be used for trial sealing first.
  • Rotary multi-station equipment should be evaluated after cup type, fill volume, changeover, and output are clear; do not replace continuous trial operation with a desired speed.

Yogurt, cups, and film materials should be sampled together

For yogurt cup selection, first verify the actual yogurt, cup type, lid film, fill volume, and output, then compare the filling and sealing process.

First distinguish the material, cup type, and film feeding method

Fruit granules and flow state determine the filling channels, the cup rim determines the tooling, and roll film and pre-cut film determine film feeding and positioning. Any change in these three items may change the main machine configuration.

The integrated machine verifies the complete denesting, filling, and sealing process

The small cup filling and sealing machine can continuously complete cup denesting, filling, and film sealing. Trial runs require actual yogurt and formal cup film to check rim contamination and the connection of each action.

Small cup trial sealing first solves packaging material matching

The small-diameter cup sealing machine SGP-03 can be used to verify the cup rim, film heat-seal layer, and easy-tear performance, helping to rule out basic packaging material issues before configuring the full line.

Multi-station configuration is based on changeover and takt time

After the cup type, fill volume, changeover frequency, and planned output are clear, evaluate the rotary table cup and tray filling and sealing machine. Station arrangement must be verified through continuous trial runs.

Film materials and changeover parts are matched to the cup type

Small cup sealing film and easy-tear film consumables should be trial-sealed together with the actual cup material. Tooling and changeover parts are configured according to each cup rim, cup height, and film feeding method.

Main machine selection first looks at the complete process scope

For automatic cup denesting, filling, and film sealing, prioritize verifying the integrated process. If only checking cup-film matching, a separate trial seal can be done first.

Cleaning and changeover enter daily operation verification

In addition to packaging results, trial runs should also record material change, cleaning, and cup type changeover steps to confirm these operations match the planned production method.

Downstream marking and inspection are added based on clear requirements

Inkjet coding, labeling, or checkweighing are added after the main sealing takt is stable. Only when traceability or weight inspection standards already exist should the corresponding positions and triggers be determined.

Route comparison

01Small cup filling and sealing integrated route
  • When cup type, yogurt state, and sealing film can be sampled as a set, and you want cup dropping, filling, and film sealing completed continuously, a small cup filling and sealing machine can be evaluated.
  • In the same process, cup dropping, filling cutoff, and film sealing positioning can be observed, facilitating verification of station connection according to actual cycles.
  • If any of material, cup mouth, or film is not matched, continuous operation will be affected. Equipment name cannot replace cup and film trial sealing.
  • When cup type, film form, or yogurt state is not yet determined, it is not appropriate to directly confirm the integrated machine mold and filling structure.
  • A small cup filling and sealing machine can be evaluated, and continuous trial operation completed with actual material, cup samples, and formal film.
02Small cup separate trial sealing route
  • When the project needs to first verify cup rim and lid film compatibility, or automatic cup dropping and filling is not yet needed, a small-diameter cup sealing machine SGP-03 can be used for trial sealing.
  • Film, cup rim, and easy-peel issues can be independently identified first, then decide whether to enter the integrated filling and sealing process.
  • Separate trial sealing does not include cup dropping and filling, so it cannot be used to derive whole-line output or cup rim contamination status.
  • When the project clearly requires automatic cup dropping, quantitative filling, and continuous film sealing, configuring only a separate sealer cannot cover the complete process.
  • A small-diameter cup sealing machine SGP-03 can be evaluated, and trial sealing results recorded using formal cup film.
03Rotary table multi-station route
  • When the cup type and film material are stable, changeover and target output are clear, and multi-station continuous processing is needed, the rotary table cup and tray filling and sealing machine can be evaluated.
  • Multiple actions can be verified in a fixed station sequence, facilitating arrangement of cup dropping, filling, and film sealing around the actual cup type.
  • The number of stations, molds, and changeovers are still constrained by actual samples; adding configuration does not naturally increase actual output.
  • If sample specifications change frequently but changeover boundaries are not organized, or the cup film has not been trial-sealed, basic verification should be completed first.
  • A rotary cup and tray filling and sealing machine can be evaluated, with final stations confirmed according to cup film, actual material, and continuous cycle time.

Core process

01Check yogurt, cups, and film as a set

First use actual yogurt to confirm flow, fruit particles, and filling cutoff, then form a sample set with PP or PET cups, formal lid film, and print. Also state fill volume, cleaning, and planned cycle time.

02Yogurt cup dropping, filling, and sealing

A small cup filling and sealing machine can integrate cup dropping, filling, and film sealing into one process; before configuration, verify each action with actual material and formal cup film.

03Small cup separate trial sealing

Small-diameter cup sealing machine SGP-03 can be used to first verify cup rim and film compatibility, helping to separate packaging material issues from filling issues.

04Rotary multi-station alternative

After cup type, fill volume, changeover, and output requirements are clear, evaluate the rotary cup and tray filling and sealing machine and trial run according to the continuous cycle time of each station.

05Film and changeover parts confirmation

Small cup sealing film and easy-peel film consumables should be trial sealed together with cup material; molds and changeover parts are confirmed according to each cup mouth, cup height, and film supply method.

06Cleaning and downstream marking integration

After the main machine is stable, arrange inkjet coding, checkweighing, or conveying according to product traceability and weight inspection requirements. Cleaning methods should also be included in daily operation verification.

Associated Equipment / Consumables

Sample details

01Submit actual cup types

Cup type determines cup dropping, molds, and film sealing positioning; multiple specifications on one line also increase changeover items.

Provide all common cup samples, indicating cup mouth, cup height, material, fill volume, and usage ratio for each specification.
02Submit formal sealing film

Only after trial sealing the film with the cup rim as a set can the compatibility of sealing and film supply structure be judged.

Provide actual samples of roll film or pre-cut film, explaining material, heat-seal layer, easy-peel requirements, roll direction, and print registration.
03Specify yogurt state

Actual material is used to verify filling channel, cutoff, and cup rim contamination, avoiding configuration based only on viscosity description.

Prepare production-state yogurt, explaining flow, fruit particles, temperature, and cleaning requirements.
04List output and changeover

This information is used to compare small cup integrated machine and rotary multi-station processes, and to arrange buffering and operation.

Specify target cups per hour or per shift, common cup type changeover frequency, and the stations you want completed in one integrated process.
05Supplement on-site and downstream requirements

Downstream position should be confirmed based on the cup body state after sealing; on-site information is used to reserve operation and maintenance space.

Provide available space, conveying direction, cleaning conditions, and state whether inkjet coding, labeling, or checkweighing is needed.
06Agree on trial and acceptance records

Write acceptance items clearly in advance to facilitate item-by-item review using the same batch of cup film and yogurt.

List the items to check: fill volume, cup rim cleanliness, seal film appearance, easy-peel, and downstream traceability; if information is insufficient, send existing samples first.

Common selection mistakes

01Selecting a sealing machine only by cup mouth size

Cups with the same diameter may have different rims and rigidity. Trial sealing should observe the seal edge, easy-peel, and cup body stress.

02Not trial filling with fruit yogurt

Record particle passage, metering, dripping, and cup rim contamination during trial filling, then decide on filling nozzles and cleaning arrangements.

03Roll film and pre-cut film not separately specified

Check roll direction, registration marks, and heat-seal layer on the formal film to avoid discovering a mismatched film supply structure after the machine is completed.

04Upgrading to multi-station directly based on target output

First stabilize cup, film, and material samples, then record continuous cycle time; do not calculate configuration using only a planned speed.

05Cleaning and traceability added at the end

Clarify cleaning between material changes, batch number position, and inspection standards, and verify downstream triggering and conveying after the main machine is stable.

Common questions

01Can the same filling configuration be used for drinkable yogurt and fruit yogurt?

Do not judge only by product name. Fruit particle state, viscosity, and flow affect the filling channel and cutoff, so confirm after trial filling with the actual material.

02What cup and film information should be provided before confirming a solution?

Prepare actual cup samples, sealing film, film form and roll direction, and specify cup mouth size, fill volume, cleaning, common specifications, and planned output.

03Why trial seal with a small cup sealing machine first?

A separate trial seal can first check the cup rim, film heat-seal layer, and easy-peel performance, avoiding mistaking packaging material mismatch for a machine filling problem.

04When should a rotary multi-station machine be considered?

After cup type, film material, fill volume, changeover, and target output are clear, compare rotary multi-station configurations based on continuous trial machine cycle time.

05How to check the sealing effect of yogurt cups?

Use actual yogurt, cups, and formal film for continuous sampling, observe cup rim contamination, film surface, and seal edges, and record sealing and easy-peel results according to the agreed method.

06When should inkjet coding or checkweighing be integrated?

Connect after the actual cycle times of cup dropping, filling, and sealing are stable. If traceability or weight inspection is confirmed, reserve space during the layout stage.
