In brief

Trial lid separation, placement and finished-seal acceptance. Include registration, film handling, cutting, waste and format change; confirm cup-and-film compatibility.

For routine production using liquid cup filling and foil sealing, a short trial that reproduces the difficult condition is often more useful than a long list of nominal specifications.

Planning your application

Compare options in the conditions where they must work — Liquid Cup Fillers

Plan liquid cup fillers around your product, pack range, target output, cleaning needs and finished-pack checks. Discuss a practical line concept with Lancing using representative samples. A useful shortlist should show how every option copes with liquid cup filling & foil sealing product behaviour and cleaning, access and changeover method.
