Vacuum fillers are designed for the precise and efficient filling of a wide range of viscous and semi-viscous products, including dairy items like cream cheese and yogurt. These machines operate by employing a rotary valve pump mechanism that generates a vacuum, effectively drawing the product into a chamber positioned directly above the container to be filled. This method ensures a consistent and controlled product flow, making it an essential tool for manufacturers looking to optimize their packaging processes for products with challenging consistencies.

Typical products and applications include:

• Cream cheese or cheese spreads: Accurately portioned into tubs or pouches with minimal air pockets
• Yogurt and dairy-based dips: Smoothly filled into retail containers while preserving texture
• Hummus or guacamole: Packaged in vacuum-filled containers to extend freshness and reduce oxidation
• Pet food pastes or pâtés: Deposited into trays or cans with consistent fill levels
• Cosmetic creams or balms: Filled without introducing excess air, preserving product integrity and shelf life

Additional Considerations:

• Ideal for thick, pasty products: Provides smooth, uniform fills even for dense or sticky formulations
• Reduces air inclusion: Helps prevent product separation, discoloration, or spoilage due to trapped air
• Delivers consistent portion control: Essential for meeting weight or volume accuracy requirements
• Supports hygienic filling processes: Built with food- or pharma-grade materials and designed for easy cleaning
• Offered in various automation levels: Available as semi-automatic units for small batches or fully automated systems for high-volume lines
