Thermoforming, fill and seal machines in the TFC series are set up for ultracleanfill packaging, That means the filled products such as yoghurt and similar desserts can be displayed on the retail refrigerator shelves three to four weeks longer than any cleanfill packaged fresh product. The TFC machines operate with the degermination of the base and lid web by hot water. The enclosed tunnel and the overpressure of filtered air maintain the hygienic condition. The full metal piston filler is sterilised by hot steam. The machine output ranges from 24,000 to 60,000 cups per hour.
