In brief

Supply representative jars and closures for the intended range, including the least forgiving opening and intended highest fill. Review jar presentation, nozzle release and transfer towards closing with the actual recipes; one successful format trial does not establish the whole range.

For routine production using viscous nut-butter filling, describe the realistic range and how changes in container, bag or pack range affect the result you need.

Turn your production information into clearer decisions — Nut Butter Filling Machines

Plan nut butter filling machines around your product, pack range, target output, cleaning needs and finished-pack checks. Discuss a practical line concept with Lancing using representative samples. Use this guide to resolve container, bag or pack range before it limits the final system.

What to record

Container, Bag or Pack Range: condition, range and effect on your process

Current condition

Identify the jar and closure combination used for each recipe and dose. Provide samples or authorised drawings and record opening, presentation and fill requirements alongside the product condition at filling.

Realistic range

Include the least forgiving jar opening, intended highest fill and demanding textured recipe. Record the actual sequence of jar or recipe changes and check first packs as well as stable production.

Effect on the system

Review the settings or parts affected by jar presentation and filling, then check rim cleanliness after transfer into closing. Separate format changes from product-contact emptying and cleaning when the recipe also changes.

Before you contact us

Five questions about container, bag or pack range for your application

  1. Who can confirm this information?Identify the person responsible for container, bag or pack range in production, quality, engineering or operations.
  2. How representative is the sample?Include age, supplier, batch, environment and upstream process state where they affect nut butter filling machines.
  3. What is the difficult condition?Include the least forgiving intended jar opening, high-fill requirement or textured recipe that exposes poor release or a dirty closing area. Use representative production samples rather than assuming every difficult format is suitable.
  4. How will you judge the result?Agree the method, repetitions, acceptable range, result record and the response if the observed result falls outside the agreed range.
  5. What else must be coordinated?Your final nut butter filling machines scope must also account for cleaning, access and changeover method, finished-pack checks and reject handling, current regulations and the conditions at your site.

Question 1

Viscous Nut-Butter Filling Product Behaviour

Use the intended smooth and textured recipes with each relevant jar format. Product condition and cut-off must be checked with the opening and fill requirement actually proposed.

Question 2

Container, Bag or Pack Range

List the jar and closure combinations, with representative samples and opening or presentation differences. Do not assume one successful jar trial covers every format.

Question 3

Target Dose, Count or Pack Weight

State the target quantity and intended highest fill for each format. Agree how quantity and the closing area will be checked after transfer from filling.

Question 4

Required Output and Production Pattern

Describe format frequency, batch pattern, jar presentation and the transfer towards closing. Include the time and checks needed before accepted production resumes.

Question 5

Cleaning, Access and Changeover Method

Distinguish jar-format settings or parts from product-contact emptying and cleaning. Record recipe carryover and the food business cleaning or allergen-control requirements when products also change.

Question 6

Finished-Pack Checks and Reject Handling

Check quantity, product condition and rim or sealing-surface cleanliness on representative jars after transfer. Retain the format, settings and agreed response to an unacceptable result.
