Hummus Filling Machine — SDH-R automatic cup filler and sealer
Hummus Equipment

Hummus Filling Machine & Cup Sealer

The SDH-R fills, seals, and caps hummus cups at up to 30 per minute with ±0.5% accuracy — a complete automatic hummus filling and sealing machine from $45,000.

The SDH-R hummus filling machine is a fully automatic rotary system that fills, seals, and caps hummus cups in a single pass — engineered by Hummus Pack specifically for the world's fastest-growing dip category. If you're scaling from hand-filling or a semi-automatic line, this is the equipment that turns packaging from a labour bottleneck into a consistent, retail-ready process at up to 30 cups per minute. It is equally at home as a standalone hummus cup sealer and filler or as the core of a larger hummus production line.

Why Buyers Choose the SDH-R

Why the SDH-R Is the Right Hummus Filling Machine

All-in-One Fill, Seal & Cap

One compact rotary machine denests cups, fills hummus, applies a tamper-evident membrane seal, and adds an optional snap lid — no separate sealer or capper to buy or maintain.

Servo-Driven ±0.5% Accuracy

The volumetric piston filler meters by displaced volume, holding ±0.5% fill-weight accuracy across smooth, whipped, and chunky hummus — protecting net-weight compliance and margins.

MAP Nitrogen for Retail Shelf Life

Optional nitrogen flushing replaces headspace oxygen before sealing, extending refrigerated hummus shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days — the range grocery distribution demands.

Made in Canada, Fully Certified

Built from 304 stainless steel for CIP sanitation and HACCP/BRCGS facilities, the SDH-R ships with CE, FDA, and UL documentation and a 12-month warranty.

How the SDH-R Fills & Seals Hummus

From empty cup to sealed, retail-ready hummus — fully automatic, no manual labour

1

Cup Denesting

Empty cups are automatically separated from a nested stack and placed into the rotary table carriers. The pneumatic denester handles round, square, and rectangular cups from 2oz to 32oz.

2

Servo-Driven Filling

The volumetric piston filler draws a precise dose and dispenses it into the cup. Servo control adjusts stroke length and speed per recipe, maintaining ±0.5% fill-weight accuracy. The PLC stores recipes for quick changeovers.

3

Membrane Heat Sealing

Roll-stock film is drawn across the filled cup and heat-sealed to create a tamper-evident, airtight membrane. Sealing temperature, pressure, and dwell time are individually controlled to match your film and cup materials.

4

Snap-On Lid (Optional)

A pick-and-place mechanism applies a consumer-friendly snap-on lid over the membrane seal — a two-barrier system providing tamper evidence and reclosability for grocery retail and foodservice.

5

MAP Nitrogen Flush (Optional)

Modified Atmosphere Packaging replaces headspace oxygen with food-grade nitrogen immediately before sealing, typically extending refrigerated shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days.

Compliance & Certifications: Every SDH-R machine ships with CE (European conformity), FDA (US food-contact compliance), and UL (electrical safety) documentation. The all-304 stainless-steel construction is designed for HACCP and BRCGS-audited facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions

The SDH-R hummus filling machine starts at $45,000 USD for the single-filler configuration. Final price depends on the number of filler stations (up to three), MAP nitrogen flushing, labeling integration, and custom cup tooling. Contact us for a quote scoped to your products and volume.

The SDH-R fills up to 30 cups per minute in dry-cycle operation. Real-world throughput for hummus typically runs 18–25 cups per minute depending on cup size, fill weight, sealing method, and whether MAP nitrogen flushing is enabled.

Yes. The SDH-R is an all-in-one hummus filling and sealing machine — it denests the cup, fills it with a servo-driven piston, applies a tamper-evident roll-film membrane seal, and can add an optional snap-on lid, all in one automatic rotary pass.

The servo-driven volumetric piston filler holds ±0.5% fill-weight accuracy across classic, whipped, and chunky hummus textures. Consistent fills protect your net-weight compliance and reduce costly product give-away.

Standard delivery is typically 8–12 weeks from order confirmation, depending on configuration. Every SDH-R is made in Canada, ships with CE, FDA, and UL documentation, and includes a 12-month warranty.
