Hummus Filling Machine in Midlands

SDH-R automatic hummus filling, sealing & cupping for Midlands food producers. Servo-driven precision at 30 cups per minute — from $45,000 USD.

Hummus Packaging for Midlands Producers

Hummus is the SDH-R's signature product. The servo-driven volumetric piston filler handles classic, roasted garlic, roasted red pepper, lemon herb, and every other hummus variant with consistent fill weights and clean cup edges. Chickpea-based products have a medium-to-thick viscosity that the SDH-R's adjustable piston stroke manages precisely — from smooth restaurant-style hummus to chunky rustic blends with whole chickpeas and pine nuts.

The Midlands is the UK's most concentrated food-manufacturing region by number of facilities. Leicester is a national center for Indian and South Asian food production, while the West Midlands hosts prepared-food companies and dairy co-packers. The region's M1/M6 motorway access provides next-day distribution to every UK supermarket distribution center. BRCGS certification is standard across Midlands food facilities, and the SDH-R's hygienic design supports ongoing audit compliance.

Purpose-Built for Hummus

Why the SDH-R Excels at Hummus

Servo-Driven Piston Accuracy

Volumetric piston filling delivers ±0.5% weight accuracy across classic, chunky, and whipped hummus textures — critical for retail compliance and cost control.

Multi-Component Capability

Fill hummus base + olive oil drizzle + paprika garnish in a single cup pass. Up to three filler stations work simultaneously for layered presentations.

MAP Nitrogen Flushing

Modified Atmosphere Packaging replaces oxygen with nitrogen, extending refrigerated hummus shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days for retail distribution.

Quick Flavour Changeover

Switch between classic, garlic, jalapeño, roasted red pepper, and other flavours in under 15 minutes via PLC recipe recall and tool-free hopper swap.

How the SDH-R Fills Hummus in Midlands

Fully automatic process — no manual labour required

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 — standard formats for hummus packaging in Midlands.

2

Servo-Driven Filling

The volumetric piston filler draws a precise dose of hummus and dispenses it into the cup. Servo control adjusts stroke length and speed per recipe, maintaining ±0.5% fill-weight accuracy across production runs for Midlands retail compliance.

3

Membrane Heat Sealing

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

4

Snap-On Lid (Optional)

A pick-and-place mechanism applies a consumer-friendly snap-on lid over the membrane seal. This two-barrier system provides tamper evidence and reclosability — the standard expected by grocery retailers.

5

MAP Nitrogen Flush (Optional)

Modified Atmosphere Packaging replaces oxygen with food-grade nitrogen before sealing. For hummus, this extends refrigerated shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days — essential for retail distribution in Midlands.

Compliance & Certifications: Every SDH-R machine ships with CE, FDA, and UL documentation. The 304 stainless-steel construction meets HACCP and BRCGS standards — ensuring your hummus packaging meets Midlands regulatory requirements.
