HAMBA machines of series BK 6000, 8000 and 10000 -
our high performance cup filling and closing machines
The ever-increasing
requirements of the
dairy product market
mean that the industry
has to be in a position to
guarantee higher and
higher production rates.
Our HAMBA machines
of series BK 6000 and
8000 with an average
output of 12.000 to
40.000 cups / hour
correspond to these
requirements. Our
ultimate concept among
high performance cup
filling and closing
machines is the HAMBA
BK 10012/12 with an
output of maximum
57.600 cups / hour.
These machines offer a
high performance on
one machine with, at
the same time, a saving
in space and personnel.
The performances now
attainable with the
HAMBA machines of BK
series result in a
reduction in production
costs compared to
conventional cup filling
machines. In addition,
we guarantee - for an
increased productivity -
the same maintenance
and running costs as
given previously.
The operation of these
high performance
HAMBA BK machines
controlled by a PLC and
the display controlled
operation is simple and
can be easily assured by
your operating
personnel.

ASEPTIC –
long shelf life cycles together with total security
for final consumers
Increased requirements
on shelf life of the
products demand special
sterile processing during
the complete filling and
closing procedure. We
offer a variety of options
by presenting you our
family of fully aseptic
filling and closing
machines.
A sterile tunnel
guarantees a sterile area
covering the complete
filling section starting
with the cup station
(including a part of the
magazine) until the final
closure of the cups
(heat-sealing closure,
snap-on-lids, etc.). The
specialty of the fully
aseptic HAMBA filling
and closing machines is
the extreme small sterile
area, supplied with
sterile air, covering the
space between container
openings and filling
stations only. Moreover,
it is not necessary to
place the fully aseptic
HAMBA filling and
closing machine in a
special clean room – a
normally air-conditioned
filling room is sufficient.
There is no influence on
the quality of the sterile
packaging of the
HAMBA machines.
The packaging material
is decontaminated by
means of H 2 O 2 and
guarantees, taking into
consideration the
strictest national and
international
regulations, the highest
security for your product
and for the final
consumer. You will
achieve the optimum
sterilisation and we
guarantee for the
ambient air and H 2 O 2 -
residuals in the filled
and closed cups and for
a filling free from recontamination
within
sterile area. An
integrated chain
cleaning and drying, a
permanent pocket slat
sterilization (the pocket
slats are cleaned and
sterilized before contact
with the sterile zone)
and the use of sterile air
traps in the entrance and
exit zones of the chain
prevent new
contamination. The
necessary sterile air is
produced within the
sterile air module by
means of sterile filters.
In addition, the
complete sterile air
tunnel system is cleaned
by acid and caustics
solutions, the drying is
done with hot sterile air.
A second sterilization is
done by means of hot
vaporized H 2 O 2 (35%),
after drying with sterile
air the system is cooled
down to production
temperature.
For the correct
processing of your
products, filled and
closed on our HAMBA
machines,
we guarantee the
highest security
concerning
decontamination and
sterilization.
For your employees, the
operation staff of the
HAMBA filling and
closing machine,
we guarantee highest
security for the complete
working zone.
For your customer, the
final consumer,
we guarantee highest
security of product
taking into consideration
all legal regulations.
