Butter Packaging Machine

Butter production demands precision, delicate texture, high-fat content, and sensitivity to temperature make manual handling inefficient and inconsistent. Your packaging line needs equipment that maintains product shape, weight accuracy, and hygienic seals while supporting high-speed production.

 

The Hefestus butter packaging machine relies on the FFS (Forming, Filling, and Sealing) system to automate each stage, ensuring smooth operation, reducing labor costs, and delivering consistent, market-ready butter portions every time.

Your Challenges, Solved

Challenge: Soft or Hard Butter Is Difficult to Portion Accurately

Solution:
The system handles different butter consistencies, delivering precise blocks, sticks, or tubs without deformation. Accurate dosing ensures each unit meets weight and presentation standards.

Challenge: Manual Packaging Slows Production

Solution:
The butter packaging machine combines forming, filling, and sealing into one continuous workflow, increasing throughput and minimizing operator dependency.

Shelf Life & Contamination Risk Must Be Controlled

Solution:
Optional vacuum and MAP sealing preserve freshness, maintain flavor, and prevent microbial growth. Controlled sealing protects the product from oxidation and spoilage.

Challenge: You Need Packaging Versatility Without Reconfiguring Lines

Solution:
Supports paper-wrapped sticks, tubs, and foil-wrapped blocks. Flexible tooling allows rapid adjustments for portion size or packaging type to meet retail or foodservice requirements.
