The R 900 was designed for the portion packing of drinking water, and it produces up to 160 beakers per minute. Issuing ready-filled beakers speeds up the work of cabin personnel for example in an aircraft, and is also said to reduce the amount of empty packaging.
So that passengers can open their drinks easily, the portion beakers are equipped with a thermoformed easy-open corner, which enables the upper web to be gripped easily and then readily pulled off.
In addition to the packing of liquids, this new thermoforming packaging machine from Multivac is equally suited to packing products with a paste-like consistency, such as for example yogurt in portion pots.
