Abstract

A container-filling system includes a product-dispenser system and a control system. The product-dispenser system includes a conveyor defining a predetermined path, a container loader, and a container filler. The predetermined path has a sensing station, a loading station, and a filling station. The control system determines if a container is present at the sensing station. The cup loader provides a container at the loading station. The cup filler dispenses a product into the container at the filling station.
