Asset Overview
The Rheon KN550 Cornucopia Forming System is an automated food forming and portioning machine designed for continuous production of filled or shaped food products within a commercial manufacturing environment. The system is configured to portion and form dough-based or composite food products and is utilized in this application as a “cup drop” system for forming product bases used in pot pie production.
The machine integrates forming, portioning, and transfer functions into a single automated platform, supporting consistent product shape, weight control, and throughput. The KN550 is part of Rheon’s Cornucopia series, known for precision forming of filled and unfilled products across a wide range of food applications.

Functional Description
Raw product inputs such as dough and fillings are fed into the machine through dedicated hopper systems. The forming mechanism portions and shapes the product into a consistent configuration, which in this application is used to create product bases (“cup drop”) for downstream filling and assembly. Formed products are discharged onto a conveyor or transfer system for integration with topping, filling, and packaging operations. The system supports continuous production with high repeatability and portion control.
