The present invention provides a method of assembling a filter element with a cup-shaped capsule body using a combined weld-head and former that both forms and connects the filter element to the capsule body in one manufacturing process without tearing the filter, to save manufacturing time and reduce the required tooling sets and thereby improve manufacturing efficiency. The method comprising the steps of positioning the filter element (8) at or near a mouth of the cup-shaped capsule body (2), moving the combined weld-head (70) and former (80) so as to contact and drive the filter element (8) into the cup-shaped capsule body (2), wherein, the filter element (8) is deformed by a sprung- loaded former (80) of the combined weld-head (70) and former (80) to form a cup-shaped filter element (56), and using a weld-head (70) of the combined weld-head (70) and former (80) to bond the cup-shaped filter element (56) to the cup-shaped capsule body (2). The present invention further provides a method of making a beverage capsule and a beverage capsule produced using this method. |
