This term is used in packaging process of food. The food is being transferred through a conveyor belt. The previous steps in the process prior to "lipjes omleggen" is as follows:

- putting their lids (or covers)
what are these lips? can it be a joint part of sealed package?
Warmest regards and heartily thanks to those that will have a say for these words??

Dear Margreet,

Based on the whole document and your suggestions, I can say yours was quite near to what I was looking for. Yet, I found it more appropriate to leave the word as is (with a suggestion Lip seal station). This answer of mine was also fortified by the suggestion of Ken with his interpretation of the word "kill" as quenching.
Thank you very much for your efforts to assist me with this "new to appear" word.

Asker: Dear Eva, Unfortunately, I don't know not so much about this system, I have only hoped that someone else might know. Because the text I am currently translating seems to be a translated document (DE > NL), I may ask my client some extra information.
