Baker Perkins - Bakers Piston Depositor To Fit Over Conveyor

• Precisely depositing batters, creams, and fillings onto biscuits, cakes, and pastries on a production line.
• Accurately filling pies, tarts, and quiches with various viscous ingredients.
• Depositing sauces, purees, or spreads onto ready meals or other food products.
• Portioning doughs or mixes for consistent product sizing in baking operations.

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from hundreds to several thousand deposits per hour, depending on product viscosity and deposit volume.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with pneumatic air for operation.

Deposit volume range

Piston depositors commonly offer adjustable deposit volumes, typically from a few millilitres up to several hundred millilitres per shot.

Hopper capacity

Integrated hoppers for this type of depositor can typically range from 20 to 100 litres, depending on the model and intended application.

Construction material

Food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) is typically used for all product contact parts to ensure hygiene and durability.

Integration

Designed to fit over existing conveyor systems, requiring careful consideration of conveyor height and width for seamless integration.

• What products are suitable for a piston depositor?

  Piston depositors are best suited for viscous, semi-liquid, or particulate-laden products such as batters, jams, creams, sauces, and chunky fillings. They provide accurate volumetric dosing.

• Can this unit handle different product viscosities?

• Is this depositor easy to clean?

• What spare parts are commonly needed for a used piston depositor?

• How is the deposit volume adjusted?

Food depositors are valued for their precision, consistency and reliability in portioning applications across bakery, confectionery and prepared foods sectors. Buyers typically prioritise machines with minimal wear, clear maintenance histories and compatible control systems. Key strengths include durability when properly serviced, adaptability to various product viscosities, and straightforward operation. When purchasing used equipment, inspecting nozzles, pumps and pneumatic components is essential, as wear directly affects deposit accuracy. Machines from reputable manufacturers with documented service records generally command buyer confidence and deliver strong long-term value.
