Rondo - 6/4 Head Piston Depositor

• Accurately filling pies, tarts, and quiches with various fillings.
• Depositing batters and doughs for cakes, muffins, and cookies.
• Portioning sauces, jams, and creams into containers or onto products.
• Filling ready meal trays with components like mashed potato or gravies.

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment commonly ranges from 2,000 to 6,000 deposits per hour, depending on product viscosity and deposit volume.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with a modest power draw.

Number of heads

This specific unit features 4 to 6 piston depositing heads, allowing for simultaneous multi-lane filling or higher throughput on a single lane.

Deposit volume range

Piston depositors typically offer adjustable deposit volumes, often ranging from 10ml to 1,000ml per piston, depending on the piston size installed.

Materials of construction

Contact parts are commonly made from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Footprint

For a 4-6 head unit, the footprint typically requires approximately 1.5m to 2.5m in length and 0.8m to 1.2m in width, excluding conveyors.

• What types of products are suitable for a piston depositor?

  Piston depositors are well-suited for viscous products such as batters, creams, sauces, jams, purees, and chunky fillings with small particulates. They offer excellent accuracy and portion control.

• Can the deposit volume be easily adjusted?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used unit?

• Is this unit suitable for integration into an existing production line?

• What is the typical lead time for spare parts for Rondo equipment?

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.
