• Accurately portioning viscous food products onto production lines.
• Filling pies, tarts, and pastries with consistent volumes of product.
• Applying decorative toppings or glazes to confectionery items.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product viscosity and nozzle configuration, but commonly ranges from 20 to 60 deposits per minute for this class of equipment.

Power supply

Typically 3-phase industrial power, often 400V, 50Hz, commonly found on units of this type.

Footprint

A drive unit alone is relatively compact, but overall line footprint depends on integration with conveyors and hoppers.

Material compatibility

Designed for food-grade materials, typically stainless steel in contact parts for hygiene and durability.

Product viscosity range

Suitable for a wide range of viscous and semi-liquid products, from thin batters to thick pastes.

Maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning and inspection of gear mechanisms and seals are typically required for optimal performance.
