- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, throughput can range from several hundred kilograms to over a tonne per hour, depending on product size and complexity.
- Power supply
- Commonly requires a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage requirements based on motor size.
- Footprint
- Units of this type typically have a substantial footprint, often several metres in length, to accommodate the moulding belt and associated mechanisms.
- Construction material
- Predominantly constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability in food processing environments.
- Moulding drum width
- The effective moulding width for this type of unit is commonly around 600-800mm, dictating the maximum product width.
- Maintenance requirements
- Regular cleaning of the moulding drum and belt, lubrication of moving parts, and periodic inspection of electrical and mechanical components are typically required.
- Product thickness range
- Typically capable of producing products from a few millimetres up to approximately 15-20mm thick, adjustable via roller settings.
