Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For this class of single-head depositor, throughput can typically range from 10 to 40 deposits per minute, depending on product viscosity and deposit volume.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a standard industrial electrical supply, typically 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase, often with pneumatic requirements.

Deposit volume range

A single-head depositor like the Series 1000 typically offers a wide deposit volume range, often adjustable from a few millilitres up to several hundred millilitres per shot.

Footprint

Low-level single-head depositors are generally compact, requiring a relatively small floor area, suitable for integration into existing lines or standalone operation.

Materials of construction

Product contact parts are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability.

Head type

The 'rise and fall head' feature commonly found on units of this type allows for clean depositing directly into containers and prevents stringing.
