Unifiller - Universal 1000 Depositor with Heated Hopper

• Accurately depositing batters, fillings, and sauces in bakeries and patisseries.
• Portioning prepared meals and side dishes in catering and food service operations.
• Filling containers with viscous products in small to medium-scale food production.
• Depositing fruit fillings or creams into tarts and pies.
• Applying decorative finishes or glazes to confectionery items.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, hoppers commonly range from 10 to 40 litres, with this unit featuring a 25-litre hopper.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on a standard single-phase electrical supply, often 230V, for the heated hopper and controls, with pneumatic power for depositing.

Product cylinder size

A 2.5-inch product cylinder, as specified, is common for handling a range of product viscosities and portion sizes.

Throughput

Throughput for depositors of this type is highly variable depending on product viscosity and portion size, but can typically achieve 20-100 deposits per minute.

Footprint

Depositors with a rise and fall mast and a 25-litre hopper typically require a floor space of approximately 0.5m x 0.7m, plus operator access.

Material construction

Food-grade stainless steel is commonly used for all product contact parts to ensure hygiene and durability.

• What is meant by 'rise and fall mast'?

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.
