Turbo Systems Ltd - Used Turbo Systems Ltd 2012 Depositor

• Accurately depositing batters, creams, and fruit fillings into bakery products.
• Filling pies, tarts, and cakes with precise portions of various ingredients.
• Depositing sauces, purees, or viscous liquids in food processing lines.
• Portioning ready meals or desserts in a consistent and hygienic manner.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can range from several hundred to several thousand deposits per hour, depending on product viscosity and portion size.

Power supply

Commonly, units of this type operate on a standard industrial 3-phase supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz) with a typical power consumption of 1-3 kW.

Deposit volume range

Typically, depositors offer a broad range of adjustable deposit volumes, often from a few millilitres up to several litres per cycle.

Materials of construction

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

Footprint

A typical compact depositor might require a floor space of approximately 1m x 1m, though larger or integrated systems will naturally require more.

Control system

Units commonly feature PLC control with a HMI for setting parameters such as speed, volume, and cycle timing.

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.
