Rondo - Water Drop System

Applications & Use Cases

• Used for precise application of water or other liquids onto dough sheets or products in bakery operations.
• Often integrated into pastry lines for moistening surfaces before folding or further processing.
• Can be utilised in confectionery for controlled liquid dispensing onto sweets or bars.
• Applicable in some snack food production for surface treatment or flavour application.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput is typically dependent on the width of the conveyor system it integrates with, commonly handling continuous sheets up to 600-1200mm wide.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with a low power draw for controls and pump.

Footprint

The system itself is generally compact, designed to be integrated into an existing production line, often mounted above a conveyor.

Materials of construction

Components in contact with water are typically stainless steel or food-grade plastics to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Control system

Often features a basic control panel for adjusting flow rate and droplet size, sometimes integrated with the main line PLC.

Maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning of nozzles and liquid pathways is typically required, along with periodic inspection of pumps and seals.
