Food depositor FAQs
What are the benefits of your food depositors?
Our depositors are designed to reduce waste, improve consistency and streamline your production line, leading to better product quality and cost-savings over time.
Do you offer custom food depositors?
Yes, most of our systems are built to spec. We tailor every machine to your product, portion size, output speed and line configuration, so it perfectly fits your production.
How quickly can your equipment deposit food products?
That depends on the make and model, but our systems can deliver up to 120 deposits per minute. We match speed to your line requirements, without sacrificing control. Here’s what you can expect:
- API-50 Series: ±0.1 gram accuracy
- API-200, API-400 & API-800 Series: ±1 gram accuracy (product dependent)
How accurate are your food portioning machines?
Exceptionally. Our volumetric systems deliver precise, repeatable portions. Deposit ranges between 50 grams and 850 grams per cycle with accuracy expectations of +/- 1 grams with most products. Our most accurate model can deliver accuracy of +/- 0.1 grams, making it by far the most accurate depositor available.
What kinds of products are suitable for food depositors?
Our machines have successfully deposited a wide range of food products, including chocolate and caramel sauces, jams, chutneys, sandwich fillings, pastes, batters and creams. While we specialise in the bakery and ready meal sectors, our equipment is used across a wide range of food production environments, delivering performance, hygiene, and efficiency across the board.
