Filling is loaded on the hopper, where a rod-breaker system pushes it towards a screw that feeds the lobes placed below. The lobes are pulled thanks to a gearmotor controlled with inverter which doses the product on the next machine in line.
In order to ease the washing process, the PRL presents different features. It has a stainless steel structure, a safety top grid hinged, a stainless steel hinged hopper, a rotating system with scraper to ensure product removal from the inside walls of the hopper, removable pushing screw, and helicoidal dosing lobes in detectable plastic, which resets the pulsation of doses of the pump. The frame is equipped with wheels to facilitate the movement of the machine.
The PRL can work with soft fillings with humidity going from 45% to 70%.

Smart, stylish, circular: polycotton recycling with Circ
Resource-efficient fashion has been a long-sought ambition amid the fashion industry’s considerable contributions to global carbon emissions. The need to close the loop by recycling textile fibers into virgin-like materials is higher than ever but seemed like a distant dream until now: Circ, GEA’s American customer and pioneer in the field of textile recycling, might be rewriting the future of the fashion industry.
New food tipping point
Alternative proteins are promising – yet still expensive to produce. The usual response is that scaling up will solve this issue. But what if the solution was really about getting better, not just bigger? From more efficient, high-yield processes to upcycling waste heat, engineers are reshaping how we grow food.
