PRP - Paddle pump
Machine designed to dose creamy fillings with a paddle pump.
The filling is loaded on the hopper, where a rod-breaker system pushes the filling towards a screw which 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 machine 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, paddle in plastic material, and cam for paddle movement in stainless steel.
The frame is equipped with wheels to facilitate the movement of the machine.
The PRP can work with creamy fillings with chunks up to 15mm in size and with humidity going from 60% to 95%.
Machine performance
- Production capacity: 100-600 kg/h.
