Chips and Button Depositor
- The PTL chip and button depositor is used to manufacture chocolate or compound chips, wafers, buttons or drops, in a very precise and controlled manner on to a constantly moving belt. Can also deposit marshmallow or water based creams (fondants, etc.) in a very precise and controlled manner on to either constantly moving belts, moulds or starch trays.
- It has a very precise lift-table that can be adjusted during production for height, lift and drop speed. Adjustable suck-back for the elimination of tailing. Exact weight control on every nozzle.
- The machine eliminates jamming and lubrication by having the pistons mounted directly through the product into the hopper.
- Stainless pistons have no seals ensuring long life
- Pistons can be direct to each nozzle or multiple channels to numerous nozzles up to 24 nozzles per piston
- On-screen PLC control over product size, lift table. Belt speed and suck-back can all be adjusted whilst the equipment is running.
- Fast product changeovers. The unique PTL design enables customers to change from dark to white in approx 15 minutes
- Stainless steel construction
- Modular construction with depositors as well as full lines available
- With a ribbon change part the unit can be used to produce ribbons in various sizes that can then be broken into small pieces in a controlled manner using a PTL ribbon breaker device after cooling.
- Mesh deposit configuration insures optimal belt usage
