PROCESSING DV 85-4
PROCESSING DV 85-4 Depositing System for Direct Dosing Into Trays and Thermo-Forming Packaging Photos: Handtmann Handtmann develops modular technology for petfood processing, from product preparation including mixing and grinding to processing technology for pumping, feeding, portioning, linking, forming, dosing and separating as well as product handling including weighing, feeding and depositing into packaging solutions. The core competency of dosing includes the DV 85-4 depositing system, boasting high flexibility that makes it ideal for use in artisan production as well as industrial performance levels. In combination with a vacuum filler, direct dosing is flexibly possible in trays and thermo-forming packaging, such as feeding two-lane, 2-1 formats into thermo-forming packaging machines and tray sealers. Thanks to the serial 2-lane dosing, a capacity of up to 100 portions per minute can be achieved, depending on the portion size. A wide variety of product variations is possible here from fluid to pasty or with chunky inserts. Hot fillings up to 90 degrees Celsius provide additional advantages for the production of wet and cooked petfood. Various outlet variants, round or star-shaped nozzles and a dosing nozzle with stamp and return suction further expand the scope for product and production. The adjustable ejection movement of the piston, (“double stroke” function) and the precise cutting of chunky products thanks to the patented “pulling cut” guarantee an excellent and appealing product presentation for all products. In addition, the precise feed system of the Handtmann vacuum filler ensures consistent weight accuracy. The dosing valve features the latest hygienic design and all materials are FDA-compliant. Made of high-quality stainless steel, the dosing valve is easy to clean and meets highest hygiene requirements.
