DONUT ROBOT SYSTEMS
Mini donuts are a growing trend. Donut makers can produce consistent
mini donuts with a Donut Robot® Mark II GP model from
Belshaw. Donuts are conveyed quickly and smoothly through
the fryer and gently dispensed into the Roto-Cooler with minimal
operator interaction.
Standing over a kettle fryer not for you? While the Donut Robot®
works, you can do other jobs.
Belshaw's Donut Robot® machines allow a single person to
produce more donuts, and better-quality donuts than standard
frying. Each donut is given the same frying time and is turned
over at the same moment, absorbing less fat.
Donut Robot® systems allow a single person to produce a
greater number of consistent donuts, while allowing the operator
time for other tasks such as finishing (mixing, icing, sprinkling,
glazing, sugaring, etc.) and even packaging and selling.
Cake donut (rings, mini rings, balls/holes) production requires
only a mixer and hopper bowl/depositor, while yeast raised donut
(rings, shells, bars) production requires a proofer and feed
table to manage the rolled and cut products prior to frying.
With systems available from capacities of 30 dozen (360 pieces)
per hour up to 151 dozen (1,812 mini rings) per hour, the Donut Robot®
is a clear solution and friend to many donut makers worldwide.
DIGITALLY CONTROLLED
Unifiller Systems, a Coperion Food
Health and Nutrition company and
a global leader in portioning equipment,
announces rhe CMD Series
Depositors, digitally controlled pneumatic
depositors.
The CMD Series Depositors are
dial-less depositors offering advanced
features such as pre-charge, splash
reduction, deposit pressure and other
" servo-like " features above and beyond
a standard pneumatic depositor. The
CMD Series depositors are precision
controlled by Unifiller's exclusive
CMD+ program preloaded and provided
on a tablet smart device with

each CMD depositor. Compared to the
standard depositors, the CMD Series
can handle more complex applications
such as ones that require smaller accurate
deposits or more precise spray
mode or splash control.
Sonia Bal, director of global marketing,
explains the CMD Series
Depositors blend the power and ease
of pneumatic machines with digital
" servo " precision at a fraction of the
cost of a servo depositor. Using a
tablet connected through bluetooth,
customers can control various aspects
of their pneumatic depositor and save
and recall recipes.
" Customers will love the 'servo-like'
features without the servo - making
replacement and maintenance not
only easy, but cost efficient. Ideal for
small bagging, sauces, sandwiches or
ready meals lines, the CMD depositor
is ideal for food and bakery manufacturers, "
Bal says.
The CMD Series Depositors are
built for ease of use and cleaning. No
special training is required to operate
the machines, and instructions are
provided via video and manuals. The
CMD series meets IP69 protocols, all
electrical components are enclosed in
a wash-down case.
