Flour and crumb feeders for breading and pre-dusting processes
Optimize your breading and pre-dusting operations with advanced feeders designed to streamline ingredient handling, ensuring ergonomic efficiency and seamless integration into your production line.

Feeds and Transfers Ingredients for Coating Processes
The alco Flour / Crumb Feeder APZ from Alco Food-Machines streamlines ingredient feeding for food processors by automating the transfer of breadcrumbs, flours, sugars, and spices. This machine addresses manual handling challenges with its ergonomic design, allowing operators to discharge 25 kg sacks into a hopper at a convenient height of 950 mm. The system employs a dual feed screw mechanism to ensure a consistent and precise flow of ingredients into coating machinery, making it suitable for production lines handling products like breaded chicken nuggets, fish sticks, and spice blends.
Ideal for high-speed, continuous operations in the food, poultry, and meat industries, the feeder integrates seamlessly into pre-processing and processing departments. With high-quality stainless-steel drives, it guarantees durability and reliability under rigorous conditions. The alco Flour / Crumb Feeder APZ promotes efficient material handling, accommodating a range of powders and granules while supporting automation and integration within existing production systems. With hygiene and safety in mind, it meets the rigorous standards of food industry operations.
