High-precision depositing system for fluid and viscous fillings
Achieve precise and efficient dosing for diverse food products with a valve-free system that guarantees exact portion control, ensuring consistency and quality in every production cycle.

Deposits and Portions Diverse Food Products
The DS 552 Depositing System from Handtmann Maschinenfabrik is a valve-free solution tailored for precision dosing and portioning across multiple food industry sectors. This system stands out for its valve-free operation, ensuring gram-accurate product distribution without pressure fluctuations, which is essential in maintaining the quality and appearance of end-products. Ideal for a range spanning liquid to chunky mixtures, the DS 552 is commonly integrated within bakery, dairy, meat, and pet food production lines.
Capable of adjusting portion sizes from 5 to 500 grams, it operates seamlessly in continuous processes on up to 24 lanes, achieving up to 200 cycles per minute. This not only enhances operational throughput but also minimizes product giveaway through precise portion control. Designed with an intuitive modular configuration, the DS 552 supports quick changeovers and eases cleaning routines, promoting hygiene and reducing downtime.
Featuring a servo-driven flow divider, the system maintains consistent output across all lanes, facilitating integration into existing thermo-forming and tray sealing systems. This makes it an efficient and economical choice for manufacturers prioritizing flexibility and high performance in their dosing operations. With easy access design and customizable options, the DS 552 adapts to diverse production needs, supported by comprehensive engineering and customer service from Handtmann.
