Industrial batter applicator for food coating
Ensuring consistent and high-quality batter coating on food products can be challenging, especially when looking to reduce waste and downtime. Traditional methods may lead to product damage and inconsistent coverage, affecting the final product’s quality.

Optimize batter application with precision and efficiency
The GEA OptiDipper is a state-of-the-art batter applicator designed for ensuring complete and consistent coating of food products in tempura or other batters. The system uses an adjustable top conveyor that submerges the product, ensuring it is entirely coated. No product transfers occur inside the applicator, minimizing damage and maintaining product integrity. The integration of a frequency converter allows for precise control of the conveyor belt speed, while a hygienic blower and scraper remove excess batter, reducing waste. With up to 50% shorter cleaning times and reduced waste water, it ensures higher production uptime and improved tempura lifetime. Designed according to hygienic standard ISO 14159 and using food grade lubricants, this solution from GEA allows for extended production runs with minimal maintenance and downtime.
