P188 Four Hoppers Encrusting Machine for 3-Fillings Ball and Multi-Layer

Product Specification

Create Complex 3-Fillings Balls with Unmatched Precision.

The P188 Four Hoppers Encrusting Machine is engineered for advanced food production. It can simultaneously handle one outer dough and up to three different fillings, enabling the creation of multi-textured products like never before.

Key Benefits at a Glance:

•  4-Hopper Flexibility: Dedicated hoppers for the outer dough and three distinct fillings (e.g., paste, sauce, solid pieces).

•  Precision Encrusting: Advanced servo systems ensure each filling is perfectly centered with minimal waste.

• High-Output Production: Achieve outputs of 2,000 - 4,500 pieces per hour based on product complexity.

• Quick Changeover: Easily switch between product shapes and sizes with interchangeable molds and saved recipes.

• Hygienic Design: Full 304 Stainless Steel contact parts, easy to disassemble and clean.

Unlock a New Dimension of Product Innovation

Move beyond single-filling products. The P188 empowers you to create intricate "ball within a ball" type snacks that command a premium in the market. Imagine a protein ball with an outer layer, a fruit paste middle layer, and a solid nut core – all produced automatically.

How It Achieves Multi-Layer Encrusting:

1. Dough & Filling Supply: The four hoppers independently supply the outer dough and the three fillings. Each filling path is precisely controlled.

2. Sequential Injection: The machine's sophisticated nozzle head sequentially injects the fillings, layer by layer, while simultaneously forming the outer dough shell.

3. Forming & Cutting: The multi-layered product is then formed into a perfect sphere and cleanly cut.

4. Output: The finished balls are discharged onto a conveyor for the next stage (e.g., coating, cooling, packaging).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can it handle fillings with different viscosities, like a thick paste and a liquid sauce?
A: Yes. The P188 is specifically designed with independent filling systems and specialized pumps/nozzles to handle a wide range of viscosities, from solid nut pieces to fluid fruit sauces, simultaneously.

Q2: How does the machine ensure the fillings remain centered and don't mix?
A: Through precise servo motor control and a carefully designed injection sequence. The fillings are injected in a specific order and contained within the developing dough shell, preventing them from mixing before the outer layer is sealed.

Q3: Is it difficult to clean the multiple filling pathways?
A: The machine is designed for efficient cleaning. The filling lines, nozzles, and hoppers are designed for quick disassembly (often tool-free), allowing for thorough cleaning and sanitation between production runs.

Q4: Can we test the machine with our own recipes?
A: Absolutely! We highly recommend a free test run at our facility. You can send us your outer dough and filling samples, and we will produce samples for you and provide a video of the entire process.
