Sauce Applicator

Grote's Sauce Applicator is ideal for accurately dispensing sauce patterns onto moving targets at high production rates.

The cantilevered design allows it to be easily rolled over an existing conveyor system, and it can deposit sauces with a wide range of viscosities. Even sauces with solid ingredients can be easily dispensed, with a unique and patented design that utilizes mini rods and shear plates to prevent dispensing heads from clogging.

Dispensing head plates can be designed for custom patterns that meet virtually any pattern requirement. The dispensing heads are easily exchanged within a matter of minutes for quick change-over to different dosing patterns. The heads are sanitary in design, modular in construction, and easy to dissassemble and clean with no tools required.

The Sauce Applicator enables high precision, simultaneous dosing onto operations of up to 6 lanes. Each dispensing head is independently controlled by a separate servo-pump motor, which provides for extremely accurate fluid metering on each dose. The dispensing heads are movable for universal adaptability to any lane centers, and can be easily configured for multi-head dosing per lane in order to increase throughput. The motorized dispensing heads can be adjusted in height up to 8" above the target in order to accurately deposit onto both flat and raised edge crusts. All moving parts are either self lubricating or lubricated for life, making it easy to operate and maintain. Special cleaning carts are available to assist in transporting and cleaning the dispensing heads.
