Optional Features

The NID Universal Depositor can be fitted with an optional PLC controlled Centre-in-Shell facility. This consists of a special pump with a pneumatically operated valve bar, a nozzle plate with concentric depositing nozzles, and an auxiliary hopper allowing the different centre and shell materials to be fed from separate main and auxiliary hoppers. The latest version of the NID Universal Depositor enables this special product to be made by both small and large manufacturers. The main and auxiliary hopper arrangement, with its side-by-side pump, allows the NID Universal Depositor to make four colour (or sometimes even more) simultaneous deposits, and also to produce two-colour side-by-side deposits.
