Hot Fill means that food is packed hot – minimum 85°C – and tight in bags. Then the bags are fast cooled down to 3 degrees. Products have longer shelf life and the cooking bags retain aroma and overall quality of the food offering a full taste experience. Food is warmed with or without bags in suitable way. Hot Fill is used for liquid or puree types of food.
Metos Hot Fill pumps ensure quick and precise dispensing of liquid food products. Soups, sauces and mashed potatoes are filled into bags and containers effortlessly. The built-in scale ensures that weighing of the product happens in one and the same workflow saving time in the kitchen. Changing the filling process from bags to containers only takes a few moments.
Metos Hot Fill pumps ensure uniform portions. Operating the machine is managed via a modern touch-screen display with a user-friendly interface and built-in programmes. The display also controls how quickly the product is to be dispensed allowing flexibility in the workflow.
Dispensing hot food products is normally associated with a number of health and safety risks. These risks are minimized with a fully automated dispensing system. Additionally the pumps prevent effectively inappropriate working positions.
There are three Hot Fill pump models; Hot Fill DOS 1, Hot Fill DOS 2 and Hot Fill DOS 3. Fully automatic DOS 3 controls make sure that the operator avoids any direct contact with the 90°C hot product. The automatic bag-packing unit seals the bags once they are filled. Furthermore the need for lifting products over long distances is reduced since the ready packaged dishes are transported from the filling station to the operator via a small conveyer belt.
