Technologies for every kind of dry and wet topping
GEA topping depositors can complete the final product with salty or sweet ingredients before and after baking. From muffins and cupcakes to all kinds of pizzas: GEA’s technology allows to add a custom touch to them, improving their texture and flavor.
Model DAP
Wet topping depositorThe versatile DAP depositor from GEA is designed for topping American- or Italian-style pizzas with diced ingredients such as cheese, ham or vegetables. It is also ideal for depositing toppings, from raspberries to streusel, on cakes.
The DAP model depositor is usually fitted to the processing line after the tomato depositing system, to add further ingredients to the pizza. The unit comprises a C-shaped frame on which a belt is mounted and where the product is loaded. Motorized finger devices sprinkle a uniform layer of topping ingredients over the pizza bases. Topping distribution can either be made over the whole of the base by waterfall deposition, or a movable mask can be fitted so that ingredients are added to just the centre of the pizza, leaving the edge uncovered, as in Italian-style pizzas.
Ideally suited to high capacity production, the DAP unit can be fitted with product-loading and recovery conveyors that reduce the need for operator intervention.

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
