Ingredient Dispensing Units
Ingredient dispensing systems play a vital role in food and beverage batching by delivering measured amounts of salt, sugar, spices, powders, or micro-ingredients into mixers, blenders, or packaging lines. Consistency is key, both for product quality and regulatory compliance.
Dispense Precisely. Batch Consistently. Season with Control.
Helix Linear Technologies supplies miniature linear actuators, lead screws, and anti-backlash nuts that provide smooth, accurate control over hoppers, vibratory feeders, and auger systems. Our compact motion components allow for programmable dispensing cycles with fine resolution which is ideal for small-volume or high-precision applications.
Designed with easy integration in mind, Helix motion solutions help equipment builders create clean, reliable, and scalable ingredient delivery systems.
Key Benefits:
- High-precision actuation for metered ingredient flow and batching
- Compact designs ideal for tight spaces and micro-ingredient systems
- Corrosion-resistant materials for sanitary compliance
- Repeatable motion improves consistency across production batches
Helix delivers the motion control that turns ingredients into perfectly blended products one precise portion at a time.
