A compact high speed food depositor comprises a pump driven by a first servomotor
to feed food product through a multi-tube outlet to a stationary housing. A second
servomotor drives a rocking cut-off valve within the housing to feed food product
through three apertures in the housing. A computer with a touch screen controls
the servomotors and calculates the required weight deposit along with the speed
and placement of food product in the moving trays.
