The STA Topping Applicator from FME Food Machinery Engineering is a versatile, high-performance solution for industrial bakeries seeking precision and efficiency in applying a range of dry toppings. This innovative machine is designed to handle a variety of applications, including waterfall, pulse, and targeted modes, with precise control using servo-driven technology and customizable recipes. Available in widths from 12” to 60”, the STA is offered in three standard models: a cantilever frame model with adjustable height, a model that mounts directly to existing conveyors, and a third option combining the cantilever frame with an integrated conveyor.

For greater precision, we offer a custom chute that enables targeted topping down to areas as small as one inch in diameter, maintaining consistent weight delivery. This precise targeting saves bakeries significantly in product costs by reducing topping waste and minimizing the need for recycling efforts. The STA’s quick-change roller system also allows fast, seamless transitions between topping types, from shredded coconut and sprinkles to delicate items like freeze-dried raspberry kernels. With a flip-back hopper for effortless cleaning, easy mounting options, and adaptability for fine sugars, crushed peppermint, and streusels, the STA Topping Applicator delivers consistent, reliable performance. This versatility and efficiency make the STA a top choice for industrial bakeries focused on quality, adaptability, and cost savings.

Perfect for a range of toppings, including:

• Confectionery items (sprinkles, confetti flakes, chocolate chips)
• Specialty ingredients (crushed peppermint, candied pecans, streusels, oatmeal)
• Fine powders with roller change (flour, cornstarch, fine sugars)

The STA Topping Applicator is engineered to meet the high demands of industrial bakeries with its robust versatility, making it a standout choice for innovative and reliable topping solutions while promoting efficiency and reducing waste.
