Butter hotpot base line with particulate consistency

Regional Sichuan hotpot-seasoning producerChina · EU export programmeDemonstration case

A GTX-1800 configuration with jacketed agitated hopper replaced manual weighing for butter-based hotpot base, keeping chili flakes and spice particles evenly dosed into jars destined for European retailers.

Background

The producer ran a labour-intensive manual filling process where butter solids separated during cooling, causing jar-to-jar particulate variance and rejected export batches.

GrounTon solution

  • GTX-1800 with jacketed, agitated hopper to hold the butter matrix at process temperature
  • Wide-passage particulate valve to preserve chili and spice inclusions
  • Servo recipe presets per SKU to standardise dosing across two jar sizes
  • Integrated capping and documentation pack to support the EU export review

Outcome

  • Jar-to-jar particulate distribution visibly stabilised versus manual filling
  • Changeover between two jar sizes handled without tooling replacement
  • All production parameters remain subject to the customer’s internal validation; no throughput figures are claimed in this demo

This case is part of a high-fidelity prototype. Client names and regions are demonstration content, and quantitative outcomes are intentionally withheld until validated by the end customer.
