DR3 - Delta Robot

Steck Depositors Limited was the first to sell, commission and install the first portable, hygienic food processing robot into the sandwich industry in the UK, the DR2. This was in June 2019 and had not been done in the food processing industry before.

"IT REALLY IS THE NEXT BEST THING FOR SLICED BREAD!"

A number of the world's biggest manufacturers were quick to pick up on this Steck-designed game-changer and commission the installation of the DR2 in their factories. In the first six months of production machines manufactured. Steck are delighted to announce they have sold a combined 61 DR2's starching robots, DR3's match half and wet lidding robots, within the first year of production. Looking ahead to 2021, With current sales and indicators the outlook certainly deos not bleak as with the current climate due to COVID-19, there is some good news to report at last!

Steck continues to lead the way on further industry solutions. We have found new ways to apply sauce to pizzas and ensure the base is covered, rather than simply printing or central depositing and hand applying. Then there is the technique for applying sauce over spare ribs for ready meals, rather than having an operator do this by hand. In both instances the operator is taken out of the equation, so labour time is saved, something customers have told us they are always looking to achieve. Moreover, they heavily reduce the possibility of repetitive strain injury claims, given the inability of the robot not to complain about its aching hands (or catch Covid-19 for that matter)!

Steck's DR robots, which are a sandwich industry first, are already proving their worth in production. Customers are seeing the benefits. Our long standing record of innovation, our expertise and experience, our customer-first values, and, crucially, our unwavering commitment to high standards of safety, are why customers continue to choose us.
