Applications

The DrakeLoader LS-1800 is a compact workhorse that moves food products like frankfurters, snack sticks, pickles, cheese sticks, & more at high speeds from the ovens to the packager. It can handle more product size variations and even softer products than our flagship CS-1800. Our expert engineers work with your floor space, product specs, & packager to enable flexible film and box loading in your factory. Versatile modular heads offer quick changeover time for different packaging applications.

Food Safety

The DrakeLoader LS-1800’s compact footprint and design allow it to be quickly stripped for cleaning in smaller spaces and it uses sanitary food belts that are easily removed during the cleaning process. With modern upgrades like vision, powerful integrations, new cleaning guards, sanitation, and Sani-chain options available, this is stainless steel equipment you can rely on to help lower your costs, reduce labor needs, and meet your product demand for decades to come.

Integrations

All Drake autoloaders feature easy-to-learn Rockwell touchscreen controls, allowing for easy addition of new recipes and rapid adjustment to various areas of the loader. Combined with Drake’s legendary customer service, parts turnaround, terms & conditions, and available upgrades & mods, you’re assured of an efficient, long-lasting loader that helps you automate your food production lines.
