Typical capacity

Throughput for a 4-lane system commonly ranges from several thousand to tens of thousands of units per hour, depending on product size and cycle speed.

Power supply

Units of this class typically require a 3-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with appropriate amperage.

Footprint

A complete line, including depositor, transfer pump, and indexing conveyor, will require a significant linear floor space, typically several metres in length.

Depositor type

This unit features a 6-head depositor, which is common for multi-lane systems to ensure even and consistent filling.

Buyers typically value chocolate and sweet processing machines that maintain temperature control and consistency. Common considerations include mechanical condition, ease of cleaning, and availability of replacement parts. Used chocolate tempering machines, enrobing equipment, and sweet depositors are generally regarded as reliable investments when sourced from well-maintained facilities. Industry sentiment suggests focusing on machines with documented service histories and straightforward operation, as these tend to integrate well into existing production lines.
