What types of glazes can be used in this equipment?

Glazing tunnels are versatile and can handle various liquid glazes, including sugar solutions, chocolate, fondant, and savoury coatings, provided they have suitable viscosity.

Is this unit suitable for continuous production?

Yes, glazing tunnels are designed for integration into continuous production lines, offering consistent coating for high-volume output.

What maintenance is typically required?

Regular cleaning of the glazing system, conveyor belt, and collection trays is essential. Periodic checks of pumps, heaters, and electrical components are also recommended.

Can the glazing thickness be adjusted?

Typically, glazing thickness can be adjusted by controlling glaze viscosity, pump speed, and conveyor belt speed. Some units offer more precise control mechanisms.

What are the typical space requirements for a glazing tunnel?

The footprint varies significantly with capacity and belt width, but buyers should account for the tunnel length, access for maintenance, and integration with upstream/downstream equipment.
