TOFFEE SERVOMATIC LINE
Fully automatic processing line for the production of milk caramels, soft candies and chewy toffees.

This fully automated plant combines the most efficient cooking technology with a cooling and tempering capability that will satisfy all your needs of a consistently high quality toffee production, providing a perfectly homogenized product as for both temperature and texture.

WEIGHING AND COOKING Our latest, computer controlled CKT family of Continuous Cookers for Toffee combines the features of our Weighing and Dissolving machine with the plate heat exchanger cooking technology to meter, mix and cook the ingredients required for all kinds of toffees and caramels. After reaching the cooking temperature the product enters a specially designed flash-off and caramelizing chamber where product temperature, color and caramelization level are finely and automatically controlled. Colors, flavors, gelatine and other heat-sensitive ingredients can be safely incorporated after the flash-off stage.

COOLING According to the output required, one Cooling Drum from the RCT family is connected to the cooker to continuously receive and cool down the product to the temperature required for pulling. An electronic scale controls the process and triggers a batching device to cut the continuous flow of product into constant size batches that are automatically transferred to the pulling machines.

 

PULLING Batches are then individually pulled by means of one or more of our Pulling Machines TZ.60 (fully automatic) or TZ.40 (operator assisted), to reach the required density and texture. Adjustable working time and variable pulling speed allow a fine tuning of the process.

 

LAMINATION AND TEMPERING Pulled batches are turned into thick films by means of our Laminator LAM.200 and are then lifted to reach the Overhead Cooling Conveyors NR.9. Flowing on water-cooled, fan-areated conveyors the product starts its crystalization process while the temperature is reduced to the degree required by the forming lines.

FORMING LINES FEEDING At the end of the Overhead Cooling Conveyors the product, ready to be formed, is collected into a mobile hopper trolley LN.200 capable of serving automatically up to 12 batch rollers.
