The technology is based on the synchronized discharge of the chocolate mass and the filling in one cavity of the mold, in only one shot, covering the exterior part of the praline with chocolate and the central part with the filling.
It has two jacketed hoppers in one dispenser: one for chocolate and the other for filling.
It can also produce solid pralines, dosing chocolate through both nozzles.
This molding machine can be designed for dosing a whole line in every mold or dosing the complete mold at once.
Product:
This equipment is suitable for almost every filled product, especially truffles, ganash, pralines and creams. The filling product must have similar fusion temperature and viscosity compared to chocolate.
We recommend contacting us for studying your case and the feasibility to automatize its production with this method or find an adequate solution.
Capacities
Approximated production capacity of 50 kg/hr. A molding machine with a higher capacity can be designed if two dispensers are installed, one after the other.
