Maltesers Production Line

Servo depositing system

At each position of the pumps,  depositing the material inside the trays with FULL TRAY depositing system.

Typically the pump on the first position is used to center of  “MALTESERS”. The pumps use valve bar ensuring identical delivery of mass to each piston and nozzle, as well as simplicity of operation and low repair costs. The complete pump body made by stainless steel 316. The valve bar running is effected by a conventional hydraulic cylinder, connected by connecting bar. The valve bar made by smithing albronze, more stronger.

The Depositor settings for deposited volume such as the length of the piston stroke as well as the timing of the valve bar are effected through adjusting on the touch screen parameter. The precise adjustment of the volume by motion controller.

Two important parts on the depositing pump, namely the Nozzle plate and the piston bar, are designed to deposit a specific product. Charge of product often makes it necessary to change these parts which because of their design can be changed within minutes. Depositing pump supplied on the machine should with one nozzle plate and one piston bar, Additional nozzle plates and pistons bars are offered separately below.Tray stacker

Construction is similar to the feeder. A group of up to 4 trays is accumulated in the stacker magazine. Stacker clamps carry the groups of trays in a smooth, continuous motion and form a complete stack on the pallet at the discharge side of the section.

The empty pallets are automatically delivered from the feeder to the stacker by the pallet underfeed conveyor, once the stack of tray is complete, the pallet is advanced to make room for the next stack. When two stacks are complete, the pallet is advanced further onto the roller track from which it is transported to the drying room by small cart.

Curing Room

The stack after depositing with products, then be sent into hot drying room(over 90℃) for baking the center to required form and taste. dring room is key point of processing for “Maltesers” center production. The system consists on rooms, machine, piping, automatic control and so on.

The budget of project will be given after design of workshop. Chocolate Belt Coating System

This machine is an advanced equipment for chocolate coating, especially for chocolate bean, melon, nuts, dry fruit, marshmallows and so on.  The machine is automatically controlled by PLC with touch screen, installed with system of recipe save and automatic weighing.  The flowrate of chocolate mass, the capacity of cold wind, the speed of mesh belt moving is adjustable.

Process time: 40-60min/batch, humidity of air should be 45-55% (The process time is based on the material of coating layer and products which need to coat, temperature of air and humidity inside of machine.).The weight of coated products is about 250kgs.Characteristic

1. Stainless steel structure for wash easily.

2. Full automatic and exact chocolate coating metering valve.

3. Jacket chocolate sprinkler system with tip cleaner to make sure the nozzles will not be blocked.

4. There are lights in the machine.

5. Convenient and detachable system for recovery of scrap material.

6. There are four legs with automatic weighing system(loadcell).The max.weighing is 250kgs.

7. There is a chocolate mass adjustment valve to control the flowrate of chocolate mass.

8. Power of main motor is 3KW. Most of parts including the frame, cover and the parts which contact with products(except plastic conveyor belt) are ss304.

9. Electric components are Siemens or Schneider brand. Control system is Delta brand(PLC).Chinese brand motor with gearbox. Pneumatic system is Airtac.

10. It should works with one 500L chocolate storage tank, one chocolate feeding pump(speed adjustable), chiller, polishing machine or pan,jacket pipes and hot water tank.
