Batch weighing system for precise ingredient metering
In the production of confectioneries like hard candy, fondant, and chewy candy, achieving precise ingredient metering and efficient dissolving processes is crucial. Traditional methods often result in high energy consumption and excessive use of potable water which can be inefficient and costly.
Reduce energy and water usage in candy production
The ECOGRAV® by CHOCOTECH is a batch weighing system designed to precisely meter and mix raw ingredients while incorporating a continuous pressure dissolver. This system utilizes the inherent moisture in glucose (corn syrup) to dissolve sugar, drastically reducing the need for additional potable water. As a result, it achieves over 50% steam savings on hard candy recipes and 70% on fondant, chewy candy, and certain sugar solutions for bar manufacturing. This innovation not only conserves energy but also minimizes water usage. Available in multiple versions with throughputs ranging from 1100 kg/h to 4400 kg/h at 90% dry substance, the system ensures high-capacity processing with substantial energy savings.
