Bottom coating system for confectionery production
Optimize your confectionery line with precision bottom coating, ensuring consistent chocolate layers that enhance texture and flavor, ideal for crafting a variety of chocolate-coated products with customizable thickness.

Performs Bottom Coating and Pre-Dipping
The BM 6 / BT 6 from Sollich is designed to revolutionize your confectionery production with precise bottom coating and pre-dipping of products such as biscuits, bars, praline centers, and more. What sets this equipment apart is its patented bottoming device with counter-rotating rollers that ensure consistent coating thickness. It employs advanced temperature control for optimal coating quality and integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, offering options for external or built-in temperature systems. The machine caters to high-speed operations and is easy to operate with minimal manual intervention.
Designed for continuous use, the BM 6 / BT 6 achieves high throughput while maintaining quality, thanks to features like an adjustable licking roller for uniform texture and a hold-down roller for controlled half-coating. Its construction offers easy cleaning and maintenance, adhering to high hygienic standards. Available in working widths from 620 to 1300 mm, it can be customized to meet specific production needs, with options for materials that ensure corrosion resistance and durability. The inclusion of a biscuit turning device enables innovative product handling, enhancing flexibility and efficiency in confectionery processing.
