Chocolate chip depositor for small scale production

Achieve precise chocolate chip production with consistent size and weight control, ideal for confectionery makers seeking reliable, high-speed depositing solutions to streamline their production process.

Deposits and Precisely Shapes Chocolate and Confectionery

The Chocolate Drop Line Depositor from AMP-Rose is engineered for seamless integration into high-speed confectionery production environments. This depositor leverages a twin rotary valve with a horizontal piston design to deliver precise depositing of chocolate chips and confectionery drops, essential for consistent product formation.

Equipped with twin jacketed hoppers and stainless steel construction, it ensures durability and optimal thermal conditions. Its inline planetary gearbox and servo motor enable precise control over depositing speeds and strokes, with the capability to produce up to 250 kg/hr.

Applications range from chocolate chips to mini morsels, ideal for chocolate manufacturers and confectionery producers seeking to enhance their output. The equipment incorporates automation through an Allen-Bradley PanelView system, allowing process adjustments and quick changeovers via a touch interface.

This depositor minimizes energy consumption with its efficient design, supporting continuous operation and integrating smoothly with existing production lines. Maintenance is streamlined with easy access to piston assemblies for cleaning, ensuring maximum uptime and hygiene. With robust construction and heavy-duty materials, the Chocolate Drop Line Depositor offers reliability and efficiency, enhancing your confectionery processing capabilities.
