Chocolate melter for large quantities

Efficiently melt and maintain the temperature of substantial chocolate quantities with precision control, ensuring perfect consistency for varied applications.

Melts and Maintains Temperature of Chocolate and Confectionery

The QUICK MELTER QM40 and QM25 from Prefamac Chocolate Machines are designed for efficiently melting and maintaining the temperature of chocolate, cocoa butter, and jams. These machines feature a robust heating grid system and a double-walled collector with an agitator, enabling them to melt up to 500 kg of chocolate per hour. Applications range across chocolate bars, truffles, coatings, and bakery products, making the QUICK MELTER essential for chocolate production and bakery industries. The systems integrate smoothly into high-speed, continuous operations with ergonomic designs to reduce manual strain, featuring adjustable melting grids, digital thermostats, and a central control panel for precise temperature settings. Constructed from pearled stainless steel, they offer corrosion resistance and long-lasting operation, with options for additional features like chocolate pumps and stainless steel piping for enhanced processing capabilities.
