Chocolate pump for consistent mass transport

Efficiently transport chocolate mass with precision, ensuring gentle handling and consistent flow in your production line for high-quality end products, from pralines to aerated creations.

Transports and Handles Chocolate Mass and Inclusions

The CP and CPI pumps from Aasted are versatile solutions designed for the precise transport of chocolate and confectionery masses in both vertical and horizontal orientations. The CP pump’s slow-rotating gear mechanism ensures gentle movement, ideal for maintaining the integrity of delicate ingredients. Meanwhile, the CPI pump’s wing design allows it to manage complex chocolate mixtures with inclusions efficiently. These pumps are engineered to handle chocolate and confectionery varieties like truffles, pralines, and filled chocolates, supporting production capacities that accommodate both small-scale artisanal operations and large-scale commercial manufacturers. With a focus on easy integration, the pumps connect seamlessly into existing lines, enhancing automation with their straightforward PLC compatibility. Their robust design utilizes stainless steel construction for optimal hygiene and corrosion resistance, aligning with industry standards for food safety. Additionally, Aasted provides comprehensive engineering support, allowing customization to meet specific production needs, ensuring that each unit operates at peak efficiency, reduces operational downtime, and simplifies cleaning and maintenance tasks.
