Chocolate tempering system

Optimize your chocolate production with a tempering system that achieves precise crystallization, reduces energy consumption by 30%, and enhances throughput by up to 40% with its advanced cooling and shearing processes.

Tempers and Cools Chocolate Efficiently

The StellaNova® Chocolate Tempering Machine by Aasted revolutionizes the tempering process with its unique capability to separate cooling and shearing stages. It achieves up to a 40% reduction in cooling time, enhancing production line output while cutting energy consumption by 30% via an innovative planet wheel design that multiplies shear without additional heat. Built entirely from stainless steel, StellaNova ensures high purity and safety standards for chocolate, confectionery, and bakery applications. It’s suitable for producing a wide range of chocolate products, including milk and dark chocolate bars, truffles, and filled chocolates. Its compact design holds 75% less mass than traditional tempering machines, offering efficient power usage with a smaller motor and eliminating the need for reheating. The machine supports continuous, high-speed operations, seamlessly integrating into your production line while offering a user-friendly interface for precise control over exit temperatures and temper indices. StellaNova’s patented software simplifies adjustments, ensuring ease of operation and superior product quality, making it an invaluable tool for food processing companies aiming to optimize their production capabilities.
