Cocoa pressing plant for high-capacity cocoa liquor processing
Optimize your cocoa processing by converting cocoa liquor into high-quality cocoa butter and cocoa cake efficiently, catering to the high demands of chocolate production.
Presses and Separates Cocoa Liquor into Butter and Cake
The Cocoa Pressing Plant HHP 14 from Petzholdt-Heidenauer is engineered to streamline high-capacity cocoa processing. This plant is equipped with advanced “Coriolis” Flowmeter Measurement Technology, ensuring consistent cocoa liquor press results. It features a programmable control system that tailors pressing conditions to specific cocoa mass qualities. Operating with capacities up to 2700 kg/h at varying residual butter contents, the HHP 14 is optimal for producing cocoa butter and cake with precision. Its integration in automated processing lines is simplified through high-performance “Radial-Piston” pumps and adaptable filling systems, allowing for seamless scalability. With a connected load of 38 kW and designed to occupy a space of 10800 x 6000 mm, it supports efficient energy utilization while handling intensive production demands. Enhanced monitoring capabilities, such as scale-based butter weight control and electronic ram positioning, ensure reliable performance for chocolate manufacturers and cocoa producers.
