Flat lollipop forming and wrapping system
Enhance your candy production with precision-engineered lollipop forming and wrapping, designed for intricate shapes and high-speed output to meet diverse confectionery demands.
Forms and Wraps Diverse Lollipop Shapes
The GEA Aquarius FlatFormWrap series, including the FlatFormWrap SC and HC, provides lollipop manufacturers with a comprehensive solution for forming and wrapping flat, fancy, and 3D lollipops. This equipment stands out for its efficient multi-stage process that forms, cools, and wraps lollipops in one continuous operation, achieving up to 1,000 units per minute, depending on the model. Applications range from standard to custom designs, such as branded logo and cartoon character lollipops. With a hardened die set and enhanced pressing bridge (patent pending), the machine minimizes friction and reduces sugar stickiness. The pre-heating system ensures optimal film sealing temperatures, while an automatic reject system maintains quality by removing defects during startups and restarts. Designed for seamless integration, its user-friendly PLC system with a touch screen interface facilitates easy monitoring and control. The equipment is built with hygiene in mind, featuring easy-to-clean components and compliance with CE standards, along with reliable support from GEA’s dedicated service teams to ensure efficient operation and maintenance.
