Industrial sugar melter
Efficiently melt and mix sugar with precision using a gas-fired batch cooker designed for optimal heat distribution, ensuring consistent quality in confectionery production.
Melts and Mixes Sugar for Confectionery Production
The Sugar Melter RK 50 from CHOCOTECH GmbH is a robust gas-fired batch cooker engineered specifically for the confectionery industry, offering precise sugar melting and mixing capabilities. This equipment features dual counter-rotating agitators that enhance mixing efficiency, ensuring uniform consistency in sugar bases. Designed to melt a range of confections, from caramel sauces to chocolate coatings and jelly beans, the RK 50 efficiently processes up to 20 kg per batch, delivering up to three batches per hour under manual operation. Its motor-driven agitators are designed to tilt and move upward, facilitating easy emptying and reducing downtime between batches. With its efficient gas-fired heating system, the RK 50 ensures consistent heat distribution, minimizing energy use while maintaining production quality. Built with durable materials, it offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it ideal for demanding food processing environments. For ease of integration, this unit can be adapted to existing production lines and tailored to specific operational requirements, supported by CHOCOTECH’s engineering expertise.
