Lollipop forming system for various shapes
Create perfectly shaped lollipops with precise control over size and design while minimizing downtime through rapid changeovers and integrated detection systems.
Forms and Detects Lollipops with Precision
The GEA Aquarius FlexFormer Start Up is your go-to solution for efficient lollipop production. This machine excels in forming both ball and 3D lollipops, with options for center-filled variations, catering to confectionery manufacturers and startups alike. Its sugar rope detection system ensures precision by halting stick feeding when sugar is absent. Designed for quick changeovers, it enables shape and size adjustments within one hour, enhancing production flexibility. Integrated with automatic lubrication and machine damage protection, it minimizes downtime and maintenance needs. Available with an optional Clean-In-Place (CIP) unit, it ensures fast and efficient cleaning, making it compliant with CE marking standards. The FlexFormer’s modular design supports seamless integration into continuous production lines, with throughput tailored for mid-range operations. Optional wrapping solutions provide further customization, allowing you to maintain product integrity with minimal manual intervention.
