Lumps melting system for chocolate and cocoa mass
Efficiently transform solid butter, grease, and chocolate into uniform liquids, speeding up your production process while ensuring complete melting and consistency across batches. Ideal for operations requiring precise temperature control and uniformity.

Melts, Heats, Crushes, and Stirs Solids
Boema S.p.A.’s Lumps Melting Systems offer a versatile solution for melting and processing solid food products across the food, dairy, and confectionery industries. These systems employ either horizontal or vertical axes and feature an upper grid heated by hot water or steam to initiate quick melting. The underlying tank maintains temperature for complete melting and can include a stirrer to expedite the process. For challenging products, an integrated Lumps Crushing Machine breaks down lumps into flakes for easier melting. Suitable for seamless integration into production lines, these systems handle a variety of solid and slurry types, supporting manual and continuous operations to produce butter blocks, chocolate bars, and cheese sauces. Available in durable materials to ensure compatibility with food-grade standards, Boema’s systems can be customized to meet specific processing requirements.
