Thin chocolate shell forming
Create gourmet confections with precision by forming delicate chocolate shells, perfect for versatile fillings and intricate designs, enhancing both presentation and flavor.
Forms and Fills Thin Chocolate Shells
The FROZENSHELL® from CHOCOTECH GmbH is a specialized machine designed for the continuous forming and filling of thin chocolate shells, ideal for confectionery manufacturers producing pralines and gourmet chocolates. It operates by dipping low-temperature form stamps into tempered chocolate, determining shell height through dipping depth. The process continues as the stamp plate deposits the precisely aligned shells onto a transport belt, where they undergo slight cooling before filling with a variety of praline masses through additional downstream processes.
This machine excels in producing versatile chocolate forms, supporting various fillable gourmet chocolates and desserts. With three configurations available, it accommodates working widths of 420 mm, 620 mm, and 820 mm, achieving respective throughputs of 234, 364, and 612 pieces per minute, ensuring high-speed operation for demanding production environments.
FROZENSHELL® integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, with the ability for quick tool changes to produce diverse shapes and sizes. Its PLC-controlled systems enhance operational efficiency and precision. The machine is crafted for reliability, featuring stainless steel constructions tailored for the food industry, ensuring durability and ease of maintenance. This equipment streamlines chocolate production with its innovative approach and robust engineering support.
