Wafer sheet conditioning tunnel for chocolate coating
In the production of chocolate-coated wafers, maintaining the structural integrity and preventing cracking are crucial. Moisture control is necessary to avoid the uncontrolled absorption that leads to expansion and quality issues.
Ensures uniform moisture distribution
The Wafer Sheet Conditioning Tunnel CK by Hebenstreit is designed to condition wafer sheets by adding controlled amounts of moisture. This helps in maintaining moisture equilibrium and prevents splitting and cracking when wafers are coated in chocolate. The process takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes and can handle up to 65 wafer sheets per minute, depending on the plant capacity. The system uses a specialized air conduction system that uniformly distributes moisture and precisely controls temperature and humidity. The unit is made from high-grade stainless steel, featuring swing doors and viewing windows for easy access and monitoring. Optional online moisture measurement is available for improved quality control.
