Medical gummies are a great alternative to traditional tablets while having to take medicine since they are easy to consume and can taste and look more appetizing. The pharmacological properties of the active ingredients in medical gummies render them particularly susceptible to environmental factors, which means you have to pay a lot of attention to detail when producing them. Therefore you have to follow rigorous regulations to ensure consistency, potency, and safety in every batch.

Chewing gum is usually a polymer that you mix with flavorings – which is something most consumers have no clue about. In a survey in Iceland, 85% of people said they didn't know the product contained plastic. While there are non-plastic options more recently available, the gum base is usually natural latex or a synthetic substitute. To decrease the impacts on the environment, some producers are shifting towards more environmental-friendly options.

The kitchen toaster may be the first appliance that a jam jar brings to mind. But turning fruit into the classic spreadable involves an entire line of jam processing equipment. The meticulous preparation for high-capacity jam manufacturing puts paid to the old idiom 'money for jam'.

Legend has it that the word ‘marmalade’ is a derivate of “Marie est Malade”. Supposedly, the acidic-sweet mixture was offered to Marie Antoinette when the Queen of France fell malade. Whatever the true origins of the name, marmalade processing equipment has quickly made the golden spread a pick-me-up for the masses.

Marmalade

It’s important to get timing and temperature right when making caramel, and this implies being vigilant. For small scale production of caramel, ensure that your heat source distributes heat evenly and monitor the caramelization process closely. This prevents recrystallization and burning the sugar. For medium to large scale caramel production, consider investing in automated caramel making equipment.

Nougat is a delicious confection that contains lots of nuts and dried fruits. The word “nougat” itself derives from an old Latin word for nuts. In addition to nuts, the white variety of nougat contains egg whites, honey, and sugar. Similar ingredients make brown nougat variations, except caramelized sugar replaces egg whites as the base ingredient. Depending on your intended scale of production, there are quite a few nougat making equipment you should consider getting.

Nougat

Yogurt makers start with raw milk from animals like cows and goats and produce yogurt by standardizing milk, reducing fat content and increasing total solids before pasteurizing to remove harmful bacteria. After pasteurization, the milk undergoes homogenization to make it smoother and more consistent. The milk then receives yogurt cultures, and the product undergoes a fermentation process. Finally, you can cool and refrigerate the yogurt and prepare it for packing.

Industrial food processors are a vital component of the food processing industry. Large-scale food processing is made possible with the help of food processing equipment and automated food processing systems. Food production lines that utilize these technologies can increase efficiency, reduce costs, and maintain consistent quality control. But what exactly does an industrial food processor do? Simply put, it's a machine that processes raw materials into finished products. There are three types of food processors: batch processors, continuous processors, and combination processors. Batch processors are used for small-scale production runs, while continuous processors are ideal for high-volume production.

Mixing Equipment

Industrial mixing equipment is used to combine two or more solid, liquid or gaseous segregated ingredients into a homogenous single product. The choice of mixing technology depends largely on the physical state of the ingredients and the desired final product. But the sensitivity of the ingredients, the process temperature, and pressure requirements are also critical factors. All these parameters result in a wide range of industrial mixers.

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.

Fruit pulp is a mass of pressed fresh fruit not meant for immediate consumption. Production of fruit pulp avoids wasting food and preserves the flavors and nutrient value of the fruit product. Processed fruit pulp is an ingredient in beverages, sauces, baby foods, jellies, smoothies, and bakery products.

Tradition and manufacturing procedures dictate the distinction between fruit juice, puree, and pulp. Still, naming and labeling are complex and depend on regulations, type of fruit, texture, consistency, preservation methods, and sugar or solid content (measured in Degrees Brix). Depending on your desired output, there are various fruit pulper machines for different stages of production that make the process quicker and more efficient.

Gummies, a staple in the confectionery industry, can come in various forms, such as gummy bears, vitamin gummies, heart-shaped jellies, and many more mouth-watering alternatives. They are manufactured using specialized equipment for mixing, molding, coating, and packaging. From precise mixers to efficient packaging lines, industrial gummy production relies on a range of equipment to ensure consistent quality and meet consumer demand worldwide.

Sauces bring personality to a dish. From a spicy, dense Zhoug to a tangy, runny Suero, sauces add an extra dimension of flavor, texture, and mouthfeel. But developing recipes into industrial products with long shelf lives and consistent tastes is a complex process. Specialized sauce making equipment prepares and combines the ingredients into delicious, high-quality foods. The result is a sauce ready to elevate meals.

Dispersing systems are used to produce emulsions of two immiscible liquids or dispersions of solid particles in a liquid medium. The mixers generally operate on the rotor/stator principle and apply a high shear force on the suspended particles to break them down. The choice of a dispersion mixer depends on the physical state of the material being dispersed, the continuous or batch nature of the process, desired particle size, and the viscosity of the mixture. Dispersion mixers are widely used in the food industry for the dispersion of solid ingredients in oil or water and in the coatings industry for the dispersion of pigments.

Jelly gets its name from its primary ingredient – gelatin. Substances such as pectin and agar-agar offer vegan alternatives to the original animal extract. But there’s more to making jelly products than a semi-rigid, flexible ingredient. Jelly powders blend sugar, starch, and thickening agents to give body to the dessert. Last but not least, food colorants and flavorings bring the otherwise bland mass to life.

During the Middle Ages, sugar sweets were a delicacy only for the rich due to the high cost of sugar. Thankfully, the discovery that sugar could be extracted from sugar beets made sweets affordable for everyone. The sweet category is broad, covering chocolates, chewing gums, sugar candies, and candied/glazed products with sugar. To make these confections, sugar manufacturing equipment needs to cover different steps within the production line such as sugar dissolution, syrup cooking and cooling.

Aerators are devices used for mixing air (oxygen transfer) with a liquid such as water or oil to form a homogeneous product. Selecting an industrial aeration system involves choosing a suitable mixing head and considering the desired input and output flows, temperature, level of aeration, properties of the liquid phase, and the degree of automation and pressure control. Aerators are used in the food industry for the production of fat-based center masses and crèmes and in the chemical industry for wastewater treatment. When it comes to water treatment, surface aerators are most commonly used.

To make candy, all you need to do is create a syrup by dissolving sugar and boiling it to your desired consistency. For medium to large scale candy production, candy making equipment fully automates the whole process and takes care of other production regulations and standards (such as hygiene and proper homogenization). Planning on getting one? There’s a wide range of choices to pick from.

Cannabinoids are natural compounds obtained from the Cannabis sativa plant. Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol or THC is a psychotropic substance. Cannabidiol, or CBD, is non-psychotropic and often used for nutraceutical purposes. Cannabinoid equipment extracts THC and CBD from the plant and prepares the substance for formulations that treat pain, nausea, anxiety, and inflammations. Cannabinoids are processed in various forms, including creams, capsules, and oils.

Eating is more than just nutrition, but we have found ways to increase the nourishing power of our foods. Nutraceuticals manufacturing, from vitamin C powder and probiotics to omega 3 oil, is a concentration of natural ingredients and health supplements that complement our diets. While dietary supplements are not quite haute cuisine, the process of extraction and purification is no less a blend of science and art.

Nutraceuticals

Pharmaceutical developments walk side by side with health advances to provide new medicines, treatments, and therapies that have increased life quality and extended life expectancy by years. Pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment helps deliver products to a great deal of the population, but there’s a significant share that doesn’t benefit from them yet. Over 2 billion people cannot get the medicines they need, according to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, and local production might be a way to provide for these people.

Blending

Whether it is marmalade or pizza, sauce or hummus, chocolate or fruit puree, most food products undergo a cooking step during their production process. Cooking is nothing more than applying heat to food, but there are different methods to do it. For instance, baking, frying, and roasting involve cooking food without using water, unlike boiling or steaming. Industrial cookers such as vacuum and pressure cookers, industrial fryers, industrial ovens, and industrial roasters focus on specialized applications that meet the different needs of the food industry by helping producers achieve a homogeneous cooking process.

Cooking

Depositing equipment is a very common production line process in the food industry. Whether you want to make muffins or jellies or garnish and decorate cakes, all of this is impossible without the depositing step. Depositing is a form of extrusion used primarily to produce pieces of dough that will be further processed to create several food products. The dough is passed through a depositing machine and poured in equal parts from holes in a die plate with nozzles or a conveyor belt. But that’s not all. Depositors are also used to fill, layer, or cover your food items with other ingredients before proceeding to the next step of the production process which is usually packaging.

Depositing

Industrial drying machines are designed to remove moisture from your product. But the drying process must cater to variations in the state of matter and molecular structure of the input material. Industrial dryer technology exploits the modes of heat transfer (convection, conduction, radiation, evaporative cooling) to control the moisture content.

Drying

<span style="font-weight: 400">The heating process is a step of raising the temperature of food, pharma, cosmetics, and many other types of products. You may employ different heating solutions for this process, depending on the type of product you intend to manufacture. Selecting the appropriate heater machine for your product is quite important since various products require different ranges of temperatures and different ways of heat transfer using exchangers. Industrial heating equipment varies in two ways - the type of material it can process and the reaction you want to achieve.</span>

Heating

<span style="font-weight: 400">The molding process is often included in bakery products. Utilizing molding equipment guarantees a uniform shape, weight, and size. The molding machine first gently flattens the dough mix by going through a sheeter, where a series of rollers press the thin piece of dough. The sheet is then cut into the specified shape and, depending on your final product, may be rolled by using a curling chain. After the molding, other ingredients may be added before the products are conveyed for baking or freezing.</span>

<h2>Making gummies on an industrial scale</h2>
Gummies are crafted from a thickening agent like gelatin or pectin, sweeteners, flavors, and colors. First you must mix the ingredients and then cook the gummy mass with an industrial cooker. Make sure that you spend time developing the right recipe to fit your gummy needs, otherwise your gummy mixture can turn out too sticky, cloudy or wet.

Next, you can mold the mixture into various shapes and sizes using high-speed molding machines. After molding, your gummies can undergo additional processing steps such as coating or polishing to enhance appearance and texture. And finally you can pack your sweet treats.

In addition to being little sweet treats, gummies can also enhance wellness or serve as medicine. Therefore you can add functional and active ingredients to your gummy mixture, such as vitamins, Omega-3, CBD, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), or even herbal extracts. Functional gummies can also promote hair growth or help you sleep better.

Producing them on an industrial scale requires precise gummy formulation, since the active ingredients can change the properties of the mixture. Adding an ingredient means balancing out the rest, and many functional ingredients, for example vitamins, require the addition of antioxidants, coloring agents, or buffer salts.

Start making functional gummies

Achieving uniform taste, texture, and appearance across large gummy and jelly batches requires precise ingredient measurement and processing control. Conduct thorough testing and stability studies on ingredients to ensure they maintain their quality throughout production and shelf life. You can also consider encapsulation techniques or alternative ingredient forms to improve stability of your gummies.

To make your production process more seamless use automated mixing systems and precise ingredient measuring equipment to ensure uniformity. You should also implement strict quality control checks throughout the production process.

Removing vitamin or CBD gummies from the moulds by hand can damage or contaminate them. As with other nutraceutical products, handling of products requires hygienic methods. To lessen the chances of cross-contamination, the products must be removed easily from the mould without physical contact from operators.


<h2>Extracts gummies from moulds without physical contact.</h2>
The OTC 400S NS Demoulder, from Tanis, is an automated system for removing nutraceutical gummies from moulds. The system requires loading the moulds manually, facing down, and sanitary compressed air is applied to remove the products quickly and easily without physical contact. The products fall on a conveyor, and the empty moulds can be collected manually and stacked for re-use in the depositor. The system’s ergonomic design reduces operator fatigue and strain, allowing comfortable and continuous smooth operation.

Small-scale demoulder for starchless functional gummy production

The drying process demands specific environmental conditions to ensure the integrity of nutraceutical products like gummy vitamins and supplements in their jelly-like forms. This includes maintaining the appropriate temperature and humidity levels. Exposing these products to an open environment, where variables like temperature, humidity, and airflow cannot be controlled, could result in quality deterioration, contamination risks, and uneven drying.


<h2>Dry your functional gummies uniformly with a modular conditioning system</h2>
The OTC 400S NS Conditioning room, from Tanis, is a modular conditioning system for drying functional gummies and jellies. The design features an integrated air handling unit (AHUs) with a desiccant dryer to maintain a steady and uniform flow of air among the trays within the enclosed area, ensuring consistent drying of products. The closed system allows full control of the environment according to the parameters set for each batch of products and eliminates unwanted external conditions. Depending on production line requirements, the room can accommodate up to 840 moulding trays. Due to its precise control of the space conditions, retention times for products are reduced while allowing consistent reproduction of gummies and jellies.
