Vitamin gummies depositing Equipment

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.

Chewy, sweet, and nutritious. Vitamin gummies were a couple’s attempt to get their child to take their essential micronutrients. The idea quickly caught on, and manufacturing vitamin gummies soon grew into a whole new industry.

Mainstream technology for the preparation of gummies and jellies relies on a coating of starch on mold trays to avoid the stickiness of the sugary mix. But starch creates risks of microbial contamination. In addition, the entire operation of layering and removing starch from depositing stations slows down the gummy manufacturing process. The use of starch presents many hygiene and cross-contamination risks, as well as efficiency, quality and financial compromises.


<h2>Remove starch from the depositing stage to make higher quality confectionery</h2>
The ServoForm system for gummies and jellies from Baker Perkins is designed for high output starch-free production. The depositor technology produces high quality, high-definition gummies and jellies and eliminates the formation of crusts typically caused by starch.

Instead of traditional starch trays, cooked syrups and fruit pastes are deposited into solid molds made from metal, polymer, or rubber for maximum hygiene. These molds, combined with continuous, accurate depositing at final moisture, create high quality confectionery pieces that are perfectly shaped, with a beautifully smooth surface finish.

Devised for rapid production and quick product changeovers, the depositor technology can produce an almost unlimited variety of solid, striped and layered confectionery with multiple flavours and components. Fillings and inclusions can be incorporated easily.

Consistent product size, shape and weight contribute to improved wrapping efficiency, and enhanced hygiene features reduce cleaning and maintenance costs throughout the line.

High Output Industrial Production Line for Gummies and Jellies

The traditional method for gummy and jelly production uses starch to keep the ingredients from sticking to the mold trays. But, as an organic byproduct, starch raises concerns about microbial contamination. Moreover, starch leads to coarser edges of individual sweets, lowering the quality of the end products. The use of starch presents many hygiene and cross-contamination risks, as well as efficiency, quality and financial compromises.

<h2>Make high-definition gummies that are free from starch</h2>
The ServoForm Flexi system for gummies and jellies from Baker Perkins is designed for starch-free production. Starch-free depositing is both more hygienic and economic than traditional starch mogul production for the lower throughputs that are typically required for functional, nutraceutical and healthcare markets.

The ServoForm Flexi system offers the capability to produce gummies and jellies with longer setting times. 3D, solid, striped, centre-filled and layered products with gelatin, pectin or specialized gelling agents are deposited at final solids so no drying is required, only setting/conditioning.

A unique single-piece plastic mould allows for rapid product changeovers. The strong, rigid construction provides resistance to twisting to maintain depositing accuracy and stack stability, and is designed to survive both manual and automatic handling for multiple cycles. They are temperature resistant to allow hot product and automatic washing.

Flexible Output Line For Gummies and Jellies

The original technique for making gums and jellies exploited the non-stick properties of starch to form candies. However, the use of starch presents many hygiene and cross-contamination risks, as well as efficiency, quality and financial compromises.


<h2>Make quality products free from starch</h2>
The low output ServoForm Mini system for gummies and jellies from Baker Perkins is designed for 100% starch-free production for a variety of products. Based on Baker Perkins’ high-output ServoForm confectionery depositing technology, the ServoForm Mini deposits high quality products with a consistent size and shape, and high piece weight accuracy.

The small footprint, low energy costs and elimination of starch significantly reduce production costs compared with traditional starch moulding processes. Low scrap rate, quick product changeovers and continuous processing mean a rapid payback is assured.

Full servo control and detailed recipe management allows for complex mixes with up to 4 components and unlimited shape designs. The ServoForm is optimized for full 3D gummies as well as striped, layered, and center-fill options.

Low Output Production Line for Gummies and Jellies

Manufacturing nutraceutical products such as vitamin gummies, CBD gummies, and supplements necessitates a hygienic production approach to prevent potential cross-contamination. Using starch depositing heightens the probability of starch particles compromising the product surroundings.


<h2>Deposit nutraceutical gummies hygienically by applying heat on contact surfaces</h2>
The OTC 400S NS Moulding, from Tanis, is a starchless depositing and moulding system specifically designed for handling nutraceuticals and gummies. The system features heated contact surfaces where the product mass passes to prevent the risk of pre-gelling. The machine is equipped with a closed-jacketed pump housing that keeps the dosing accurate. Moulds used in the system are made of top-quality hygienic and rigid polycarbonate material or an option to use silicon material. Controls for piston parameters such as piston speed, suck back, and stroke length can be adjusted through an intuitive HMI interface.

Tech is [was] keeping vitamin gummy manufacturers from cutting starch

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient, but the human species lost the ability to produce it biologically during the course of evolution. Instead, we source the substance either from whole foods or vitamin C manufacturing. The chemical characteristics of the natural nutrient and processed compound are the same, but supplements offer higher concentrations, especially to persons with nutrient deficiencies.

Vitamin C

Gummy candy are a very popular confectionery, because they are versatile and appeal to a wide variety of tastes. Another reason for the popularity of this delicious candy is the fact that it’s easy to produce, particularly in small quantities. For medium to large scale production of gummies, there is a multitude of gummy manufacturing equipment to help ensure that you end up with a good product.

Gummies

Baker Perkins supplies technology for the bakery, biscuit, confectionery, supplements, snack and breakfast cereal sectors, The company's production machines are based on over 100 years of experience in the field.

When the starch mogul was first introduced in the early 1900s, it revolutionized the way jellies and gummies were produced.

The machine punched a mold into a bed of starch, much like an industrial cookie cutter. The gelatinous mixture was left to set until the starch absorbed enough moisture to produce a solid.

Although gums took hours to form, the technique relatively quick method for mass-producing candies in a more-or-less consistent shape. But it didn’t come without its costs. Manufacturers now needed extra space for starch rooms and a whole new process of filling starch trays, then separating the starch from the formed candies and drying it again for re-use.

Nevertheless, the clouds of starch particles that filled the shopfloors were a step forward from the laborious hand-forming of the day.


<h3>New gummy products, old manufacturing methods</h3>
The mogul technique is still widely used today, but gummies have changed considerably over the decades. Gummy products have expanded to include medicated formulations like vitamin gummies. Meanwhile, greater awareness of the contamination risks associated with starch is prompting regulators to introduce stricter validation standards for manufacturers.

Bulk starch sitting in storage is fertile ground for microorganisms, including pathogenic ones. This raises a new set of challenges, particularly for producers of vitamin gummies. They must constantly monitor the starch for microbial contamination and treat it with radiation before using it.
<h3>The time of starch-free production technology</h3>
Baker Perkins developed a system to manufacture high-quality gummies without any starch. The syrup formula is accurately deposited into 3D molds made from food-grade material.

But besides eliminating contamination issues, removing starch from the process simplifies the operation. No tray-filling, no handling issues, and no starch drying. In addition, the system allows manufacturers to form high-definition vitamin gummies with multiple coloring possibilities.

Unlike traditional methods, starch-free production simplifies demolding while fully preserving the shape of the gums. Keith Graham, marketing manager at Baker Perkins, explained to us how the combination of the mold material, the surface finish, and a special spray solution impacts the end product. “Getting these parameters right is the key to achieving 100% demolding.”

The reasons to move past the starch mogul have been mounting for years. But, just like the time the mogul was invented, the industry needs an efficient alternative to take the leap.

Baker Perkins has roots in the same era when the starch mogul became the obvious way to produce jelly products. The next step forward is taking vitamin gummies starch-free.
