Our loose mould line ChocoStar produces top-quality chocolates, tablets, and bars. This high-throughput, high-efficiency line allows easy switching between filled and non-filled chocolates, delivering the reliability you want for your volume production.
The ChocoStar allows you to produce filled chocolate tablets and bars, filled and ball-shaped chocolates as well as solid tablets, all at high throughputs. This line is able to process up to 40 moulds per minute. It can deliver a throughput of up to 8000 kg/h.
You can choose between two cutting-edge technologies on a single line. Create your products either using traditional wet-shell forming with an oscillating process or using the CoolCore cold-stamping technology. Depending on the requirements, the filling area can be equipped with one or more depositors. Various feeding systems for inclusions can be added as well.
Between the production stages for the shell, filling, and back, the moulds are transported through a precisely controlled thermos-technical process. This yields exquisite chocolates with a glossy finish thanks to a controlled crystallization process.
High operational reliability
The moulds can either be transported in a race-track configuration or in a straight line, enabling your ChocoStar line to fit into the available space.
Hygienic design
The end-to-end hygienic design of the line provides a ground clearance of 300 mm under the entire line as well as easy access for maintenance and cleaning.
