Candy food industry production line CF4

The CF4 candy former is at the heart of the candy processing line and has therefore been designed with strength and durability as its main assets. A substantial cast iron frame supports the drive, candy feed rollers, die head and the integral conveyor/spreader discharge. The candy former has a number of features, which make it an ideal choice for candy manufacturers. Die rotation speed is variable by AC Inverter The speed of the infeed rollers can be varied relative to the speed of the die, which is particularly useful for difficult products like chewy candy The main drive is through timing belts to reduce noise level and moving parts Spreader conveyor motor is independent and adjustable Integral fan to force air to the spreader conveyor, die and candy feed rollers Scrap tray under the die with outlet for connection to a dust extraction unit Spring loaded one piece pressure cam with cam rollers (optional pneumatic control) Automatic lubrication to cams and bearings Automatic matrix ring pressure relief to reduce die wear Fast die removal by use of clamps and sliding pull back cams Overhead crane feature to allow easy removal of die front cover Smooth lines for easy cleaning Output A maximum of 100 die revolutions per minute can be achieved. For asweet diameter of 20mm weighing 5 grams this equates to 1320kgs/hour.
