Multi decoration line
Multi decoration line (MDL)
A versatile molding solution
The MDL is our most versatile steel belt moulding/forming system, with all the capabilities of the specialty production line (SPL) but with additional forming technology. So, as well as medium capacity throughput of industrial chips and chunks in a range of sizes, it also enables the production of highly decorative and gourmet chocolate products such as:
Chips/drops
Chunks
Blossom
Sticks/rolls (single and duocolor)
Shavings
Vermicelli
Plaquettes
Pencils
Grids

How it works
Efficient production of drops, chunks or decorative items
The products being processed – whether drops, chunks or decorative items – are deposited onto an 800 mm steel belt conveyor and transported through the cooling tunnel system. They are carried back on the underside of the return stand before being removed onto an FDA-compliant PVC conveyor. They travel back through the tunnel for a third time and are discharged for downstream processing.
Benefits
Designed for versatility in chocolate production
Like all our steel belt-based, triple pass systems, the MDL offers an outstanding combination of control, efficiency and product quality from a system designed to make the best possible use of every square metre of floorspace.
The system can be used for the production of chips (80,000 to 300 pcs/kg), for chunks, or for a wide range of decorative products such as chocolate vermicelli or chocolate pencil production. Capacity depends on the product type and size or product but is typically between 65 and 900 kg/hr.
