NETZSCH has developed a new concept for the conching machine that will replace the successful U-Conch. It is to be integrated with the Rumba® chocolate production lines. Ease of cleaning was a high priority for the new conching machine in order to help producers meet the highest hygienic standards. Product safety and repeatability were the basis of the design concept from the very first sketch. Hygienic design with, for example, a smooth inner surface, without screws, sharp corners or edges, holes, surface depressions or static parts inside the tank which are potential residual contaminants...

A highlight to be mentioned is the fully enclosed design with integrated high-pressure Cleaning in Place (CIP) devices, which work with fats, water or rinsing liquid. Sterilizing in Place (SIP) with steam is also possible, as well as operation under vacuum, e.g. for drying purposes. The basic cleaning cycle at the end of each conching process requires just 1% of the Conch's volume. This is achieved with the residual fat from the recipe itself, and takes only 5 to 10 minutes. After this automatic step, all that remains is an incredibly low residual value of less than 0.2% of the conch...

Rework from production with a high moisture content – fillings or caramel MIXING + DRYING + VACUUM Confectionery manufacturers are confronted with the problem of rework on a daily basis. Rework is a wide variety of products that exhibit irregular specifications such as weight, integrity, shape, breaks, etc. during processing in the production chain. Such „good products“ are often reprocessed as a mass for other purposes. The problem usually lies with products that are no longer suitable for standard rework by means of mechanical and thermal processing due to higher moisture content or...
