FFW 0400
Molding Machine – small to medium capacities

Jellies precisely formed in 12 seconds, without additional curing times in a fully automated process. Any shape is possible/flat bottom. No trays. Patent pending. Starting with volumes less than 450 kg/1.000 lb per hour or batches from 10 kg/22 lb. Formulations are dosed into rotating molds at temperatures below 85 °C/ 185°F, a solid state is reached within seconds. This technology can handle very high viscosities (below 0.6 aw); thus, in many cases – depending on individual recipes – further curing time can simply be skipped.

Products can be directly post-processed and packaged. FFW 0400 is perfect for the production of gummies made from 100 % fruit. Highly sensitive ingredients will be exposed to elevated temperatures for only a minimum of time – just right for the production of nutraceuticals. Insertion of real fruit pieces possible. This technology may be combined with a wide range of kitchen equipment or be integrated into existing lines. It can meet demands of food, chemical and pharma industries.
