Sweets packaging line feeding with pneumatic conveyor
CUSTOMER NEEDS

SWEET PACKAGING FEEDING LINE

In theconfectionery industry, the requirements for feeding the packaging machine vary depending on the type of product to be packaged:

  • Finished products, such as sweets or chocolate: they must be moved carefully through the packaging machine to maintain integrity and minimise waste.
  • Powdered products, such as cocoa: they can be fed more quickly into the machine and retain all their organoleptic qualities received during the previous phases.
  • Granular products, such as sugar: to minimise the demixing potential and maintain its quality, dense phase pneumatic conveyors will be used to load the product.

Delfin Pneumatic Conveyors, an expert in solutions for the confectionery industry, designs conveying solutions that preserve the properties of any type of product during the packaging phase.

CASE STUDIES

CONVEYING ON A COCOA PACKAGING MACHINE

The customer, a leading company in the sale of cocoa powder, needed to optimise its packaging system.
The work was carried out by an aeromechanical elevator, which, with this type of product, often became clogged and required intensive sanitisation at each product changeover. This procedure took 3 hours and involved 3 operators. With the new Delfin system, the operation takes 30 minutes and involves only one operator. The clamp connections facilitate the assembly, disassembly and sanitising operations.

Thanks to the Delfin solution, this process becomes automated, from the product picking point to the cocoa packaging machine. This increases the productivity of the line, which is managed entirely by a single operator, and eliminates the risk of product contamination. Thanks to the pneumatic vibrator on the hopper, the cocoa flows without any clogging issues, thus increasing the profitability of the line.
