Area of Applications
- Solid Chocolate Bar Production: Integrates baking, vibrating, and cooling processes to produce uniform, high-quality solid chocolate bars and block chocolates with consistent density and appearance.
- Center-Filled Chocolate Manufacturing: Achieves three-time pouring and two-time filling operations, enabling the production of assorted filled chocolates with smooth centers, multi-layer fillings, or nut-included cores.
- Multi-Color & Patterned Chocolate Formation: Supports one-color, dual-color (left & right/up & down), and three-color chocolate deposition, creating visually distinct, premium chocolate products with unique color combinations and designs.
- Nut-Mixed Chocolate Products: Efficiently mixes and deposits nuts into chocolate matrices, producing nut-infusion chocolates that retain texture and flavor consistency across every unit.
- Custom-Shaped Chocolate Molding: Adapts to polycarbonate molds and trays of varying dimensions, enabling the production of irregularly shaped, artisanal, or industry-specific chocolate products tailored to market demands.
- Small-to-Medium Batch Production: Optimizes small to medium-scale production processes with fully automated one-shot technology, delivering 60-120kg per hour output for artisanal workshops, R&D labs, and mid-sized confectionery factories.
Core Features & Benefits
Integrated Full-Process Automation
Streamlines production by combining baking, three-time pouring, two-time filling, vibrating, and cooling into a single automated workflow. This eliminates manual handling, ensuring consistent quality and high-efficiency production from mold heating to final solidification.
Advanced One-Shot Deposition Technology
Enables precise deposition of chocolate with varying thicknesses and consistencies directly into polycarbonate molds or trays. This technology supports seamless production of solid, filled, nut-mixed, and multi-color chocolate products in one continuous process.
Wide Multi-Product Compatibility
Designed to produce a variety of chocolate formats, including solid bars, center-filled chocolates, dual-color (left & right/up & down) designs, three-color creations, and nut-infused varieties. This flexibility meets diverse market demands and packaging requirements.
Optimized for Small-to-Medium Scale Production
Delivers a dependable output of 60–120 kg per hour, making it ideal for artisanal workshops, R&D labs, and mid-sized confectionery factories. Perfectly tailored to optimize small and medium-scale production processes.
Hygienic Food-Grade Design

Fully Automated, User-Friendly Operation
Requires minimal setup and autonomously manages all stages, from mold preheating to cooling tunnel control. This reduces operator training time, minimizes human error, and ensures stable, consistent performance.
How it works
The journey from fluid chocolate to a finished, packaged treat involves a precise, synchronized five-step process. Every phase must be flawlessly executed to maintain the quality and appearance of the final product.
The process begins with the mold heating stage. Empty polycarbonate molds move along a conveyor and pass through a heating station. Warming the molds to a specific temperature prevents the tempered chocolate from experiencing thermal shock when it comes into contact with the plastic. If the molds are too cold, the chocolate will lose its glossy finish and a satisfying snap.
Next is the depositing stage. The liquid, pre-tempered chocolate is pumped into the machine’s main heated hopper. Using pneumatic or mechanical pistons, the machine pushes a precise volume of fluid chocolate through the dropping nozzles directly into the warmed molds. Accurate feeding ratios are critical here, as too much chocolate will overflow the mold, while too little will result in an incomplete, underweight product.
Once the molds are filled, they move to the vibrating stage. The molds travel over a series of shaking tracks that gently vibrate the liquid chocolate. This crucial step forces any trapped air bubbles to rise to the surface and pop, ensuring a smooth, flawless finish. It also helps the chocolate spread evenly into every corner of the mold.
Following the vibration phase is the cooling stage. The conveyor belt transports the filled molds into a long, climate-controlled cooling tunnel. Inside the tunnel, chilled air circulates around the chocolates, gradually lowering their temperature. This controlled cooling process solidifies the cocoa butter, locking in the glossy shine and crisp texture that consumers expect. As the chocolate cools, it slightly contracts, pulling away from the sides of the mold.
The final step is the demolding stage. As the molds exit the cooling tunnel, they are inverted, and a gentle twisting motion or automated tapping mechanism releases the hardened chocolates. The finished pieces drop onto a smooth conveyor belt, fully hardened and ready to be automatically transferred to the packaging station.
