At present, the development of China's thirst for confectionery industry on scientific and technological innovation is increasing, but the level of development of the domestic equipment manufacturing industry has been overtaken by candy candy manufacturers demand for new product development, equipment manufacturers need to have a big breakthrough, big innovation courage and determination to support the development of the confectionery industry.

Huge market capacity

With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, consumer demands for candy is also rising, began to pay more attention to the intrinsic value of the product. In this context, many companies concerned about the candy mainstream channels also began to consider a new business model, have set his sights on hi shop.

Delin left the candy industry experts believe that with the rapid development of the confectionery industry, the capacity of the candy market is also increasing year by year, with consumers in other provinces is different, compared to the bulk candy weighed by jin, the southern region of consumption They are more inclined to buy gift boxes of products. A gift box package 6-8 pieces of candy with candy, chocolate, hard candy, soft candy, etc., in their view only beautifully packaged products in order to sufficiently express their joy. As in recent years, the living conditions are good, quality people have a natural candy demands some improvement, this time the quality of security, guaranteed quality brand products began selling in the market.

High-end CNC technology is the future development direction of confectionery equipment

At present, the development of China's thirst for confectionery industry on scientific and technological innovation is increasing, but the level of development of the domestic equipment manufacturing industry has been overtaken by candy candy manufacturers demand for new product development, equipment manufacturers need to have a big breakthrough, big innovation courage and determination to support the development of the confectionery industry. High-end CNC technology in confectionery production equipment will be the mainstream of the future direction of confectionery equipment development.

End of the first numerical control technology will be widely used in casting equipment, fitness equipment has been the first to achieve the application of the technology. Before discussing the second-generation numerical control as the core technology of casting equipment, we need to look at the development process of the first-generation candy pouring device: the first generation of Chinese casting production lines have been born more than ten years, ten years to promote China pouring candy vigorous development plays an important role, when only four cable equipment, because equipment large, expensive, and many small factories can not afford, then the sets of equipment after being downsized, launched the second row and three rows of wire, is gradually many domestic confectionery manufacturers generally use. Now, the first generation of casting equipment has limitations in functionality can not meet the growing diversity of the confectionery industry, high-end development requirements, although some equipment manufacturers are also trying to continue to improve, but to have a very big breakthrough difficult.

The second generation of CNC casting production equipment outstanding feature is the nozzle dancing. It does this by way of the high-end CNC pouring nozzle lift from a point to a three-dimensional space can be any movement, so that the device has a remarkable versatility and broad application space: First, there is a very big improvement on the sandwich technique can be accurately achieved sandwich positioning and quantitative control, the maximum amount of the sandwich can reach 70%. Sandwich chocolate leather surface and inside the core material is very uniform, does not occur in the pouring exploding, plasma leakage, and can meet the technology needs of the two concentrations less different combinations of materials for accurate and high-quality quantitative sandwich. The second is capable of graffiti and spiral, allows users to text, graphics, Logo and other write directly painted on the surface of the chocolate, and produce monochrome, two-dimensional planar spiral or helical pattern; third is to replace the manual, to achieve a multi-color casting Fine Pastry .

Domestic Decorating appears fine casting equipment greatly reduces the barriers to entry and barriers to development, to solve the manual Decorating of personnel, waste more, covering large, low efficiency, quality and hygiene control and many other difficult issues, any of its movement pouring nozzle, precise positioning and quantitative, it can be connected in series one or several of the casting casting machine to produce a very rich multicolor Decorating candy.

In Europe, this type of equipment has been relatively mature, the technology represents the future trend of the mainstream development of the industry, the reason why foreign numerically controlled Decorating casting technology for so many years, because the key technology of the device - hydraulic servo control system, China has been unable to break through, so even though the overseas development for so many years, some large domestic manufacturers also imported some equipment, but the price is very expensive (only pouring head, excluding the price of the highest tunnel in Switzerland was 200 million yuan, the lowest in Italy also 1.2 million yuan), so the market has been highbrow, it can not be widely used and promoted.

Candy packaging equipment and automated multi-purpose walking directions

At present, China candy, chocolate packaging mainly kink packaging, pillow packing, folding packaging. Kink packaging is the oldest form of packaging, the packaging used for candy, not only by the high-speed, automated packaging machine to complete, can also be done by manual operation; pillow packing internationally popular in the 1970s, from domestic It became popular in the 1980s. Since the pillow packing machine more popular, for most candy, chocolate manufacturers are using pillow packaging; folding and packaging used for chocolate, candy bar made of a suitable package, wrapping, boxes, this form of packaging and packaging equipment packaging materials have higher requirements. China candy, chocolate, there is a large gap between the packaging and the developed countries, the main problem is the low level of packaging equipment, packaging material type less packaging quality is not high. To narrow this gap, and only take the road of technological innovation, China candy, chocolate packaging should be moving in three directions: First, high-speed automated packaging equipment, a machine capable of; the second is the packaging material enrichment; Third, Distinctive packaging design.

In recent years, China candy, chocolate production and packaging equipment manufacturer cooperation in the introduction, the original autonomy has made gratifying achievements in the confectionery equipment has launched inflatable candy production line, automatic production line colloid candy, lollipop production line, cotton candy production line, super heat conductive ultra-thin films of vacuum boil sugar machine, automatic icing Decorating equipment; packaging machinery with a single twist packing machines, folding packaging machine, high speed pillow charter flights; chocolate equipment multi-function color chocolate pouring line, chocolate products, complex automatic lines, chocolate extrusion line, chocolate and other fast refiner.

Multifunction is an important trend in development of new equipment, as candy, chocolate varieties of patterns, updated quickly, manufacturers of equipment requirements are versatile and adaptable. Composite products such as chocolate on a newly developed automatic line with the production of candy, chocolate and compound coatings multifunction products. The entire production line can produce various sugars having different core and high-quality composite laminate chocolate, such as only the tip of the molding section, capable of producing toffee, nougat, toffee, Switzerland rectangular sugar varieties, such as use the rear end portion of the coating, the coating surface can be adapted to the requirements of a variety of products.

Candy, chocolate manufacturers in the standardization of product packaging, generally requires high-speed, automated packaging machines, in pursuit of economies of scale packaging cost optimization. Thus, in recent years, packaging equipment manufacturers developed to fit the different types of products of high-speed, automatic candy, chocolate packaging machine, such as the traditional pillow and something for packaging products with a double kink kink packaging machines. On such packaging machine manufacturers using the latest technologies such as servo motors, optical tracking, high-speed cameras, in order to achieve performance packaging machines, there are 1500 - 2000 packages per minute grains of hard candy high speed pillow packing machine. High-speed pillow packing machine chocolate should be more cold air from the equipment and packaging films to match other aspects of research system, in order to achieve high speed without affecting the intrinsic quality chocolate products. In addition, chocolate packaging machine connected to the automatic steering belt, finishing, stop, acceleration is also widely used. Secondly, non-standardized or seasonal products, packaging machine should be designed to be flexible, lightweight and compact. The type of equipment is not the pursuit of speed, but rather seek personalized packaging and flexibility. In addition, the distinctive packaging design can also cater to commodity competition, innovation, giving the effect of visual impact.
