BALL MILL

Processing of chocolate equipment/  STANICA NA PRÍPRAVU ČOKOLÁDY

Guľový mlyn a mixér na čokoládu

Continuous refining plant for chocolate/Ball refining plants for creams/Chocolate Grinding Attritors, chocolate processing solutions

 

The equipment is designed for for the fine grinding of, chocolate, compound,

coatings and bread-spreads. It is composed from ball mill and mixer- vessel with 500 L volume and from circulation systen

 

DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT

 

  • Ball mill- low speed agitated type suitable for heat sensitive masses with optimum grinding efficiency
  • Mixer for ingredient with extraction fan placed on its top (Volatile acid and moisture are remove with this unit )The mixer can perform mixing, grinding and conching of the ingredients simultaneously.

PROCESS

 

Put all ingredients like fat, powders, sweets and other solids into fisrt mixing zone. After that the process of circulation system starts

After that the process of circulation system starts from underneath the mixer through ball mill. The distarge of product is done turning the 3-way valve into distarge position

.

 

SPECIFICATION OF PROCESS:

 

  • Capacity of vessel 500 kg
  • To achieve finessess 25 micrones tak (In case of granulated sugar (1.2mm) is used as an ingredient) process takes 60 minutes
  • To achieve finesses 18 micrones take longer (If you add a powdered sugar- total grinding time can be reduced)
  •  To measure the finesess we use a digital hand micrometer

 BENEFITS OF PROCESS

 

  • No foundations, limited floor space.
  • Low energy.
  • Low maintenance costs.
  •  High product quality.
  •  Good particle size distribution.
  • Long durability
  • No  technical man power
