Tempering Machines – Perfect Chocolate

Tempering Machines – Perfecting Chocolate Quality with Precision

Tempering is an essential process in chocolate production to achieve a perfectly finished product. A well-tempered chocolate ensures the right texture, structure, and finish, delivering superior quality. The ATM Tempering Machines meet the highest industry standards, offering optimal solutions for perfect chocolate microcrystallization.

 

Why Tempering is Essential for Chocolate Production

Tempering chocolate is crucial to achieve five main features that guarantee the quality of the final product:

 

Long tempering sections: These sections allow the chocolate to undergo the perfect tempering process, ensuring a smooth texture and excellent finish.

Large cooling surfaces: The larger cooling surfaces aid in maintaining a consistent temperature, promoting even crystallization for the best results.

Turbulent mixing: This feature promotes even distribution of heat and cold throughout the chocolate, ensuring uniform tempering.

Cooling time: Adequate cooling time is essential for the development of the chocolate’s crystalline structure.

Accurate temperature control: Maintaining precise temperatures throughout the tempering process is key to achieving the ideal chocolate quality.

The ATM Tempering Machines are designed with these five construction features to ensure the perfect microcrystallization of the chocolate mass, resulting in consistently high-quality products.

 

Final Product Characteristics

When using ATM Tempering Machines, the final product exhibits the following outstanding characteristics:

 

Unique gloss: The chocolate achieves a glossy finish, giving it an appealing appearance.

Fine-grained and dense structure: The tempering process produces a smooth, fine-grained texture that improves the mouthfeel of the chocolate.

Extended shelf-life: Properly tempered chocolate has a longer shelf life, maintaining its quality over time.

Crispy break: The final product has the perfect crisp when broken, adding to the overall experience.

Short cooling time: With efficient cooling, the production process is faster, improving overall efficiency.

Maximum contraction: Proper tempering ensures that the chocolate contracts optimally when cooling, providing a perfect finish.

Three-Zone Tempering Machine

The Three-Zone Tempering Machine offers a unique precrystallizing system with three tempering zones. This feature provides flexibility and optimal control over the tempering process, resulting in a more consistent and high-quality product. The production capacity of the machine can be adjusted through a frequency controller, allowing manufacturers to tailor the machine’s performance to their needs.

 

All process parameters, including temperatures and pump speeds, are easily adjustable via a touchscreen panel. Each tempering zone has its own independent temperature control, with temperature probes directly placed in the chocolate flow. This setup ensures the accurate and consistent chocolate temperature throughout the process.

 

The PID temperature controllers and the use of both hot and cold water allow for precise temperature management. Additionally, re-heating or cooling can be applied in the first and last zones as needed, ensuring optimal chocolate quality. The entire machine is PLC controlled, ensuring ease of use and precise control over the tempering process.
