Spinner Moulding Line
Hollow chocolates and 3D figures, with the wall thickness under control.
Specifications
| Model | Capacity | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Spinner — 1×holder | 5 moulds/min | 1 mould per holder |
| Spinner — 2×holder | 10 moulds/min | 2 moulds per holder |
Hollow chocolate is a seasonal goldmine and a production headache in equal measure. The product is mostly air, margins are excellent, demand spikes at Easter and Christmas — and every thin spot in a shell wall becomes a crushed figure in the carton and a claim from your retailer.
The Alpy Spinner Moulding Line exists to make hollow production behave like normal production. Filled, closed moulds rotate through the spinner group while a special vibration process distributes the chocolate, producing uniform wall thickness across every product. Uniform walls mean predictable weight per piece, predictable strength in packing and transit, and a reject rate you can live with in peak season.
Multi-colour 3D figures
Add optional 3D figure depositors and the line produces hollow figures in two or more colours — the detail work (eyes, decorations, colour panels) deposited before the main shell is spun. It is the difference between selling a hollow egg and selling a character, at a character’s price point.
Capacity
| Configuration | Output |
|---|---|
| 1 mould per holder | 5 moulds/minute |
| 2 moulds per holder | 10 moulds/minute |
The dual-mould holder doubles output with no additional floor space — specify it up front if seasonal peaks are your business model.
Standard stations
- Mould heating tunnel
- Chocolate depositor with vibration
- Mould closing unit
- Mould reversing unit
- Spinner group
- Mould opening unit
- Capsule feeding group
- Shell heating tunnel
- Cooling tunnel feeding system and cooling tunnel
- Line feeder
- Mould opening group
- Vacuum system mould unloading group
Note the last station: demoulding is vacuum-assisted, because hollow products that survived spinning shouldn’t break at unloading.
Optional stations
- 3D figure depositor with vibration and horizontal cooling tunnel
- Granule-type feeding unit
Hollow production is a niche, and we are happy to talk you through it honestly — including whether your volumes justify the line. Bring your seasonal forecast.
