This versatile, compact unit is used for high output jelly and gummy production, and low to medium output of hard candy. It brings the benefits of very low energy use for jelly cooking and provides a simple, single-stage process for hard candy.
The Turbofilm is a skid-mounted plate heat exchanger cooker containing everything necessary to cook jellies or hard candy. By combining continuous dissolving and cooking of syrups into a single, compact module, it brings the benefits of very low energy use for jelly cooking and provides a simple, single-stage process for hard candy. If confectioners need versatility, there is simple changeover between the two product types.
Products that can be handled include sugar & sugar free hard candy syrups, pectin, starch/gelatine, gelatine and starch based jelly syrups. The unit is not recommended for products containing milk, or any ingredient containing milk protein.
Efficient production of jellies and hard candy
Jellies: a plate heat exchanger reduces the moisture content to the required level, with minimum use of energy.
Hard candy: a plate heat exchanger is used to dissolve the sugar. It is then cooked, and a flash vessel used to attain the desired moisture level by allowing the vapor to separate from the syrup atmospherically.
Easy to install and operate
Turbofilm systems are designed for easy installation and maximum efficiency. As the unit combines dissolving and cooking operations in one compact machine, there is minimal cleaning and maintenance. Controls can be either stand alone or integrated with upstream and downstream systems.
Cost-effective system for low to medium outputs
In lower output situations, the Turbofilm is a cost-effective alternative to the Baker Perkins Microfilm cooking system for hard candy. The unit can be sized for production of any output between 100 kg/hr up to a maximum of 1,000kg/hr.
