Product overview
A ball-mill machine engineered for chocolate and confectionery refining, providing controlled particle-size reduction and stable texture development. Jacketed design enables temperature control during grinding for consistent results across batches.

Key features

• Product-contact parts in SS304 or SS316 stainless steel
• Fine grinding down to 20–25 µm for uniform mouthfeel
• Jacketed vessel for coolant/heating circulation and temperature control
• cGMP-aligned hygienic design suitable for food production lines
• Available configurations for batch R&D or continuous production

Machine components and functionality

• Rotating cylinder filled with steel grinding media to crush and disperse particles
• Motor and gearbox to set rotation speed and grinding intensity
• Temperature controller and jacketed vessel to maintain target processing temperature
• Removable lid and access ports for inspection and cleaning
• Interfaces for integration with upstream melters and downstream conching or tempering equipment

Models & capacities

• Compact model — Batch capacity: 2–10 kg. Intended for R&D, pilot trials and small-scale product development.
• Production model — Batch capacity: 25–500 kg. Designed for large-scale refining with reproducible particle-size distribution.

Applications

• Dark, milk and white chocolate refining
• Nut pastes (hazelnut, almond) and inclusions
• Truffle and praline bases, ganaches and fillings
• Refining of creams and other chocolate-based formulations

Documentation & media
Technical datasheets and product brochures available for each model. Operation and trial videos demonstrate machine performance and typical processing runs.
