Australian Customer Reorders After Year-Long Comparison: Tail-Free Double-Layer Chocolate Coating We are proud to share a new success story from Australia. A local confectionery manufacturer producing chocolate-covered raspberries with a double-layer chocolate coating has become one of our most valuable returning customers — and the reason is simple: our enrobing line simply performs better. Customer Background The client specializes in premium chocolate-coated fruit confectionery, with raspberry products coated in two layers of chocolate as their signature line — a white chocolate base layer topped with a dark chocolate layer. To scale up production, they needed a reliable, precise enrobing system that could deliver a clean, uniform coating at commercial speed. The First Purchase Last year, the customer purchased a complete enrobing line from us: 60kg small chocolate coater Conveyor belt 60kg small chocolate coater (second coating stage) 3.2m cooling tunnel This configuration was designed for double-layer chocolate coating of raspberries — the first coater applies a white chocolate base layer, the second coater applies a dark chocolate top layer, and the cooling tunnel sets the finish. At the same time, the customer also bought similar equipment from another manufacturer for a side-by-side comparison. Watch the first-year enrobing line in action: 60kg small chocolate enrobing line with conveyor and 3.2m cooling tunnel The Year-Long Comparison Over a full year of production, the customer ran both machines under the same conditions and compared the results. The outcome was clear: Coating finish: our line delivered a clean, smooth, professional finish, while the competitor equipment showed visible defects. "Chocolate tail" formation: our products came out tail-free, while the competitor's finished products frequently had tails. Production reliability: our line performed consistently throughout the year. According to the customer, the most impressive difference was that our machine produced chocolate-coated raspberries without any "chocolate tails" — the unwanted chocolate drips or tails that form when the coating does not cut cleanly. This not only improved the appearance of the finished product but also reduced waste and rework. The Reorder Based on this proven performance, the customer returned this year and ordered two complete enrobing lines to expand production: Automatic feeding system 400mm wide large chocolate coater 3m cooling tunnel 400mm wide large chocolate coater 6m cooling tunnel The new order — two sets of auto-feed + 400mm wide large coater + 3m cooling tunnel + 400mm wide large coater + 6m cooling tunnel — represents a significant capacity upgrade and a strong vote of confidence in our equipment. Watch the reordered large enrobing line in action: 400mm wide large chocolate enrobing line with 3m and 6m cooling tunnels Why Customers Choose Us This case demonstrates what we deliver on every project: Precision coating technology that eliminates chocolate tails and delivers a clean finish Complete line solutions from feeding to coating to cooling Proven reliability in real production environments Long-term value that turns first-time buyers into repeat customers We thank our Australian customer for their trust and look forward to supporting their continued growth. If you are looking for a chocolate enrobing line that delivers clean, tail-free results, we invite you to experience the same difference.

Project Background A customer in the United Kingdom planned to install a 10-meter cooling tunnel for their cookie and egg-based products. However, due to limited workshop length, a standard straight cooling tunnel could not fit into the existing production layout. To solve this challenge, the customer proposed a concept for a turning cooling tunnel, allowing products to change direction during cooling while maintaining continuous operation. Customer Requirements Total cooling length of 10 meters Adaptation to limited factory space Products to enter from Conveyor A and exit from Conveyor B Smooth and stable transfer between conveyors Ability to visually monitor products during operation Our Customized Solution Based on the customer’s idea and production requirements, we designed and manufactured a customized turning cooling tunnel with the following features: Two straight cooling conveyors connected by a turning conveyor in the middle, allowing a smooth 90-degree product transfer Continuous cooling process while changing direction, ensuring stable product flow Optimized airflow and temperature distribution throughout the cooling tunnel Glass observation windows installed along the tunnel, enabling operators to clearly observe product movement and cooling conditions in real time This customized design allowed the customer to achieve the required cooling length without extending the workshop, making full use of the available space. Results and Customer Feedback After installation and testing, the cooling tunnel operated smoothly and met all production expectations. Products moved steadily from Conveyor A, through the turning section, and exited via Conveyor B with no disruption to product quality or line efficiency. The customer was very satisfied with the finished cooling tunnel, especially appreciating: The flexible turning design Stable and continuous operation Clear visibility of products through the glass windows The successful realization of their original concept The customer provided highly positive feedback, confirming that the customized cooling tunnel fully met their production and layout needs. Conclusion This project demonstrates our ability to deliver custom-engineered cooling tunnel solutions based on specific customer requirements. By closely collaborating with the UK customer and translating their idea into a reliable, production-ready system, we successfully solved a space-limitation challenge while maintaining performance and product quality. Customized cooling tunnels with turning conveyors offer an effective solution for manufacturers facing layout constraints, especially in European production facilities where space optimization is critical.

A customer from Lithuania planned to produce date balls and raised an important concern during the initial discussion:their raw material was quite hard, and they were worried that the machine might not be able to process it properly. The customer first considered testing a machine locally. However, due to strict factory access policies in Lithuania, local manufacturers did not allow external personnel to enter their factories, making local trials impossible. To fully address the customer’s concern, we proposed a practical and reliable solution: The customer sent their raw materials to China We arranged a test run strictly according to the customer’s own recipe During the test, our machine handled the hard raw materials smoothly, with stable forming performance and consistent product appearance. The complete testing process and results were shared with the customer, giving them full confidence in the machine’s capability. The customer was very satisfied with the test results.Based on their production target of 120 date balls per minute, we recommended and supplied two complete production lines to meet their capacity requirements. This successful cooperation demonstrates how real material testing and customized solutions help customers make confident purchasing decisions.

Customer Background & Challenges Customer Name:  Pet Food Company, Australia Business Nature: Specializing in the development and production of high-end natural pet foodCore Product: Additive-Free Chicken Breast Dog Food (100% natural formula, no preservatives or artificial additives) Pain Points Low Production EfficiencyReliance entirely on manual operations resulted in a daily output of only 500 kg with 8 workers, making it difficult to achieve scale.
