Hebenstreit supplies production systems for flat and hollow
wafers that range from semi-automatic lines with a capacity of about 120 kg/h
to fully automatic, high-efficiency lines rated at 1,200 kg/h and more.
The extent of the product range begins with raw material
dosing and mixing systems for the preparation of wafer batters and extends to
the fully automatic conveying of the cut, cream-filled wafers to subsequent packaging machines,
coating plants or moulding lines.
As early as 1898, baking machines were manufactured in the
factory in Radebeul near Dresden.
However, since the company’s re-incorporation in 1950, the headquarters are now
located in a nearby suburb of Frankfurt/Main, Germany.
Many high-profile
companies form part of Hebenstreit’s clientele, with the world’s most popular wafer products produced on its
systems.
Each wafer production system is “tailor-made” according to
the individual requirements of the customer. They are designed depending on the
type of product required, capacity, grade of automation and existing production
facilities. In addition, high-quality products in many cases demand the
development of custom-engineered machines.
As a matter of principle, maximum operating safety and the
incorporation of the latest technological improvement - be they mechanical or electrical - remain
critical components of every Hebenstreit production system.
Such continual self-improvement minimizes “down time.” For example,
all clutch/brake units have been replaced by frequency-controlled drives or
servo drives. Consequently, production interruptions because of maintenance
requirements or normal wear and tear are minimized.
Hebenstreit guarantees excellence post-sales service,
supported by a network of more than 60 representatives worldwide, as well as 25
highly experienced service engineers.

Petzholdt-Heidenauer Maschinen- und Anlagenbau International GmbH has
been developing and manufacturing special machines for cocoa processing and
chocolate mass production for more than 170 years. It is one of the leading manufacturers of
five-roll refiners in the field of chocolate mass production.
With
innovations, such as our fineness measuring device HMB, the company has enabled
its customers to use five-roll refiners at higher levels of automation and
efficiency as well as providing even more uniform results. The company’s line
of HFS180S five-roll refiners have attained noticeable increases in output.
Typically, fineness
and throughput depend on the size of the last gap and the transport rate of
speed through that gap. By retaining the same size fineness on the same final
gap, increased throughput can be achieved by increasing the width of the roll
or by increasing the transport rate of speed through the final gap.
An increase
of roll width means, aside from increased space requirement, reduced mechanical
rigidity of the rolls and thus possible limitations in the range of recipes and
the fineness grades that can be processed.
The
transport rate of speed may be increased by using a higher rotation speed or by
increasing the diameter of the roll. The rotation speed cannot be increased
significantly beyond today’s usual levels because of increasing centrifugal
forces and the resulting increased spin-off of chocolate mass particles from
the roll surface, as well as the thermal stability of the rolls.
An increase
of the roll diameters, on the other hand, allows higher transport rates of
speed in the final gap, i.e. higher throughput while simultaneously limiting
centrifugal forces to a level more compatible with refining of chocolate mass.
Thus, a larger roll diameter has a positive impact on thermal conditions, among
other things, because of the larger roll surface area for cooling, as well as
the mechanical stability of the rolls.
The
footprint and, thus the required floor space, is the same as that of our familiar
HFS five-roll refiners, which facilitates the replacement of existing machinery
with the same working width in the same place without any problem.
Using the
same floor space and with a machine height increased by just 200 mm, our new
HFS Super five-roll refiners achieve a significantly higher throughput at
unchanged rates of fineness compared to our previous HFS refiners.

The evolution of Carle &
Montanari (SACMI Group) continues with new integrated solutions for the
chocolate industry, from cocoa processing to chocolate mass preparation,
moulding and packaging. At interpack 2011, the company will also debut its T-PACK2
electronic wrapper for chocolate bars and tablets.
The new machine is designed to
reach 200 ppm wrapping speed and can manipulate chocolate bars and tablets
ranging from 100 to 300 grams. The hermetically closed packaging, with internal
heat-sealed aluminum and external folded paper, guarantees the highest product
quality.
Other innovative solutions that
were recently introduced by the company include the following:
• The CAVEMIL “R” new family of
moulding lines, featuring an impressive flexibility and an innovative moulds
movement technology. This new line allows customers to maximize production by
using moulds of different sizes (for eggs, bar and pralines) on the same
moulding line.
• The sixth series of the MLR rotary depositors and the latest
version of the MEP piston depositor,
with removable head execution, represent the company’s newest line of chocolate
depositors. Available from 275 mm to 1,700 mm dosable surfaces, all of the
depositors are universal, which enable all dosing technologies (points, ribbon,
one-shot points and one-shot ribbon). Multi-head versions (Multicenter) are available for triple-shot and co-depositing
capabilities.
• The new BV Counter-moulds Buffering System, FIFO
(first in, first out) buffer for moulding lines, help customers efficiently
handle micro-stops of their packaging lines during production runs.
The new buffer offers an entirely
new way of stocking products directly on their demoulding counter-plates. In
addition to tablets, bars and pralines, the system can buffer book-moulded
products such as eggs, various moulded shapes and balls.
When the packaging line
re-starts, the stocked counter-moulds filled with products are sent to
packaging, while empty counter-moulds replace them in the buffering cabinet.
• Since the
successful debut of the new HFI series
of five-roll refiners two years ago, the company has expanded the line’s range
with a HFI 525 that features a 2,500-mm
roll length with an output of 1,600 kg/h of refined chocolate. The new machine goes to extend the
range of Carle & Montanari existing refiners, including the HFI518 (1800mm)
and the HFI513 (1300mm).
• Carle & Montanari’s legacy and experience in the manufacturing of
cocoa presses continues with ongoing technological developments, providing
innovative solutions to further increase the performance of the POV series machines and their ancillary
equipment.
• During
its 100 years of existence, Carle & Montanari has produced more than 1,500
moulding lines, many of which are still in production. Consequently, the
company has decided to allocate several resources and a dedicated team of
people to improve and extend the life of these existing moulding lines, improving products quality and introduce higher
flexibility and new categories of products.

Confectionery products, traditionally indulgent treats, face
growing demands today from consumers to provide nutritional and health benefits
as well as indulgent satisfaction. Consumers are increasingly aware of the need
to reduce sugar intake and increase their intake of fiber.
Traditionally fiber has not normally been considered as an
option for indulgent sweets, but with recent developments in soluble fiber
technology, this is no longer the case.
Roquette’s confectionery division offers ingredients, such
as SweetPearl maltitol and NUTRIOSE soluble fiber, for making
indulgent confections that are reduced sugar, no-sugar-added or sugar-free
while delivering the health benefits of added fiber.
NUTRIOSE can replace corn syrup in most confectionery
applications to produce both reduced sugar (NUTRIOSE/sucrose) and
sugar-free (NUTRIOSE/maltitol) confectionery products. In addition to
reducing sugar, NUTRIOSE also provides dietary fiber to your
applications
It is an excellent ingredient for making better-for-you hard
candies, being both heat stable to 350ºF and also acid stable down to pH 3.0.
This also ensures compatibility in acidic fruit-flavored candies with no loss
of fiber and without compromising taste. Its high solubility is only limited by
its viscosity (~100mPas @ 50% DS),
which is relatively low and makes it useable at high levels.
SweetPearl maltitol is the sugar substitute known for
being 90% as sweet as sucrose and easy to use in complete or partial
replacement of sucrose. In result, this ingredient may be used to make great
tasting sugar-free, no-sugar-added and reduced-sugar chocolate and compound
coatings as well as confectionary products such as chewing gum and hard –
boiled sweets.
SweetPearl - the
maltitol by Roquette – which comes from cereal sources, combines pleasure with
well-being: it has exceptional taste, contains few calories and doesn't require
added sugars and is even good for your teeth.
SweetPearl maltitol enhances and accentuates the flavor of each
ingredients, offering richer, more surprising and delightful taste sensation
for the taste buds. It’s no wonder why many leading manufacturers, artisans and
even top chefs are already using SweetPearl
for their own culinary creations!
