Machine overview
Water-jacketed industrial chocolate melting tanks that melt solid chocolate and hold it at workable temperature for downstream feeding. The molten chocolate is transferred by an integrated chocolate pump to tempering, forming, or coating equipment. Two model groups force one decision: input format. Cylindrical CMT models (CMT100, CMT200, CMT400, CMT600, CMT1000INS) accept callets, drops, and rework. CMT100–200 run on 220 V single-phase. CMT400 and CMT600 accept 220 V single-phase or 380 V three-phase. CMT1000INS requires 380 V three-phase and adds glass wool insulation, stainless steel lobe pump, and 1500-micron sieve filter. The rectangular CBM1000 uses a separate heated melting grid for solid chocolate blocks and requires 380 V three-phase. Loading solid blocks into a cylindrical CMT model risks agitator motor overload, mechanical impact on the tank bottom, and extended melt cycles. Loading callets into the CBM1000 means paying for a heated grid designed for solid blocks rather than free-flowing material.
