The mix of your cereal bar ingredients will affect flavor, mouthfeel and ease of eating. Our mixing technology includes recipe-controlled dosing, weighing and mixing to ensure total consistency. The easy-to-clean design ensures fast changeovers between products.

 

Forming

Creating an even slab

Cereal bars usually rely on slab forming technology to create a large homogenous mass, ready for cutting. We offer a range of slab forming options for pressure-sensitive or aerated products and a three-roller system for forming consistent slab densities.

 

Cooling

Cooling your slab

Fast controlled cooling  is imperative for high quality and a high yield. The cooling temperature can be adjusted to suit different product characteristics. Moisture is kept away from your production areas and ensures a perfect cooling result.

Cutting

Creating the bar shape

Anyone who works with cereal bars knows that the final cutting can be challenging. We strand slitters fanning belts, guillotine cutter to meet your precise application, on virtually any scale.

Finalizing the product

Enrobed products are extremely sensitive to changing temperatures. They melt when it is too warm and cool too quickly under drafty conditions. With our tempering machines, coatings achieve the ideal crystallization. The final step is the cooling process with our universal chocolate cooling tunnel.
