Ball-shaped Food Weighing and Filling System (Chocolate Balls Specialized) | High-Speed Dual-Outlet Automated Canning Line

Customer Pain Points

• ·Severe product appearance damage: Crisp chocolate coating and smooth surface of chocolate balls are easily scratched, worn or dented during traditional conveying and weighing, leading to high scrap rates, product grade downgrades and loss of premium market pricing power

• ·Unstable weighing accuracy: Spherical materials are prone to rolling and shifting, causing large weight deviation with standard weighing equipment, resulting in massive overfilling raw material loss or underfilling non-compliance with global retail net content regulations

• ·Serious coating melting & sticking risk: Friction and heat buildup in traditional equipment cause chocolate coating to melt, deform and stick together, leading to irreversible product scrapping and production downtime

• ·Production capacity bottleneck: Single-station filling lines have slow output speed, unable to meet large-volume order demands and peak season production requirements

• ·Heavy labor dependency: Dispersed manual can handling, filling, capping processes require intensive on-site labor, driving up operational costs, increasing human error and food safety contamination risks

• ·Long changeover downtime: Complex adjustment for different can sizes, ball diameters and filling weights leads to long production halts, reducing overall equipment efficiency for multi-SKU production

• ·Food safety compliance risks: Hard-to-clean equipment structures fail to meet FDA, GMP and HACCP international food safety standards, creating critical barriers for cross-border premium food export business

Our Integrated Turnkey Solution

Solution Units

1. ·20-head 1.6L Multihead Weigher (AB Dual Scale Mode): Spherical material optimized high-precision weigher, supporting independent dual 10-head AB scale operation. It enables simultaneous weighing of two batches of materials, perfectly matching the dual-outlet filling demand, with anti-rolling hopper design to eliminate weighing deviation caused by material movement

2. ·1.8L Vibrating Feeder + Z-type Bucket Elevator: Integrated scratch-free feeding system. The vibrating feeder delivers uniform, controllable material supply, while the fully enclosed Z-type bucket elevator adopts soft-contact bucket design to convey chocolate balls without collision, scratching or coating damage

3. ·Food-grade Supporting Platform: Stable 304 stainless steel ergonomic working platform, providing secure support for the multihead weigher, and easy access for daily operation, cleaning and maintenance

4. ·Dual-outlet Polygonal Collection Hopper: Smooth inner-wall anti-sticking collection hopper, fully synchronized with the AB dual scale system. It enables simultaneous, accurate and damage-free discharging of two batches of weighed materials, perfectly matching the dual-can filling rhythm of the rotary machine

5. ·12-station Automatic Rotary Machine (Integrated Can Dropping, Filling, Cap Loading, Capping): All-in-one high-efficiency rotary mainframe, integrating automatic can dropping, precise filling positioning, cap feeding, and secure capping into 12 continuous stations. It realizes real-time signal synchronization with the front-end weigher, ensuring non-stop continuous automated production

Automated Production Workflow

1. ·Operators manually pour chocolate ball materials into the hopper of the integrated vibrating feeder, and the Z-type bucket elevator gently lifts the materials into the upper feed hopper of the multihead weigher in a fully enclosed, scratch-free structure.

2. ·The multihead weigher operates in dual 10-head AB scale mode, simultaneously weighing two batches of materials to the corresponding dual collection hoppers, waiting for the discharge request signal from the filling machine, and preparing for simultaneous filling of two cans.

3. ·The 12-station rotary machine completes automatic can dropping, precise positioning under the filling hopper, synchronous dual-can filling, automatic cap loading, secure capping in sequence, and the finished products are finally output through the outfeed conveyor line.

Final Results & Core Benefits

• ·Near-zero product appearance damage: Full-process gentle anti-scratch handling reduces chocolate ball coating damage rate to below 0.2%, fully preserving the premium appearance and market value of your products

• ·Industry-leading weighing accuracy: Spherical material optimized dual scale system controls weight deviation within ±0.1g, eliminating overfilling raw material loss and ensuring 100% compliance with global retail net content regulations

• ·Doubled production efficiency: AB dual scale dual-outlet synchronous design, matched with 12-station rotary machine, achieves a filling speed of 80-120 cans per minute (depending on can specifications and filling weight). It doubles output compared with single-station lines, increases production capacity by 6-8 times compared with semi-manual lines, and reduces on-site labor demand by 90%

• ·Zero coating melting & sticking risk: Low-friction smooth food-grade structure with no heat buildup design completely avoids chocolate coating melting, deformation and sticking, drastically reducing product scrap rate

• ·Full global food safety compliance: Full line adopts 304 food-grade stainless steel with quick-disassembly structure for easy cleaning, fully meeting FDA, GMP and HACCP international premium food safety standards, removing all export barriers

• ·Ultra-fast flexible changeover: Tool-free parameter adjustment and quick-change parts complete can size, filling weight and product specification changeover within 10 minutes, perfectly adapting to multi-SKU, small-batch multi-batch production needs

• ·Stable low-cost operation: Integrated synchronized control system reduces unplanned downtime, and user-friendly design simplifies daily maintenance and operator training, supporting 24/7 continuous stable production to meet peak season demand
