To assist confectionary manufacturers Wymbs Engineering has available a range of test manifolds and a standalone 'Mini Wymbs' depositing mechanism. These tools will allow the development of new products and the improvement of existing products without the expenditure of purchasing new depositing equipment for development purposes. The equipment can be either supplied on its own or can be accompanied with one of our development technicians to assist you.
These development tools are intended for product development kitchens and existing processing lines that are equipped with a continuous mixer. All of the test manifolds have set nozzle configurations although all production manifold types have been designed to allow the customer to define elements like nozzle pitch, manifold length nozzle type depending on their exact depositing requirements.
Pressurised Manifold
Suitable for depositing pumpable mass under system pressure taken directly from a continuous mixer or pump.
Volumetric Manifold
This test volumetric manifold is capable of depositing pumpable mass by volume using both air actuators or servo motor controlled pistons depending on accuracy required. Products deposited include
Chocolate
Gassed choc
Cream
2 Colour Encapsulated Manifold
This manifold is based on the pressurised manifold range which takes pressurised product directly from a continuous mixer with the added feature of allowing a fill to be deposited inside the main product in the same cycle.
Titanium Pressurised Manifold
There are applications that deposit products that can corrode manifolds that are constructed in aluminium and are physically too large to be manufactured from stainless steel, the performance of our titanium manifolds can be realised with our pressurised titanium manifold which is based on a 5 nozzle output with individual balancing valves
Striping Manifold
Our striping test manifold can allow products which require a decorative stripe to be trialed, various slot sizes and widths can be catered for to suit individual requirements. This manifold is ideal for topping stripes on chocolate eclairs and similar products.
Mini Wymbs 2 Axis Development Machine
Our 'Mini Wymbs' development machine is a standalone 2-Axis depositor with conveyor. The overall machine is based on a small portable footprint that can be used in conjunction with our test manifolds to allow trials to conducted that will produce results the same as that on a full scale production line. Using our latest controls coupled with a manifold a vast range of shapes can be deposited onto the moving conveyor thus proving any concept and proving to the customer that the project is achievable before capital is committed.
