Chocolate

Customisation and attention to detail for the highest product quality 

In the processing and transformation of chocolate from cocoa bean to liquid chocolate, it is crucial to preserve the organoleptic characteristics of the raw material to ensure the highest quality of the finished products, including pralines, cakes, biscuits, eggs and bars.  

More specifically, precision and attention during the storage and transport of chocolate is essential in order not to alter its organoleptic properties.  

Piovan Group provides specific and highly customised solutions for the storage and transport of chocolate, guaranteeing maximum attention to detail. Specifically, the geometry and accurate internal surface finish of the silos, equipped with internal stirrerpumps and load cells, ensure the easy flow of chocolate. Furthermore, double jacket conveying solutions guarantee the conservation of the correct viscosity and maximum safety during the transport of the food ingredient. Piovan Group also designs and manufactures machinery for the addition of additives and inclusions, to add to chocolate in a controlled and precise manner. 

The consolidated experience of the Group in the confectionery sector, combined with a capillary technical assistance service, ensures constant proximity to the customer worldwide. All Piovan Group machines for chocolate processing are characterised, moreover, by easy access and maintenance and by guaranteeing maximum levels of safety. 

HIGH CUSTOMISATION
MAXIMUM ATTENTION TO DETAIL
GLOBAL PRESENCE

Storage, transport, dosing and sieving are just some of the food ingredient processing stages in which Penta and Fea, the Piovan Group companies specialising in automation systems for the processing of food ingredients, operate.  

Flour cooling

Sieving

Sieving

ROBUST, EFFECTIVE AND EASY TO INSPECT SIEVES
Industrial sieving of food ingredients is essential to ensure the quality of the finished product. This process ensures the correct size of the product in transit and eliminates any contaminants or impurities larger than the sieve drum screen itself.

Dosing

Dosing

ACCURATE DOSING AND EASY CLEANING
In food ingredient handling processes, accurate dosing of powders and granular products is essential. PiovanGroup designs a range of loss-in-weight dosers that guarantee absolute dosing precision thanks to a spherical arc. These dosing machines provide, with reference to the relevant recipe, the correct quantity of raw material that can be mixed or directly discharged into the primary operating machines. It is also possible to create a premix between different ingredients, through continuous dosing.

Supervision and Process Control

Supervision and Process Control

PLANT MANAGEMENT AND SUPERVISION SYSTEMS
As in other industrial sectors, as well as in the food sector, to guarantee maximum production efficiency it is necessary to have complete control of the process, in all its phases.

Dehumidification

CLEAN, DRY AIR FOR FOOD PRODUCTION
In the food industry, constant monitoring of the relative humidity level of the air is essential to ensure the highest quality of the finished product. Dehumidifying the ambient air with the highest degree of hygiene is crucial for the transport and storage of ingredients such as flour, cocoa, milk and flavourings. With particular reference to hygroscopic substances, it is essential that the product humidity is as desired for production under all environmental conditions.

Transport

Transport

DENSE AND DILUTE PHASE TRANSPORT WITH PRE-MIXING OPTIONS
PiovanGroup industrial conveying systems are developed according to engineering design standards for a hygienic and safe process. These solutions are specifically designed and manufactured for the handling of food powders and viscous liquids, including flour, sugar, cocoa, honey, starch and inclusions. Specifically, the Group's conveying systems also allow ingredients to be pre-mixed during their handling.
