Our semi automatic vacuum cookers deliver high-quality boiled sugar or isomalt syrups, essential for high quality candy production. They produce a silky-smooth, crystal-clear result. The cooker has a capacity of 500kg per hour. All the settings such as production quantity, vacuum, cooking temperature, cooking duration, and sugar batch weight can be conveniently adjusted.

How It Works

The cookers’ primary function is to continuously cook sugar or glucose solution under controlled conditions at atmospheric pressure. This process goes through a few steps: initial cooking of the sugar solution, final cooking, boiling vapour extraction, and transferring the cooked sugar under vacuum to a swivelling pan.

The cooker, along with driving components, the piston pump, the stand with the discharge pans, and other auxiliary equipment, are all securely mounted on a robust base. You can seamlessly adjust the sugar pump’s delivery rate with the help of a variable speed pump. An electric motor drives the sugar pump.

The initially cooked sugar solution is pushed by an adjustable piston pump from a holding tank into the cooking coil of the steam chest. Here, it’s cooked down and concentrated. The thickened sugar syrup then moves into a vapour extraction chamber, where almost all boiling vapours are removed, making sure the resulting sugar is super-dry and smooth.

After the vapours have been expelled, the sugar then goes through an adjustable needle valve into a swivelling pan for vacuum treatment. There’s always enough cooked sugar in the intermediary chamber to maintain the vacuum seal.

You can adjust the batch size continuously. The swivelling of the discharge pan is by gravity. Once filled, the discharge pan can be detached from the vacuum chamber at timed intervals.

The process is then repeated with no need for an operator to manually change over the pans. It’s a system designed for efficiency and user convenience.
