When producing chocolate production, melting and dispensing are two of the most critical processes. Whether you’re using a machine for melting chocolate, a machine to melt chocolate, or other chocolate making machinery, it is essential to maintain regularly, which can ensure smooth operation, consistent product quality, and extended equipment lifespan. Therefore, at Gondor Machinery, we design and manufacture the melted chocolate dispenser with user-friendly maintenance in mind. Here are the most common concerns from customers and our expert maintenance recommendations for chocolate melting and dispensing equipment.
Are the Melting Tank and Discharge Pipes Easy to Clean?
Absolutely. At Gondor, all our machines for melting chocolate are engineered for hygiene, safety, and easy cleaning. Here’s how we make maintenance easier:
Modular, Detachable Parts
The lid, agitator, and discharge valve can be removed quickly without tools, which allows for thorough cleaning.
Quick-connect Pipes
The discharge system features easy plug-in connections for rapid detachment and cleaning.
Warm Water Cleaning Support
Tanks and pipes support warm water flushing, and some models include built-in auto-cleaning heat cycles.
Food-grade 304 Stainless Steel
All contact parts are made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel with a smooth interior for effortless cleaning.
Rounded Inner Corners
The inner tank features seamless corners that prevent residue buildup and reduce the risk of bacterial growth.
Cleaning Frequency
We recommend cleaning the machine after each production cycle with warm water (40–50°C) to avoid solidified chocolate blockage.
Is the Equipment Prone to Blockage? Does It Include a Filter?
As we all know, preventing blockages is the key to efficient chocolate production. Our machines to melt chocolate include advanced anti-blocking designs:
- Intelligent Temperature Control: Maintains a consistent chocolate temperature between 30–60°C to ensure smooth flow.
- Built-in Multi-layer Filters: Filters remove unmelted particles or impurities before the chocolate enters the dispenser or mold.
- Heated Nozzles and Discharge Valves: Prevent clogging at the outlet by maintaining temperature during dispensing.
- Clog Detection and Alarm: Some advanced models detect blockages automatically and stop operation to prevent equipment damage.
- Agitation & Circulation Heating: Integrated stirring and loop heating systems keep chocolate uniform, reducing the chance of clumps or sediment.
- Removable Spray Nozzles: Nozzles can be detached and cleaned easily, minimizing downtime during maintenance.
