Tempering machines are at the heart of a chocolate processing system.

The well proven Sollich Turbotemper® Champ results in optimum shine, long shelf-life, good snap and a heat-resistant product for pure chocolate as well as chocolate containing a high proportion of milk fat or cocoa butter equivalents (CBE’s) or even pure cocoa butter.

The range includes:

• Minitemper® Turbo TF
  Range for tempering of 100-300 kg/h with integrated refrigeration
• Turbotemper® Champ TCN
  Machines are available for tempering from 50 to 12,000 kg/h.
• Turbotemper® Champ TCD
  The same as the TCN but with an integral de-crystallization zone (which can also be used as a compensation zone)
• Turbotemper® Champ Type TCB
  Machine is available for tempering outputs from 200 to 1,600 kg/h. The "B" version is equipped with a chocolate vibrating sieve, chocolate feed tank with level control, adjustable chocolate feed pump, a de-crystallization stage plus the 3 stage Turbotemper®.
• Turbotemper® TCB 50 and TCB 150
  These are the "minis" among the Turbotempers for outputs from 30 to 150 kg/h.
• Turbotemper® Champ Airo
  Used for tempering and aerating in one machine for chocolate with visible bubbles.
• Nugat-Temper
  For tempering and plasticizing of extrudable nougat or praline compounds.

There is also a complete range of ancillary equipment for tempering including:

• Tempermeter E4
• Chocolate tanks
• Chocolate pumps

The post-crystallization of chocolate in the cooling tunnel has an importance which is often underestimated. For this reason, SOLLICH offers a range of cooling tunnels for an optimum crystal structure in the shortest possible cooling time. Efficient center cooling and the forced cooling of bakery products are specialist areas of SOLLICH, too. The range also includes complete wash-down tunnels.

Available tunnel widths range from 320 to 2600 mm in standard execution:

• Type KK THERMO-FLOW®
  This centre cooling tunnel is specially designed for cooling product fillings and slab cooling in high-output production lines. This cooling tunnel operates with more intense convection cooling from above and intensive cold water contact cooling below
• Type KS THERMO-FLOW®
  This cooling tunnel is the solution offered by SOLLICH for particularly delicate products with Cold water cooling from above (radiation cooling) and below (cold water contact cooling)
• Type KSK THERMO-FLOW®
  This cooling tunnel is the high-performance cooling tunnel for chocolate coatings in the SOLLICH range. The combination of radiation and convection cooling from above and cold water contact cooling from beneath enables optimum quality to be achieved in the shortest possible cooling times
• Type LSK THERMO-FLOW®
  This cooling tunnel from SOLLICH is a universal cooling tunnel with air. Contact cooling from beneath and radiation or convection cooling from above ensures optimum conditions for each product.
• Stainless Steel Cooling Tunnels
  These are fully wash-down rated. For machine widths in excess of 1300 mm, hoods which open outwards from the center are available (Gullwing).

Chocotech also offer a range of simple Cooling Tunnels.
