Scrap Chocolate & Wafer Recycling Line
This project encompasses a recycling line that enables chocolate and wafer scraps separated during the production process to be ground in a controlled manner and converted into a format suitable for reuse in production. Through hygienic open product conveying systems and automation-controlled structure, a safe, traceable, and sustainable process has been created.
Food production – chocolate and wafer lines
Hygienic waste recovery and grinding line
Grinding machine, open product conveyors, metal detector control point
Waste collection → Grinding → Open product conveying → Reuse feed
Line Structure and Applied Solution
Waste chocolate and wafer scraps are ground to the desired granule size in the grinding machine and returned to the production process. Ground products are transported via conveyor systems suitable for hygienic open product conveying and completely washable. The line design is planned to provide maximum hygiene and minimum product loss in space-constrained facilities.
Precise Control in Flow Management
Product flow after grinding is monitored and controlled by a PLC-based automation system. Capacity and safety parameters are managed centrally. A metal detector positioned on the line detects unsuitable or foreign metal-containing pieces and removes them from the system via an automatic reject mechanism. This structure ensures quality assurance in the recovery process.
