Frequently Asked Questions: Snickers & Composite Bar Production
How does TGMachine achieve the classic multi-layer (nougat + caramel) structure of Snickers?
We use a multi-stage rolling and forming process. The first set of spreading rollers evenly lays down the nougat layer. A second system then applies the peanut-caramel layer. Precise pressure control ensures tight bonding between the two layers with minimal thickness variation.
How are peanuts evenly distributed within the caramel layer?
The line is equipped with a Continuous Nut Mixing System. Prior to injection into the forming machine, this system automatically and uniformly mixes roasted peanuts with caramel syrup in a set ratio, guaranteeing consistent nut content in every bar.
Caramel and nougat are very sticky. How do you address sticking during cutting?
Our Slitting & Guillotine Cutting System features:
- Ultrasonic Cutting (Optional): Reduces sticking, provides clean cuts, and minimizes product deformation.
- Teflon-coated Blades: Paired with a cooling circulation system to prevent hot caramel from adhering to the blades.
- Automatic Spacing: Automatically creates gaps between cut bars before they enter the chocolate enrobing machine.
Can your Enrobing machine achieve both full and bottom-only coating?
Our enrobing machine features a multi-function pump control system that enables full coating, top-only coverage, or bottom-only coating. The bottom scraper system precisely controls the coating thickness on the underside. When combined with a cold-air tunnel, it ensures rapid chocolate setting and a high gloss.
What equipment is included in a complete Snickers production line?
TGMachine provides a full turnkey solution:
- Kitchen System: Nougat aerating cooker, caramel cooking machine.
- Forming Section: Spreader, cooling tunnel, Slitting & Guillotine Cutting machines.
- Post-Processing: Chocolate enrobing machine, cooling tunnel, aligning/conveying system, and automatic sorting&packaging line.
How do you ensure product dimensional consistency at high speeds?
The entire line employs a full servo-drive system, with all sections synchronized by a central PLC. Key parameters such as layer thickness and cut length can be fine-tuned in real time via the touchscreen, achieving millisecond-level precision.
Can this line also produce Cereal Bars or Protein Bars?
It offers high flexibility. By adjusting the feeding hoppers and pressure rollers, the line is fully capable of producing functional protein bars or cereal/granola bars. This true “multi-purpose machine” approach helps lower investment risk.
What is your maximum production capacity?
Our industrial-grade lines have a working width ranging from 600mm to 1200mm. Maximum output ranges from 500 kg/h to 1500 kg/h, depending on the product specifications.
