High capacity and precise insertion

The servo motor in the inserter ensures high guaranteed capacity up to 200 sticks a minute, which is faster than conventional manual or pneumatic piston solutions. The uniform, repeatable servo action ensures high accuracy for more consistent product quality.

Sensor-based automation

Sensor-based automation

Lower risk of downtime and product waste

A sensor in the stick magazine measures stick presence and alerts the operator via a graphic panel if the magazine runs low. The operator can then fill the magazine in time before a stoppage occurs.

The art of extrusion

If you're planning to produce novelty ice creams or 'Disney' characters, extrusion is the way to go. Extrusion is the method whereby ice cream is forced out through a tube and sliced into sections with a wire. It enables the creation of complex designs.

Our ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​extrusion equipment is almost twice as fast as our competitors​ and it integrates the production units you need, all the way from raw material input to product wrapping.
