How to Produce Variety Cotton Candy?

一. Composition of the Marshmallow Production Line

OrangeMech's marshmallow line is generally composed of a boiling system, a beating system, a forming system, and a recycling system.

1. Boiling system: consisting of a sugar boiling tank and a cooling mixing tank.

1) Sugar pot: Electric heating, steam heating, and electromagnetic heating can be selected according to needs.

2) Cooling mixing tank: adopting a sandwich design, using cold water for cooling, and adding and mixing auxiliary materials after cooling.

2.Spoiler system: composed of a storage tank, a mixer, and a hot and cold water integrated machine.

1)Storage tank: Maintain the temperature and fluidity of the sugar solution by heating.

2)Dispenser: The boiled sugar liquid is mixed, sheared and emulsified with air at high speed to form a uniform, delicate and stable foam structure.

3)The integrated hot and cold water machine is responsible for controlling the temperature of the cooling system.

3. Molding system: The molding system is composed of a pigment essence adding station, extrusion mechanism, cooling conveyor, powder spreading mechanism, and cutting mechanism.

1) Pigment essence adding station: Pigment and essence can be changed according to production demand, and cotton candy with different flavors can be produced.

2) Extrusion mechanism: It is responsible for the key of casting and molding marshmallow, which can be used to make multicolor fried dough twist braids and various shapes of marshmallow.

3) Cooling Conveyor: Responsible for conveying the extruded cotton candy to the cutting mechanism while conducting natural cooling during transportation.

4) Powder-spreading mechanism: responsible for spreading starch on the conveyor belt to prevent cotton candy from sticking to the conveyor belt.

5) Cutting mechanism: Cut the entire marshmallow into the desired length.

Recycling system: composed of a vibrating screen and powder collection elevator.

1) Vibration screen: Separate cotton candy and starch through vibration.

2) Powder elevator: Lift the separated starch into the hopper for reuse, saving production costs.

三. The production process of cotton candy production line

Detailed Explanation of how marshmallows are made in a factory: How are various types of marshmallows produced in a factory?

1. Water, syrup, and granulated sugar are mixed in a specific ratio and boiled and stirred in a sugar boiling tank.

2. The boiled sugar syrup is poured into a cooling mixing tank and cooled to approximately 70°C. Gelatin is then added and stirred.

3. Feed the completely dissolved and well‑stirred syrup into the insulated storage tank.

4. The sugar syrup is fed into a whipping machine, where it undergoes high-speed mixing, shearing, and emulsification with air to create a uniform, fine, and stable foam structure.

5. The whipped sugar syrup passes through a coloring and flavoring addition station, where the desired flavor and color are added before it enters the extruder.

6. After the extruder extrudes marshmallow strips, they are dusted with powder, conveyed, cooled, and then reach the cutter.

7. The cutter speed is set according to the required length to cut the marshmallow.

Upon completion of the aforementioned processes, soft and delicious cotton candy is obtained. To produce diversified cotton candy products, various flavors and colors can be achieved by adding different colorants and flavorings. Meanwhile, a wide range of shapes can be formed by replacing extruder dies, including braided, heart-shaped, and various animal cartoon designs.

四. Precautions for Cotton Candy Production Line

1. Confirm that the voltage of the connected lines matches the production line.

2. Ensure all equipment connections are level to guarantee smooth, vibration-free operation.

3. Before production begins, check all machine connections for looseness. Tighten any loose connections.

4. Fill the water tank of the hot and cold water maker with water beforehand and check that all water lines are clear and leak-free.

5. After production, thoroughly clean the marshmallow maker machine and piping to prepare for the next production run.

6. Regularly apply grease to the reducer and bearings.

7. Do not modify the machine without authorization. For any questions, please consult Orange Mech.
