RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Bringing a new and innovative idea to life in the confectionery market means combining product chemistry with machine engineering to make a concept scalable for industrial production.

Achieving such a result requires experimentation and testing. For this reason, Nuova Euromec offers its customers the opportunity to work with us at Francesco Rizzi Lab — a fully equipped facility with a dedicated team, designed to provide the best possible support during the product prototyping phase.

Frequently Asked
Questions

";

We offer solutions for all scales:

  • Smallest batch system: 5–20 kg per batch
  • Smallest continuous line: 100 kg/h
  • Largest industrial plant: over 2,000 kg/h

Capacities may vary depending on product type, weight and dimensions.

Yes. Our forming lines are modular and can be equipped with custom layouts and accessories to handle:

Hard or soft candies

Chewing gum

Lollipops
All on the same line, with minimal downtime for changeovers.

It depends on your product, production goals, and prior experience.
We offer all three systems, but based on performance and flexibility, we typically recommend chain technology, especially for filled candies.

To define a suitable technical and financial solution, we need:

  • Product details: photos, samples or reference specs
  • Shape, size, weight and required hourly output (in kg/h)
  • Info about existing equipment (mass preparation, cooking system – batch or continuous)
  • Type of packaging (flowpack, double twist, etc.)

To run the plant, you’ll need:

  • Compressed air
  • Water
  • Steam
  • Electricity

Nuova Euromec specializes in the forming stage – the heart of the process. That’s where our expertise lies, and it’s what made us a trusted reference in the industry for over 70 years.
For complete turn-key solutions, we collaborate with top-tier partners for upstream (cooking) and downstream (wrapping) technologies.

It depends on the filling type. Here’s a general guide (by weight):

  • Powder: up to 10%
  • Syrup/Pectin base: up to 25%
  • Fat-based creams: up to 30%
  • Gum/Chewy centers: up to 40%

These values refer to hard candies around 4–5g, produced with chain forming technology.

Not anymore.
Our latest-generation seamless chain die sets now offer a final candy appearance that’s virtually identical to that of rotary systems.

here are three main forming systems:

Drop roller system (Cylinder system)
For small-sized candies (under 2g or 12mm), often used to keep a handcrafted look.

Rotary system
Ideal for solid candies or low-filled products; best for continuous runs with minimal shape variation.

Chain system
The most flexible solution. Designed for high-speed production of high-quality, center-filled candies. Enables fast product changeovers and higher filling percentages.

Absolutely. Our lab is available to test and develop new recipes or to run FAT trials before final delivery.
This ensures faster installation and smooth product ramp-up. Our experienced technicians can also help fine-tune your process to maximize the line’s performance.

Can you support the development of a new candy product?

In Bergamo, there’s a saying: “All you need is attention, patience… and a little luck.”
Jokes aside, if you’re planning a medium-to-high capacity industrial setup or a small-scale artisanal production, the core components remain the same:

  • Mass preparation and cooking system
  • Forming line
  • Wrapping machines
