    2. Can also produce bars, shell moulded products, one shot products, etc.
    3. Line was new in around year 1980, had a complete overhaul in year 2009.
    4. This overhaul was done by the present owners, using extra contract engineers.
  2. Dimensions And Layout
    1. The line measures 26 metres long plus an extra 4.5 m for the outfeed conveyor, egg sieve, Goring Kerr DSP1 metal detector (which runs on the following test pieces: 1.5 mm ferrous, 1.5 mm non ferrous, 2.0 mm stainless) and elevating conveyor.
    2. Mould size plain: 600 mm x 220 mm.
    3. Book mould carrier 600 mm x 220 mm.
    4. The TW+E195O half egg moulds that go in these are 505 mm x 100 mm.
    5. The moulding line has capacity for 600 moulds but only includes around 400 book mould carriers.
  3. Line Components
    1. Mould heat station, one shot depositor, mould vibrator for open moulds, mould closing station, mould vibrator for closed moulds, cooling tunnel (serpentine), mould opening station, and pneumatic mould tappers.
    2. The moulds then return inside the top of the tunnel to the mould heat station.
  4. Production And Included Items
    1. Line was producing about 230 to 250 kg/hour on 7 gram eggs in either compound or chocolate.
    2. Also includes a full set of 13 gram egg moulds and depositor plate to match.
    3. Also with this line are numerous other moulds and depositor plates, and two extra depositors (one is a one shot and the other is one sided) which are currently in storage.
    4. The one shot one has larger pistons than the one currently fitted to the line and includes a depositor plate and some moulds for this for doing a 30 gram filled egg.
  5. Cooling System
    1. The moulding plant has its own evaporator on the roof of the building but does not have its own condensing unit as it is run off the factory compressor rack.
