一. Why Is It Necessary to Clean and Maintain a Cotton Candy Production Line?

The cotton candy production line is candy production equipment that mainly produces syrup and gelatin as raw materials. In production, there are many sugar residues left on the inner walls of pipelines and tank bodies. If these residues are not cleaned up in a timely manner, they can breed bacteria, not only reducing product quality but also affecting production efficiency. Long-term operation of machines can also cause machine damage and affect their service life. So, cleaning and maintenance of the machine are essential. Today, let’s talk about the relevant techniques for cleaning and maintenance.

二. Machine structure of cotton candy production line

1. Boiling and Mixing System

It mainly consists of a boiling pot and a cooling mixing tank, which are raw material processing equipment that transport sugar solution through pumps and pipelines.

2. Send System

The main components of the cotton candy production line include storage tanks, filtration devices, a centrifugal unit, and a hot and cold water unit. The centrifugal unit is the core of the cotton candy production line and is key equipment for transforming sugar solution into fluffy cotton.

3. Forming system

There are mainly a color mixing mechanism, a forming mechanism, a powder spreading and screening mechanism, a cutting table, and a conveying mechanism. The molding mechanism in the cotton candy production line is like a human shaper, shaping the beautiful appearance and color structure of cotton candy.

4. Packaging System

The packaging system is an indispensable part of the Marshmallow line, which
quickly packages cotton candy in various shapes and soft colors, puts on beautiful outerwear, and facilitates sales and transportation.

四. How to Perform Daily Machine Maintenance Properly

1. Pipeline Connection Parts of the Production Line

The pipeline connection parts are connected using quick clamps, leaving small gaps that need to be disassembled and cleaned regularly to prevent bacterial growth.

2. Machine Cooling and Transmission Parts

The internal water tanks of hot and cold water machines and blowers need to be checked regularly (7 days) and replenished with water. Gearboxes, conveyor rollers, etc. need to be regularly lubricated, and bearings should be checked for damage and exchanged regularly; Prevent sudden machine malfunctions from affecting production.

3. Check the Electrical Control Box Circuit

Regularly check whether the circuit connections are tight and clean the dust regularly. Prevent fires caused by poor contact or dust.

4. Check the Forming Mechanism

Regularly inspect the molding machine molds, replace them in a timely manner if they are worn or deformed, and prevent defective products from flowing out.

5. Check the Screws of Each Part of the Machine

Regularly inspect the screws of each part of the machine in batches and tighten them to prevent damage to the machine caused by screws falling off.

五. Summary

The cleaning and maintenance of the cotton candy production line is an essential part of the production process. It is necessary to achieve “thorough cleaning, leaving no dead corners; regular inspections; and prevention as the main focus.” Only by comprehensively and systematically doing a good job in cleaning and maintenance can the stable operation and efficient production of the machine be guaranteed.
