DTG Finn continues to elevate chocolate coating and polishing with advanced, sustainable solutions designed to meet modern production demands  

Chocolate Coating and Chocolate Polishing has always been at the heart of dtg Finn equipment design and operation.  Delivering outstanding results with ease of production on many types of centres including  fruit and savoury, or very small and delicate inclusions. 

The rising costs of ingredients together with the changing trends and demands of the consumer has resulted in many different coatings being available in the confectionary market and it is these demands that have driven dtg Finn research and development to ensure their machines deliver sustainable production, with low production losses, high yield and to exacting requirements. dtg’s design engineers are CFS Hygienic Design Certified to ensure they meet all the latest food production standards. 

 The benefits now offered are: 

  1. ThermoDrive® belt, reducing chocolate waste, which at today’s prices is a real advantage. 
  1. Improved bacteria control and easy clean, with less down time 
  1. Allergen control is far greater as no joints and hinges 
  1. Automated production – reducing labour costs. 
  1. Advanced recipe system for quality assurance and effective product control. 
  1. Data reporting for management analysis. 
  1. Dashboard facility for monitoring and planning 

dtg have taken the proven excellence of the Finn Coater and Finn Polisher design and, with confidence, will deliver a complete process system to include transfer conveyors for automated production and easy handling.  To ensure optimum production, an air system can deliver dehumidified air to the coating and polishing chambers. This can also be integrated into the automatic handling system. This has the benefit of experienced Finn and specialist air supply engineers working together for the customer benefit. 

Chocolate tanks of all capabilities and capacities supplied from Rinsch GmbH can complete the advanced installation if required. 

Whether loyal, returning customers or new clients with new to the market projects, the dedication is the same; dtg stand by their equipment and support their customers. dtg’s goal is to provide a system to meet all customer needs with flexibility for different coatings from chocolate, compounds to yoghurt and flavourings. 

50 years since their first machines were used to coat and polish traditional peanuts and raisins, dtg are now seeing square products such as wafers, light and delicate products like rice puffs and jellies, confectionary with fondant and savoury centres being produced on some of those very same machines. A true testament to the endurance and versatility of Finn machines.  

Products can be finished on the Finn Coater with powders, spices, chopped fruit and nuts or glazed and sealed on the Finn Polisher with automated dispensing of products. 

A history of continuous development and true commitment to the confectionery sector with a real world understanding of the demands customers now face, has dtg Limited in the proud position of not only producing the best Finn Coaters and Polishers ever, but also providing the fantastic innovative chocolate confectionery producers globally with an unrivalled customer service to match. 

Here’s to the next 50 years.
