ChocoNova Orbit Temper
The ChocoNova Orbit is a tempering solution that combines a temper column with plate heat exchangers. Its unique design ensures stable chocolate mass through gentle precooling followed by high-shear crystallization — delivering efficient processing with reduced energy consumption.

Precooling Zone – Controlled Stability
In the precooling zone, a plate heat exchanger lowers the chocolate mass temperature without scraping. The system maintains a minimum of 24 °C, preventing solidification and ensuring uninterrupted flow into the next stage. An optional Pre-Treat Zone stabilizes the incoming cream temperature for consistent results.
Crystallization Zone – Efficient Tempering
In the crystallization zone, scraper wings are driven as a planetary gear around the cooling elements. This creates high shear and mixing, enabling efficient formation of stable crystals. The process reduces viscosity and allows lower outlet temperatures — while saving energy by eliminating the need for reheating.

User-friendly interface
The most simple and user-friendly interface ever made for a tempering machine.
While other tempering machines have complicated to use interface, our new patented software has a user-friendly and intuitive one. With the new software, it is effortless to adjust the exit temperature and the temper index separately. The user interface is developed for users by users and is specially produced by Aasted for the chocolate industry.
