The price difference of finger biscuit coating line (also known as biscuit dipping line, chocolate coating line) is very large, ranging from tens of thousands of dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars. There is no fixed ‘standard price’ as it depends on multiple key factors:
2. Coating type and process requirements:
*Chocolate coating: the most common, requiring precise temperature control system and temperature control (melting tank, temperature controller, insulation pipeline). The finer the process (such as multi-layer coatings, specific patterns), the more complex and expensive the equipment.
*Sugar coating/icing/composite grease coating: Process requirements may vary, and equipment configuration (such as coating head, cooling requirements) may also differ.
*Coating uniformity and thickness control accuracy: The higher the requirements, the higher the cost of equipment (such as coating heads and conveyor belt stability).
3. Equipment configuration and component brand:
*Core components: feeding machine, dipping tank/coating machine/spraying machine, temperature controller (necessary for chocolate), cooling tunnel (length, number of layers, cooling power), conveying system (material, accuracy, speed control), control system (PLC brand, human-machine interface). The quality and brand differences are huge.
*Additional features: Do you need automatic weighing, visual inspection, automatic removal, automatic packaging connection, etc? Every additional functional module increases the cost.
4. Equipment materials and hygiene standards:
*Food grade stainless steel: must be used for parts in contact with food (such as 304 or 316L). The material grade, thickness, welding and polishing process affect the price and durability.
*Sanitary design: A design that complies with GMP, HACCP and other standards (easy to clean, no dead corners) will increase manufacturing costs.
Important suggestion:
*Don’t just focus on price: Equipment stability, production efficiency, yield, energy consumption, after-sales service, spare parts supply, and price are equally important. Cheap equipment with high failure rates, frequent shutdowns, significant waste, and high energy consumption may have higher long-term costs.
*Focus on core components: Understand the brand and performance of key components such as cooling tunnels, temperature controllers, and control systems.
*Emphasize hygiene design: This is crucial for food safety and daily cleaning and maintenance.
*Consider future scalability: if planning to increase production in the future, is it easy to upgrade the equipment
