摘要:
A method, system and apparatus for continuously producing coated tablets or pellets of liquid-filled gum material. An extruded rope of liquid-filled gum material is formed, sized, and separated into individual pellets of liquid-filled gum material. A tablet-forming mechanism having pairs of chain mechanisms with open mating die groove members separate the rope of gum material into individual pieces and form it into individual pellets. The open die groove members have curved non-flat configurations such that the die cavities form pellets of liquid-filled gum material with curved non-flat configurations. The formed pellets of gum material are cooled in a cooling mechanism, conditioned at an appropriate low humidity, low temperature environment, and then coated with a hard sugar or sugarless shell.
