  • Size

    A larger candy cutter requires a relatively high supply voltage to operate its functions effectively.

    Therefore, the larger the machine, the higher the supply voltage it requires and vice versa.

  • Specification

    Candy pulling devices with multiple sizes often require high supply voltages to manage all functions seamlessly.

    Therefore, in order to get the best performance from machines with more and complex specifications, it is best to choose a machine with a higher voltage.

    Mode of operation - Ideally, a semi-automatic candy cutting unit requires a relatively lower supply voltage than a fully automatic unit.

  • Production volume

    The higher and faster the production volume, the higher the power supply voltage required.

  • Custom needs

    Custom candy cutting machines may require a lower or higher supply voltage depending on your production needs.

    Essentially, there is no fixed supply voltage for this particular machine as it depends on many factors, such as the few mentioned above.

    However, most standard candy cutting machines require a supply voltage range of 220-380 V for best performance and efficiency.

 

6.Are candy cutting machines expensive?

Generally speaking, investing in candy production equipment is a significant investment in itself.

An entire candy production line requires careful consideration, as candy production has expensive initial costs.

It is worth noting that if you have more additional needs, the manufacturer can usually accommodate them, but your price may be a bit more expensive.

The heavy duty cast stainless steel material used to manufacture its frame components is strong and resistant to various mechanical elements.

In addition, the design and integration of its parts, components and functions are seamless, enhancing its overall durability.

Essentially, this means that this machine has a robust design structure that allows it to withstand a wide variety of harsh conditions.

Even so, there are several aspects that typically determine the exact durability of this equipment, such as the following.

  • Surroundings

    Candy cutting machines are often exposed to a variety of environmental and mechanical conditions.

    Of course, exposure to endless harsh conditions usually reduces its overall life and vice versa.

  • Body Material

    Typically, the frame material is an integral durability determinant for a candy cutter.

    Therefore, if it is a stronger material, it will last longer than a relatively weaker material.

  • Intensity and frequency of use

    It's worth noting that the more times you pull candy with this machine, the faster it will wear out.

    Essentially, it will suffer subjective tearing and wear for every hour of operation.

  • Routine Maintenance

    A properly maintained candy pulling machine will last longer than a poorly maintained candy pulling machine.
