ABSTRACT:
A process for cooling, grinding, and packaging an ingredient material, such as an encapsulated sweetener or acid, for a chewing gum product is disclosed. The material is extruded from an extruding machine directly onto a conveyor. The conveyor transports the liquid material, preferably in elongated strings, through a chamber cooled by circulation of cooled air. The solidified material exiting the cooling chamber is cut into small pieces by a rotating cutter and conveyed by a vacuum conveyor system to a grinder. The material is further broken up (ground) into a powder and transported to a holding bin. Thereafter, the powder is deposited in boxes or other containers for storage.
