ABSTRACT:
A system is provided for automatically and continuously producing chewing gum and/or chewing gum base. A system controller receives inputs of parameters necessary for production. Ingredients are automatically and continuously fed and mixed to form a desired end product. During production of chewing gum, the gum is automatically and continuously discharged from the mixer and can be automatically dusted, rolled, scored and wrapped. The system is continuously monitored with appropriate sensing devices. Signals indicative of the sensed conditions are sent to the controller, and the system automatically adjusts to produce a consistent end product. An alarm is activated upon sensing of a predetermined condition.
