At Siab of Verona in 1999, Fbm presented the first table top dropping machine for biscuits. No one had thought of it even though the idea was simple and under the eyes of everyone but, at the presentation, almost all the detractors and competitors said it was an extravagance of a young entrepreneur without future. Immediately after a few months, the first began to make a similar machine and, within ten years, everywhere in Italy, abroad, Eastern Europe as well as in South America, almost all were making copies of Evoluzione 400, the mother of current Tower Drop. Since then Fbm and that young and extravagant entrepreneur named Umberto Boscolo have made many other innovations in the biscuit sector and, even more, in that of chocolate. In the coming days we will tell them because it is important to take credit as it is important to continue to deserve them. To remember that fantastic May of twenty years ago, Fbm will present other incredible innovations in this May 2019 and, maybe this time, they will not be so simple to imitate. Here is the very first Evolution of 1999. Continues...

Fbm has produced customized machinery for almost all the major chocolate brands around Italy, Europe and in many parts of the world. It is pleasing that even among the leaders of Italian chocolate there are those who, after having tested different solutions of continuous tempering machines, have chosen Fbm once again. Hard work and cutting-edge technology besides the "marketing words", as well as the ability to customize, always make the difference and allow us to be inimitable and offer the solution to everyone. #chocolateforall is not just a hastag but a real existential target for Fbm.

Chocolate is increasingly popular and its uses are varied. This is why you can not always use the same model but, when there are special customers, you need to create a dedicated tunnel with the right ratios of cold air, crystallization, humidity control and transport of the product. Fortunately, the market has been waking up for some years and is starting to understand what Fbm proposes and who instead tells fantastic hyperbole for not wanting to change anything of its standard production. Here is a Climatico cooling tunnel with destination France dedicated to the industrial production of biscuits coupled with chocolate. 750 mm width, dedicated cleaning system and other small details customized only for this important manufacturer.

In a world where fake news are increasingly popular, it is curious to hear and see that someone does everything to spread misinformation. Fbm has always made its own the karma of personalization and research and development, leaving out the marketing sector, in which some are magicians. But to see that marketing gets to defame and distort technology deserves at least one post on our blog. What we are unveiling on the chocolate transport system, should be reserved and not published as part of the technology and experience of Fbm, but we are forefront enough to be able to disclose some little secrets to everyone. Fbm has produced stainless steel screw pumps from 1977 to 1999. Well, the stainless steel screw pumps that we used forty years ago are still used by marketing magicians... Then, in 1999, Fbm discovered that steel, as conductor, created some problems with some particular chocolates and that the weldings necessary for its realization could suffer from tears and oxidations transferable to the chocolate. Since then we have wrapped the steel with a special high-strength resin. We stopped taking a round and welding a spiral that could be desoldered but we took a full/core and, after returning it, we wrapped it with this high density resin. Bearing this in mind, it is enough to weigh (yes, the simplest things are always the result of truth!) a Fbm screw pump and any other screw pump and wonder why the "plastic" of Fbm weighs more than steel. So, we understand that often those who experience are not understood by those who do not, but highlight a system that we have abandoned twenty years ago as a better one that has been its development, is a mix of ignorance and presumption that perhaps is time to bring out.

In little more than a year after its presentation, Pann 30 has reached all the continents of the world and has helped the production of dragees in dozens of laboratories. Costumers were often asked for more productivity and here, once again, we satisfy every request. Pann 60 has a higher productivity. It has an internal cooling and heating system too and it can also manage the air chocolate sprayer if required. It will be officially presented and showed at the next Sigep in Rimini, on the Fbm island booth, where we are waiting all. #chocolateforall

The Fbm tempering system is unique and, for now, not imitated. Being able to temper the chocolate even when there is little quantity in the tank is something complicated to obtain, but the system used in our tempering machines allows us to make the difference even here.

Our ball mill made its debut last November in Paris and now, at Sigep, it will be presented for the first time in an Italian event but it will not be the only novelty of Fbm for this beginning of the year!
