Cremer, a supplier of product counting machines in the U.S., has introduced its HQS 1250 Counting & Dispensing Machine, designed specifically for gummy applications in the nutraceutical and confectionary sectors. Drawing on over 40 years of experience in the pharmaceutical market, Cremer developed the gummy solution in partnership with filler manufacturer Spee-Dee.
The new 12-lane counter can precisely apportion gummies of all shapes and sizes to a downstream bottler or single belt setup. With an average output of 150 bottles per minute on a 60-count gummy product, the HQS 1250 is ideal for a wide variety of gummies in typical sanded or sugared formulations.
Market reports indicate the nutraceutical gummies market has experienced a compounded growth rate (CGR) of 12.5% between 2016-2020, and a forecasted 15.0% CGR is expected over the next decade.
