A method, system and apparatus for continuously producing coated tablets or pellets of liquid-filled gum material. An extruded rope (15) of liquid-filled gum material is formed, sized, and separated into individual pellets of liquid- filled gum material. A tablet-forming mechanism (22) having pairs of chain mechanisms with open mating die groove members separate the rope of gum material into individual pieces and form it into individual pellets. The open die groove members have curved non-flat configurations such that the die cavities form pellets of liquid-filled gum material with curved non-flat configurations. The formed pellets of gum material are cooled in a cooling mechanisms (26), conditioned at an appropriate low humidity, low temperature environment, and then coated with a hard sugar or sugarless shell.

La présente invention concerne un procédé, un système et un appareil permettant de produire de façon continue des pastilles ou des tablettes dans une matière de gomme remplie de liquide. Selon le procédé de l'invention, on met en forme, on calibre et on divise en pastilles individuelles de matière de gomme remplie de liquide un cordon extrudé de matière de gomme remplie de liquide. Un mécanisme de formation de pastilles comprenant des paires de mécanismes à chaîne munis d'éléments moules à rainure ouverts appariés divise le cordon de matière de gomme en pièces individuelles et leur confère une forme de pastilles individuelles. Les éléments moules à rainure ouverts possèdent des configurations non plates de façon que les cavités de moules forment des pastilles de matière de gomme remplie de liquide aux configurations non plates. Une fois formées, les pastilles de matière de gomme sont refroidies dans des mécanismes de refroidissement, conditionnées dans un environnement approprié à faible humidité et basse température et elles sont ensuite revêtues d'un enrobage en sucre dur ou sans sucre.
