The system and method for molding a shaped snack chip use various components to form chips having depth such as a bowl-shaped tortilla chip. Essentially flat chip preforms are fed to a series of molds (64) disposed about a mold conveyor (68). The preforms are then passed along for shaping by a mold and plunger conveyor (60). A continuous conveyor (82) with plungers (80) extending outward is synchronized to operate in conjunction with the mold conveyor. At desired and determined intervals, a multiple of plungers extend downward and into the molds thereby molding the chip preforms into shaped chips. The shaped chips are evacuated from the molds and subjected to additional processing.

Le système et le procédé de moulage de chip d'apéritif en forme utilise divers éléments pour former des chips possédant une épaisseur telle que celle d'une chip de tortilla en forme de bol Des préformes de chip sensiblement plates sont alimentées dans une série de moules (64) placés autour d'un transporteur (68) de moules. Ces préformes sont ensuite avancées en vue d'une mise en forme par un moule et un transporteur (60) à pistons. Un transporteur (82) continu avec des pistons (80) s'étendant vers l'extérieur est synchronisé de façon à fonctionner de concert avec le transporteur de moules. A intervalles souhaités et déterminés, de multiples pistons s'étendent vers le bas et dans les moules, moulant ainsi les préformes de chip en chips en forme. Ces chips en forme sont évacuées des moules et soumises à un traitement additionnel.
