Date Ball Machine Workflow

The Date Ball production line realizes automated continuous production through the seamless connection of three machines, with a simple and efficient workflow:


Step 1: Filling & Blank Forming (YC-170):

First, add the prepared Date Ball outer skin material (e.g., wheat flour dough) and inner filling (e.g., date paste, nut paste) into the corresponding hoppers of YC-170. The machine uses a sealed leak-proof system and variable-pitch spiral to push materials, and cuts them into 10-120g Date Ball blanks with 8 precise cutting points. The whole process is controlled by a multi-language screen, and parameters can be adjusted with one key.

Step 2: Rounding (YC-50):

The Date Ball blanks from YC-170 are automatically transported to YC-50. The machine uses a high-precision rolling and rounding structure (roller + rounding plate) to rub the irregular blanks into smooth, uniform spheres. The rounding speed is synchronized with YC-170 to avoid blank accumulation, and the product diameter is adjustable (15-70mm) to match different weight requirements.

Step 3: Flour Coating (YC-51):

The rounded Date Balls are sent to YC-51’s drum. The drum rotates to drive the Date Balls to roll, and the built-in feeding device uniformly sprays flour (or other coating materials) on the surface. Excess flour is recycled, ensuring each Date Ball is evenly coated without adhesion. Finally, the finished Date Balls are discharged from the drum, completing the entire production process.

In addition, if the future output needs to be expanded, Shanghai Yucheng Machinery can plan the size and placement of the fully automatic extended line according to the actual area of the customer’s factory, realizing higher-efficiency mass production.


Introduction to Date Ball

Date Ball, also known as ""date paste ball"" or ""nut date ball"", is a popular snack and healthy food loved by global consumers, especially in the Middle East, Europe, and Southeast Asia.

Raw Materials: It mainly uses high-quality dates (e.g., Medjool dates, Deglet Noor dates) as the core raw material, which are pitted and mashed into a paste; then mixed with nuts (walnuts, almonds, pistachios), grains (oats, quinoa), or auxiliary materials (coconut flakes, chocolate chips) to enhance taste and nutrition.

Taste & Characteristics: The finished Date Ball has a soft and glutinous texture, with a natural sweet taste from dates (no additional sugar needed in many formulas), and the crispness of nuts or the richness of chocolate, making it a ""healthy sweet"" that balances taste and nutrition. It is usually free of artificial additives, preservatives, and high sugar, meeting the modern consumer demand for ""clean-label"" and healthy snacks.

Market Scenarios: It is widely used as a casual snack (for office, outdoor activities), a healthy substitute for candy (suitable for children and sugar-controlled groups), and a festive food (used in festivals such as Ramadan and Christmas in some regions).

Adaptability to Our Production Line: Our industrial-grade Date Ball production line can accurately control the weight (10-120g) and size of Date Balls, and adapt to different formulas (e.g., pure date paste balls, nut-mixed date balls, chocolate-coated date balls). The sealed and hygienic production process meets food safety standards, and the multi-language operation interface is convenient for enterprises in different countries to use.
