ServoForm™ Flexi+
Starch-free gummy manufacturing
≤ 1,000 kg/hr – fully automated
Automated gummy manufacturing
production line
The ServoForm Flexi+ gummy manufacturing system is Baker Perkins’ fully automated starch-free depositing solution for higher-capacity gummy and jelly production up to 1,000 kg/hr.
Designed for nutraceutical, functional product, and confectionery applications, it fully automates ingredient handling, stable mold stacking, adjustable setting times and integrated downstream processes to deliver hygienic, scalable, and efficient starch-free production.
With easier mold changes, reusable mold technology and a compact footprint, ServoForm Flexi+ gummy manufacturing system helps manufacturers scale beyond smaller batch production while maintaining the flexibility needed for complex formulations, vegan gummies, 3D confectionery and fast-moving product innovation.

Slurry Preparation System – Batches of ingredients are manually added to a weighing and dissolving vessel to form a sugar slurry . This is stored in a reservoir tank and pumped continuously to the cooker. Both vessels are easy to clean and may be supplied with CIP
The cooking stage transforms the slurry into a precise sugar syrup with the final moisture content and temperature for gummy and jelly production. This step ensures consistency and quality across both standard and sugar-free recipes.
For automated high output lines and specialty recipes, the Baker Perkins Microfilm™ cooker offers vacuum thin-film technology for rapid, gentle cooking of heat-sensitive ingredients and syrups with inclusions.
All cookers are designed for hygienic operation, consistent quality, and seamless integration with downstream depositing equipment.
Additive addition system accurately adds colours, flavours and other ingredients to the cooked mixture. Adding them at the final stage helps maintain product quality, reduce ingredient loss and allow quick changes between recipes.
Each ServoForm Flex+ system includes two mould destacking units. The first takes stacks of empty moulds and loads them onto the infeed of the depositor. The second takes stacks of filled moulds and loads them onto the infeed of the demoulder.
In both cases, moulds are removed from the stack in batches of five to enable the destacker to maintain pace with the depositor/demoulder tray rate while keeping linear speeds of the unit low for stability and precision
The ServoForm Flexi Depositor combines the benefits of hygienic starch-free depositing with the flexibility to choose setting times between a few minutes and several hours. With outputs between 100 and 1,000kg/hr the Flexi is ideal for confectionery and nutraceutical manufacturers looking for high quality, low production costs and hygienic operation.
As well as high-quality single colour gummies and jellies, the depositor can produce multi-colour stripes, swirls and layers, gel/liquid centre-filled and 3D products, all with precisely controlled piece weight.
Each ServoForm Flex+ system includes two mould stacking units. The first takes filled moulds from the depositor and stacks them ready for transfer to the conditioning room. The second takes stacks of empty moulds from the demoulder and stacks them ready for transfer back to the depositor infeed or to storage, if a product change is underway.
In both cases, the moulds are gouped into batches of five before being picked up by the stacker. This is to maintain pace with the depositor/demoulder tray rate while keeping linear speeds of the destacker low for stability and precision
Before the demoulding operation, the filled moulds are inverted to assist both demoulding and collection of the products. The primary method for demoulding is air jet but mechanical assistance in the form of brushes is available where necessary. After demoulding, the moulds are turned to face upwards again.
The demoulder is fully enclosed and equipped with a Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) system to prevent airborne oil mist escaping into the atmosphere.
