Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device for detecting the solidification behavior of pourable and solidifying masses and/or masses that are to be solidified, in particular of chocolate-type masses, as well as their separation behavior from their delimiting walls that are in contact with these masses, specifically molds. Solutions are offered regarding how to achieve the optimized point in time for demolding and for achieving optimized product surface quality taking into account process orders of magnitude such as cooling temperature, cooling speed and conveyor belt speed.
