Electrical & Canadian approval
Our machines are built in Europe and CE marked. Machines we configure for Canada are ordered for 60 Hz at 120 V, 208 V or 240 V single phase, or 208 V three phase. Machines are not CSA, cUL or UL certified unless this page says so; if your electrical authority requires a field evaluation to CSA SPE-1000, we can coordinate an on-site Intertek evaluation at your facility on request, quoted at an hourly rate and paid by you. If this page shows a different voltage, or a 50 Hz-only rating, ask us before ordering: some models need a specific configuration or a step-down transformer. Installation, the dedicated circuit and permits are done by your licensed electrician and are not included.

About this machine
Engineered to run all day. Supported for years.
The FBM TAO KID is a compact ball mill for refining chocolate, gianduia nut pastes and spreadable creams in batches of 15 kg. FBM designed it to reach a fineness of 20–25 microns.
A special reversible screw pump keeps the product circulating during refining and is easy to reach for cleaning. A compact touchscreen PLC sets stirrer speed, pump speed, working temperature (separate heating and cooling circuits) and refining time, and stores recipes for repeatable batches.
Made to order in Italy — approx. 21 days, then sea shipping (≈30 days) or optional air express (≈12 days, extra cost), across Canada.
