About Pomati Meet Pomati, Our Chocolate Equipment Partner
Pomati is based in Codogno, in Italy’s Lodi province, and has worked on both the Italian and international market since 1967. Chocolate is its focus: the company describes itself as offering “machines and accessories for chocolate processing,” serving pastry shops, ice cream parlors, catering, bread making and small and medium-size confectionery factories.
Its range covers each step of chocolate work, from melting and tempering to enrobing, molding, panning, one shot depositing and cooling, and many of those machines are designed to work together. That range is why Pomati is Erika’s chocolate equipment partner: one brand can take a chocolatier from a tabletop T5 to an SL Series line with enrobing, depositing and cooling. Its newest tempering line is the SL Series, Pomati’s latest innovation, with a touch screen control panel and, by Pomati’s rating, 35% lower energy consumption than the average of existing machines on the market.
The Pomati Range Pomati Chocolate Equipment Lineup
Erika carries two Pomati tempering families, the T-Series (T5, T8, T20 and T35) and the SL Series (SL 16, SL 30, SL 50 and SL 80), plus Pomati melters, enrobing options, tempering accessories, molding and panning machines, the One Shot Depositor Series and cooling tunnels.

Pomati T-Series Tempering Machines
The T-Series covers tabletop to industrial tempering. The T5 is a 5 kg tabletop machine on 110V. The T8, T20 and T35 step up to 9, 24 and 50 kg tanks, rated at up to 27, 90 and 180 kg an hour, with pedal dosing and a built-in heated vibrating table. All four use a double heated recirculating tank for gentle melting and a removable Archimedean screw for easy cleaning. The T20 and T35 also anchor Pomati’s enrobing belt and T-Line molding setups.

Pomati melters hold chocolate at working temperature for dosing and production. The Cube is a compact tabletop melter for up to 5 kg, with pedal dosing and countertop or in-counter installation, and the T8 ICE is a 9 kg melter with a continuous chocolate fountain. For larger production, Pomati Tank Melters hold 150 or 300 kg in a heat-regulated water bath and, with the optional pump and level sensor, can feed tempering machines automatically.

Accessories turn a T8, T20, T35 or SL Series machine into an enrobing or finishing station. The Enrobing Belt works with the T20 and T35, and the folding Enrobing Trolley brings compact enrobing to the T8, T20 and T35. The Heat Lamp, Dispensing Plate, Safety Glass and Truffle Table fit the T20, T35 and SL Series, the Exit Conveyor Belt extends the T20 and T35, and a portable Vibrating Table pairs with the T5.

For molded products, the T-Line turns a T20 or T35 into a mold line with mold feeding, a pneumatic dosing plate and vibration. The OSM Molds Loader loads and preheats polycarbonate molds, the Molds Tipper tips, vibrates and recovers chocolate for shells, and the Mold Spinning Machine coats hollow molds evenly. For panned products, the tabletop Mini Bassina (up to 4.5 kg per cycle) and the Bassina (8 or 16 kg, with touchscreen programming) coat centers in chocolate with temperature control.

The One Shot Depositor Series (OSD Zero, OSD-5 and OSD-10) deposits chocolate and filling at the same time, for filled or solid chocolates. Servomotor and sensor control keep deposits accurate once programmed, the hopper and dispensing valves are heated separately, and recipes are stored on the touchscreen. Various OSD depositing heads and dosing plates are available across the series, and the OSV Vibrating Table adds horizontal vibration for tablets and pralines on the OSD-5 and OSD-10.

Cooling sets the product before finishing or packaging. The Pomati Cooling Tunnel is a stainless steel tunnel with refrigerated lengths from 4 to 12 meters and 180, 250 or 320 mm belts, the same widths as Pomati’s enrobing belts. Where floor space is tight, the Vertical Cooling Tunnel cools vertically, bringing cooling into the line without a long horizontal footprint.
Explore Cooling TunnelsThe Erika Approach Why Chocolatiers Choose Pomati From Erika
Chocolate equipment is a long-term decision, and the right Pomati setup depends on what you make, how much you need and what happens after tempering. Erika helps you settle that before you buy. Our Baker’s Lab is our showroom and test facility, and Pomati tempering machines, panning machines and the One Shot Depositor Series are available for testing. Before a chocolate test, our team reviews your couverture, product dimensions and production goals, and our on-staff technical baker supervises the demonstration and completes a detailed test report with video. If you can’t visit, send your recipe and ingredients instead.
After the sale, we keep Pomati spare parts in stock in the US, and our support team handles replacement parts and technical questions. Our repair service covers New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Eastern Pennsylvania. Outside that area, we assist through our nationwide network of service partners. Erika has supported bakers since 1991.
On the Production Floor How Pomati Fits on the Production Floor
A Pomati setup usually grows around its tempering machine. In a pastry shop or small chocolate kitchen, a tabletop T5 or a T8 handles tempering, with a Cube holding extra chocolate for dosing. When chocolate work runs all day, an SL Series station such as the SL 16 or SL 30 keeps tempered chocolate at the spout through the shift and holds it overnight in night mode.
As volume grows, the next step depends on the product. Coated centers move to the Enrobing Belt, Enrobing Trolley or the CNSL belt on an SL machine. Molded bars and shells go to the T-Line, Molds Tipper or Mold Spinning Machine, and filled chocolates to the One Shot Depositor Series. Pomati Tank Melters with the optional pump and level sensor can feed tempering machines, and a Cooling Tunnel or Vertical Cooling Tunnel sets product before packaging.

Erika Baking Equipment is an official distributor of Pomati. We carry the T5, T8, T20 and T35 T-Series machines, the SL 16, SL 30, SL 50 and SL 80, and Pomati melting, enrobing, molding, panning, one shot depositing and cooling equipment. Ask Erika for help choosing a model, testing, installation and parts.
-
What is the difference between the Pomati SL Series and T-Series?
-
Both melt, temper and dose chocolate through an auger. The SL Series (SL 16, SL 30, SL 50, SL 80) is Pomati’s newer line, with a touch screen, separate tank and auger temperature control, night mode and a direct connection for the CNSL enrobing belt. The T-Series runs from the tabletop T5 to the industrial T35, uses a double heated recirculating tank, and is the base for the Enrobing Belt, Enrobing Trolley and T-Line.
-
Which Pomati tempering machine is right for a small chocolate kitchen?
-
Which Pomati machines suit larger or wholesale production?
-
The T35 is the largest T-Series machine and the SL 80 the largest SL Series machine, rated at up to 180 kg and roughly 264 kg of chocolate an hour. Pomati Tank Melters in 150 or 300 kg, with the optional pump and level sensor, can feed tempering machines automatically, and the One Shot Depositor Series, T-Line and Cooling Tunnel build the rest of a production line.
-
Can a Pomati tempering machine enrobe products?
-
Yes, with an enrobing option. The Enrobing Belt connects to the T20 and T35, the Enrobing Trolley to the T8, T20 and T35, and the CNSL enrobing belt connects directly to SL Series machines in widths that depend on the model. A Cooling Tunnel can follow for continuous enrobing.
-
What does the Pomati One Shot Depositor do?
-
The One Shot Depositor Series deposits chocolate and filling at the same time, for products with or without fillings. Various OSD depositing heads and dosing plates are available across the series, and the OSV Vibrating Table adds horizontal vibration on the OSD-5 and OSD-10.
-
Can I test a Pomati machine before I buy?
-
Yes. Pomati tempering machines, panning machines and the One Shot Depositor Series are available for testing in our Baker’s Lab, Erika’s showroom and test facility.
