How to use a Candle Making Machine

Using a candle making machine significantly automates the process, increasing production speed, consistency, and safety compared to hand-pouring. 

The exact steps can vary by machine model (from small semi-automatic tables to large fully automatic production lines), but the core principles remain the same.

Here is a comprehensive guide on how to use an industrial-grade candle making machine.

The Candle Making Machine Workflow Overview

A typical machine automates the following key steps:

Melting: Heating the wax to a precise temperature.

Metering & Dispensing: Pumping the exact amount of molten wax into containers or molds.

Cooling & Solidifying: Conveying the filled containers through a cooling tunnel.

Topping Off: Accounting for wax shrinkage by adding a second layer.

Finishing: Automatically placing wicks (for jar candles) or labeling.
