COTTON CANDY MACHINE ACB-09E
REVISED 28-Sep-17

Electric motor runs spinning head at high rate (see Technical
Specifications). There is a Stator (4) mounted on the chassis, equipped
with silicone sealing Collar (5) and silicone adjustment Ring (6). The
spinning head has the following main parts: Impeller (7); Baseplate (8);
Sidewall with heating element (9); Cover (10).
The principle of operation is as following. Spinning head rotates with sugar
mix inside. Heating element warms the sugar up to flow point (120-
140°C).
Due to centrifugal force, melted sugar flies outside of sidewall, where
instantly cooled down and crystallizes, turning into candy floss.
Along with spinning head the impeller rotates as well, producing powerful
airflow going upwards. Air comes in from below through the axial holes of
the stator.
Airflow lifts cotton candy upwards, above 1 m. Sugar particles that too
massive to be lifted by airflow, accumulate on the inner surface of plastic
pan (the pan mshown).
Silicone ring lets to adjust intensity of the air flow; silicone collar seals the
gap between the pan and the stator, avoiding sugar falling onto housing of
the machine.
The front panel has the following controls. Switch (11) turns on electric
motor; Switch (12) turns on heating element; Adjustment Knob (13)
