The invention relates to a method and a device for demolding at least one confectionary item (2), which is to be demolded from a cavity (4) of a casting mold (3) upside down by means of a gripping arrangement (5), wherein the gripping arrangement (5) has at least one suction element (6) with which the substantially flat base (32) of the confectionary item, which base is facing upwards, is suctioned, wherein the confectionary item (2), where it is transferred upside down by a switching off of the negative pressure, wherein before or after the suction element (6) has suctioned the base (32) of the confectionery item (2), a loosening movement is generated which introduces alternating forces into the confectionery item (2) which generate deformations in the confectionery item (2) which act right up to the outer border layer of said confectionery item and reduce the adhesive force of said confectionery item at the contact surface of the cavity (4) and at least partially release the adhesive force, and wherein the confectionery item (2) is then completely removed from the cavity (4) by the suction element (6).
A method for demolding at least one confectionery item (2), which is to be demolded upside down from a cavity (4) of a casting mold (3) by means of a gripping arrangement (5), wherein the gripping arrangement (5) comprises at least one suction element (6), with which the upwardly standing, substantially flat bottom (32) of the confectionery item (2) is sucked in, wherein the confectionery item (2), where it is transferred upside down by switching off the negative pressure, wherein, before or after the suction element (6) has sucked the bottom (32) of the confectionery item (2) in, a detachment movement is generated which introduces alternating forces into the confectionery item (2), which generate deformations in the confectionery item (2), which act up to its outer boundary layer and reduce its force of adhesion to the contact surface of the cavity (4) and at least partially release the force of adhesion, and in that the confectionery item (2) is then taken completely out of the cavity (4) by the suction element (6).
A device (1) for demolding at least one confectionery item (2) from a cavity (4) of a casting mold (3), the device comprising:
