Hi,
I'm trying to find this part without success.

P_20200205_135528_leir5k.jpg


In the photo is screwed but the thread is M10, the hole is 5.6mm.

Nothing similar appears when searching for "nozzle" in Google or Ebay.

Maybe as a none English speaker I'm using the wrong term?
So what is it?

Thank you!

After I sent 4 emails to the manufacturer, they finally managed to give an answer:

"we order the nozzles from a supplier but be send to the producer the technical draw"

OK, now it's time to reverse engineering the thing and find a machine shop.


Thanks!
 
FWIW, many good screw machine shops exist in northern Italy, may be cheaper than local shops but would still be tariff-free for you in Europe. Also, it's really pretty there and they have very good restaurants, and of course you should do a site visit to ensure your nozzles are being produced with proper quality assurance. I will kindly offer my services to assist you.
 
btrueblood: as maybe you know, a chocolate machine in Europe has a chance of 80% to be manufactured in Italy.
I was there a couple of years ago when I bought it and went a bit more north, for a couple of days, to Lake Como. A very beautiful part of Italy.
Thank you for the invitation!

 
Chokky,
I probably don't have to tell you this, but an inspector sure will:
Be sure you pay attention to the surface finish. That is not a FAD sanitary fitting, but it probably should be.

Don't modify the design at all. The flat face at the orifice may be there for a reason. Especially if you are doing deposit drops.

Good luck
