Abstract: The embossing chain for the production of formed articles from candies, comprises chain links joined to each other, a first embossing stamp (10) relocatable on a first guiding pole (11) with a first embossing surface, a second embossing stamp relocatable on a second guiding pole (16) with a second embossing surface, and a forming element assigned to each chain links with an extensively closed forming area that stretches first and second cross-sectional areas to the guiding poles. The first and second embossing surfaces have a dimensioning sufficient to cover the cross-sectional areas. The embossing chain for the production of formed articles from candies, comprises chain links joined to each other, a first embossing stamp (10) relocatable on a first guiding pole (11) with a first embossing surface, a second embossing stamp relocatable on a second guiding pole (16) with a second embossing surface, and a forming element assigned to each chain links with an extensively closed forming area that stretches first and second cross-sectional areas to the guiding poles. The first and second embossing surfaces have a dimensioning sufficient to cover the first and second cross-sectional areas, and are relocatable against the first and second cross-sectional areas to be covered. The chain links have a cutting edge (2). The first and the second guiding poles are arranged parallel to the cutting edge. The forming element has a solid cross-sectional area from the first and the second cross-sectional area. The first embossing surface is relocatable in the forming element. Each second chain link is connected with an associated connection element and with an associated guide housing (6) to a firm unit. The forming elements are alternatively arranged individually or pairs on opposite sides of adjoining chain links. The first and the second embossing surfaces have a geometry that covers the second joining chain links from chain embossing surface (5) in a plain and an opposite chain from the chain embossing surface in areas stretched in adjoining cutting edge to each other. The forming element is put together by two components, which are joined only in sections of the forming area that has an offset for positioning the cutting edge and for positioning the opposite edge of the chain embossing surface parallel to the cutting edge. The first and the second embossing stamps are relocatable through the forming element until the first and second embossing surfaces are arranged on the second and first forehead sections of the forming element in the plain. The second and first embossing stamps are relocatable against the second and first cross-sectional surfaces through the second and first forehead sections of the forming element. An independent claim is included for a procedure for the production of stamped articles through embossing of sections of deformable cord of a candy mass.
