Automated production lines are the solution to optimizing production and optimally allocating resources, including a critical one: the people on the production floor. Designing the turnkey line that fits best with a given environment throughout each process step also starts with people: the design team tasked with bringing together only the perfect pieces of the puzzle that will become a new line.
The Rademaker Pie and Quiche line is developed to produce an extensive assortment of pies and quiches from all cultures, ranging from meat pies, fruit pies, egg tarts (such as the beloved Pasta del Nata) and cheesecakes, to Melton pies, pork pies and even quiches; pies with an open top or closed with a dough lid, or crumbled top.
Rademaker designed its bread line for production efficiency, for a diverse range of breads including small baguettes, baguettes, triangle buns, square buns, hexagonal shaped buns, decorated/stamped buns, ciabatta, focaccia, pave, bagels and for a large variation of rounded products.
Making its debut on the best stage for a first impression, at iba, the new, compact IMPRESSA bread line developed by FRITSCH for industrial production manages to save 20% of the floor space – about 5 m. This was accomplished, in part, by new sheeting technology incorporated in the revised Soft Dough Sheeter (SDS) and the new Soft Dough Roller (SDR).
At iba, SENSURE is showcasing its vision inspection solutions (STARGATE series), which use high-speed, non-contact imaging cameras and/or profilometer lasers to quantify a wide range of product quality parameters (shape, size, color, height, topping coverage, volume, etc.) at high speed. All solutions provide continuous and quantitative data that can be used to identify process issues and create a library of information for analysis.
A characteristic all trays have in common, regardless of endless possibilities in their layouts, is the safety guarantee provided for the products baked, time and again.
Cleaning can quite literally make or break the trays, respectively their life expectancy.
Different types of products made with laminated dough have their own process requirements to achieve the desired characteristics. Flexible equipment is needed.
Transport crates for baked goods do not appear to differ much at first sight. They only vary in color, weight and height. However, when it comes to cleaning the crates, the situation is very different.
Mixing up label rolls in production is every food manufacturer’s nightmare. Visual inspection of the products is time- consuming, personnel-intensive, and still carries risks.
As a basis, the hygienic risk to food safety/shelf-life is taken as an example for baked goods. Subdivision takes place according to the hygiene sensitivity of the respective products. The basis
is always an assessment of the respective product
