Puratos and AMF Bakery Systems collaborated on developing a new pilot bakery plant that supports their work with commercial bakeries in North America. The facility, featuring last-generation technology that mirrors real-world manufacturing setups, is now open for projects at Puratos’ US Headquarters.
Establishing a complete setup for sourdough production in industrial bakeries poses several challenges. The fermentation process must be taken into account and the equipment must be able to replicate handcraft techniques.
Establishing a complete setup for sourdough production in industrial bakeries poses several challenges. The fermentation process must be taken into account and the equipment must be able to replicate handcraft techniques to handle this delicate dough.
As flatbreads grew to become a valued staple worldwide, technology has provided answers to all its production challenges, to match traditional handcrafting techniques.
Product waste in industrial bakeries can arise from several factors, each contributing to the overall inefficiency of the production process. Understanding these causes is crucial for developing strategies to mitigate waste.
The automated line designed by AMF Tromp can flexibly support a wide range of pies, either savory or sweet, in a baking tray, in foils, or in paper cups. They can bake the pie shells only, pies with the top opened or closed and pies with or without a lattice decoration. For (pre-)baking the pies, AMF recommends a Den Boer Multibake tunnel oven with impingement heating or a direct-fired system.
The stress-free sheeting technology developed by AMF Tromp is at the heart of the processing line for any artisan bread product. The technology was developed around maintaining the quality and integrity of the traditional craft.
For industrial production, pizza lines are made to welcome any variations required. Accurate processes are a must for these flexible lines.
Royal Smilde is known for its rich diversity of sweet and savory baked creations. Either sold under its own labels, through collaborations, or as private labels, the products made by the Dutch bakery are in growing demand worldwide. A very flexible production line helped them increase production volumes, built by AMF Bakery Systems (Tromp). Particular care was given to automating apple turnover production, namely – dough folding into a triangle.
AMF Bakery Systems (AMF) launched a new artisan sheeted bread line, by AMF Tromp. The line features major design upgrades that simplify maintenance, optimize process control and reduce energy and water consumption while delivering artisan-style results.
At iba 2023, AMF Bakery Systems showcases solutions that support sustainable baking, including oven technology and smart services. New developments for bread lines, pizza systems and soft bread and bun production will also be presented.
