That’s the way the cookie doesn’t crumble: gentle handling
When handling crumbly cookies, biscuits and crackers, manufacturers can opt for one of two technologies or even combine them: pick-and-place technology or conveyor systems.

Technology innovation not only ensures the right temperature, airflow and humidity settings, but also addresses a priceless ingredient in baking: time. Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) recently launched a new multi-pass proofer, which was designed to do both. It is designed to be flexible in function, footprint, and form.
There are clear requirements for the proofing process. The dough may be resting, but its transformation process does nothing but rest. The question is, always, how to improve the process? Technology brings new answers.
Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) installed its new electric-powered convection oven at the RBS Science & Innovation Center and is now ready for production trials.
Gerhard Schubert GmbH will showcase its automated packaging solutions at CFIA Rennes, between March 14 and 16. A new Cobot will be previewed, designed to automate feeding products to machines.
For heavy-duty
processing with consistent results, various technologies of industrial proofers accommodate the needs of
the dough and the plant itself.
Pizza and flatbreads. Naan and wraps. Pitas and handheld snacks. This is a generous and exciting product range, with ample space for new innovations. AMF Bakery Systems (AMF) designs complete systems that support all of them, with results matching artisan craft.
The consistency of perfectly formed dough depends entirely on the conditions during fermentation. DIOSNA develops pre-dough and dough fermentation systems that can ensure required parameters, with various degrees of automation.
Under the current circumstances, it has never been more important to look into ways to increase efficiency in bakeries, starting with their centerpiece: the tunnel oven.
Trends the company is considering for the design of its tunnel ovens include stone conveyor ovens, bigger lines with bigger baking surfaces to match, saving energy (heat recovery systems), and the ability to quickly swap between energy sources, from gas to electricity, or hydrogen.
Czech Republic specialist J4 looks at the optimum baking curve for a wide variety of products when designing its tunnel ovens.
Baking a vast range of high-quality products is only the start of what cutting-edge tunnel ovens can do.
