Energy efficiency may be just part of the equation when selecting a type of belt, but it is an increasingly important one given the dramatic rise in energy costs that the world is currently experiencing.

Reliable product transfer between processes is essential to maintaining the rhythm in production sequences, with continuous, automated adjustments. To optimize efficiency in industrial baking, everything is riding on conveyor systems.
Ashworth will launch a new smart solution at IBIE this year, the Smart Oven monitoring system, joining the Smart Spiral in this range.
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.
With over 8,000 new patisserie product launches every year, the challenge for industrial bakers is to diversify their offers by developing innovative creations that also pass nutritional checkpoints and provide an exciting eating experience, through an efficient manufacturing process.
Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) introduced a new ambient cooling conveyor, with increased efficiency in cooling crackers before entering packaging in a moreโcompact footprint.
Conveyor systems work under demanding conditions in bakeries. Maintaining them in top shape is the first step to efficiency in production; upgrades will then guarantee optimum performance in handling processes for truly competitive-level manufacturing.
Notable examples we looked into include Koenigโs new generation of roll lines โ the KGV Plus, and the latest addition, KGV EC that was just launched at iba.CONNECTING EXPERTS mid-March.
A versatile piece of equipment that can be used for all processes requiring controlled temperatures is the spiral. For this technology, Ashworth developed the SmartSpiralยฎ Monitoring System, an application that provides real-time monitoring of multiple spirals, even over different facilities.

Consumers are not just hungry for any cakes, but are seeking diversity and sensory experiences in their choices. The technology behind baking such options needs more flexibility.
Ashworth provides recommendations in terms of materials, design, and engineering. The choice will be the result of an extensive checklist and case-by-case analysis.
