Every season sparks pie joy
Whether the pies have an open top – covered with various ingredients, or are closed with dough, lattice, or crumble, the technology needs to produce excellent results no matter the recipe and material changes.

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.
Dough folding, dough rolling and, most importantly, dough separating: the quality of several product ranges relies on perfect, consistent laminating and sheeting.
An entire fleet of iconic crackers built its consumer base on their open, flaky texture, which is produced by layering the dough. Reading Bakery Systems designed a new, 90-degree technology concept for the laminators manufacturing this dough.
No two sourdoughs are the same; its value lies in its diversity. Perfecting different sourdough specialties relies on process accuracy and stability, with optimum kneading and mixing parameters for each type of product.
Fully automating kneading and mixing is an ambitious endeavor, given the complexity of the process, and the diversity of raw ingredients.
When choosing the optimum equipment to perfect the process, technologies for batch and continuous mixing can bring the best-suited functionalities for each product range, manufacturing plant and operation.
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.
Better-for-you preferences also apply to bread. Several mixing options help increase production volumes while providing goods that still feel and taste artisan-made.
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).
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.
