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.
To transfer the traditional manufacturing process to high-end industrial output, Rademaker transformed the production process of this originally handcrafted specialty into an industrial production solution that maintains the crispy crust and airy structure of the pinsa.
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.

Automated scoring systems consistently execute cuts, using conventional cutting, ultrasonic cutting, or waterjet technology.
From viennoiserie to Danish pastry, and any number of hybrid, new creations, laminated dough is the path to the sought-after airy, light layers.
Precision and consistency are required to turn blocks of dough into thin, delicate sheets.
