Continuous baking in industrial bakeries answers production needs for volumes and consistency over time. However, it comes with several challenges that need to be managed to ensure efficiency, product quality and profitability.
As flatbreads grew to become a valued staple worldwide, technology has provided answers to all its production challenges, to match traditional handcrafting techniques.
There are numerous challenges in integrating solutions for a turnkey project, starting with ensuring compatibility between various pieces of equipment. These include meeting specific production needs and maintaining high standards of quality and efficiency throughout the process.
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.
While recipe variations for baguettes and bread rolls are not only to be expected but also make for unique selling points, high hydration rates and long dough resting times are the calling card of more sophisticated, authentic premium products.
ABI will exhibit its KATANA multi-purpose robot scoring solution, which now also offers a waterjet scoring tool. The Toronto-based company will also present Eye-Q, its new AI-enabled complete quality control system, providing product quality analysis across different stages of production.
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.
The Dutch ‘silo to truck’ solutions manufacturer develops production lines for all kinds of freestanding bread, with a capacity of around 7,500 kg/h, depending on the production process, type of end products and available space.
Koenig has recently developed a scoring unit powered by Artificial Intelligence, with the help of 3D scanners and cameras.
Automated scoring systems consistently execute cuts, using conventional cutting, ultrasonic cutting, or waterjet technology.
Replicating traditional methods of preparing buns, bagels and rolls on an industrial scale is a task with an extensive list of challenges, to achieve high-volume, consistent results. Flexibility and innovation joined in dedicated production lines help provide the answers for endless product variations.
