Automating bakeware handling saves time and precious human resources. It also ensures that trays, pans and tins are handled exactly as instructed by the tray and coating manufacturers, time and again.
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.
