Sweet or savory, pies are a perennial favorite among consumers. Highly specialized production lines are developed to ensure production meets quantity as well as quality needs, efficiently.
For the production of cakes and pies, AMF Bakery Systems provides a modular system developed by AMF Tromp, which includes an AMF Den Boer tunnel oven. In this structure, automated lines can be customized for various needs and capacities.
As gluten-free bakery is decisively increasing its foothold into the mainstream market, growing by about 25% each year, research seeks to improve product taste, texture and nutritional profiles.
A continuous kneading and mixing process ensures all types of ingredients are mixed and kneaded in the optimum sequence to produce the desired product with consistent characteristics while saving time, resources and minimizing waste.
Scoring is a process that requires skill and shows the baker’s experience when done manually. Alternatively, as labor is becoming harder to find (and then keep), robots can efficiently take over the task; they will never need to stop and will perform constantly over time.
Consultant Thomas Ismar of Zeppelin Systems GmbH says: “We haven’t re-invented bun production, but we have made it more efficient and more flexible at the same time.”
