AFT Buttering machine

• Applying butter or release agents to baking trays and tins in commercial bakeries.
• Pre-treatment of baking sheets for products such as biscuits, cakes, and pastries.
• Ensuring consistent and even coating for improved product release and reduced waste.
• Used in production lines requiring automated application of fats or oils to baking surfaces.

Typical throughput

For this class of twin-lane equipment, throughput can range from several hundred to over a thousand trays per hour, depending on product size and line speed.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, suitable for industrial environments.

Lane width

The specified 125mm lane width is common for handling standard bakery trays or multiple smaller items per lane.

Construction material

As described, a stainless steel frame is standard for food processing equipment, ensuring hygiene and durability.

Footprint (overall length)

An overall length of 1600mm suggests a compact to medium-sized unit, suitable for integration into existing production lines without requiring excessive space.
