Comas - Tartomatic Denester – Single Lane Tool Set

• Automated separation and placement of pre-formed pastry cases onto a conveyor.
• Integration into production lines for tarts, pies, quiches, and other baked goods.
• High-volume bakeries and food manufacturing facilities requiring consistent product handling.
• Reducing manual labour in repetitive denesting tasks.

Typical throughput

Units of this type commonly operate at speeds suitable for high-volume production lines, typically ranging from 30 to 60 cycles per minute, depending on the product and line speed.

Power supply

Denesters are typically integrated into existing line controls and may require a pneumatic supply, with electrical power commonly 230V or 400V, 3-phase, for associated control systems.

Footprint

A single lane tool set is designed to be compact, fitting within an existing conveyor line, with the main unit typically requiring a footprint of around 1m x 0.5m, plus space for access.

Material compatibility

This equipment is designed for use with various pre-formed pastry cases, including foil, paper, or plastic, provided they are rigid enough for automated handling.

Integration

Units are designed for seamless integration with existing conveyor systems and upstream/downstream processing equipment.

Maintenance requirements

Routine cleaning and periodic inspection of pneumatic components and moving parts are typically required to ensure consistent operation.

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
