Applications & Use Cases

• Producing a wide range of soft and hard dough biscuits and cookies.
• Manufacturing crackers and other baked snack products.
• Used in large-scale bakeries and food manufacturing plants.
• Suitable for continuous production lines requiring high throughput.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput commonly ranges from 500 kg/hr to several tonnes/hr, depending on product type and line configuration.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz in the UK, with varying amperage requirements based on motor sizes.

Footprint

Complete lines, such as this 11-metre unit, commonly require significant floor space, often extending beyond the stated length due to ancillary equipment.

Product versatility

Many cookie lines are designed with interchangeable dies and depositors to produce various shapes and types of cookies and biscuits.

Automation level

Modern lines typically feature a high degree of automation for mixing, forming, baking, cooling, and sometimes packaging.

Maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning, lubrication, and inspection of moving parts, belts, and oven components are typically required to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
