3-roll sheeter for dough forming
Achieve smooth and consistent dough sheeting crucial for high-quality biscuits, cookies, and snacks with precision compression and control, ensuring optimal results in a continuous, high-speed operation.
Sheets and Compresses Dough for Consistent Quality
The 3-Roll Sheeter from Thomas L. Green is designed for industrial bakery environments, providing precision dough sheeting for a variety of snack and baked good applications. This equipment features a unique three-roll configuration that draws and compresses dough into a uniform sheet, ideal for downstream processing such as lamination and forming. Common end-products include cheese crackers, oatmeal cookies, and granola bars, demonstrating its versatility across snacks, biscuits, and baked pet foods. With the capability to adjust sheet thickness and roll speeds mid-operation, it ensures optimal dough quality and consistency. Integrated into continuous, high-speed production lines, the 3-Roll Sheeter offers automated control with a touchscreen interface, enhancing efficiency and reducing labor costs. Built with sanitation and safety in mind, it includes roll scrapers and meets safety guidelines, ensuring compliance and easy cleaning. Additionally, its customization options and support from Reading Bakery Systems provide tailored solutions for specific production needs.
