Automatic loader for irregular shaped cookies

Optimize your bakery line operation by efficiently loading non-uniform cookies with precision and speed, handling up to 1,000 products per minute while ensuring seamless integration with packaging systems.

Handles and Loads Irregular-Shaped Cookies Efficiently

The LINEMASTER by Royal Houdijk is designed specifically for high-speed loading of non-uniform ‘home-made’ shaped bakery products, such as wire cut cookies, into trays or flowpack systems. Its open design facilitates easy operation, change-over, and maintenance. The LINEMASTER efficiently processes up to 1,000 products per minute, ensuring smooth automated handling and slug building through its SLUGMASTER overhead flightbar conveyor. Integrated with TRAYMASTER, the system synchronizes tray handling for seamless dosing into tray cells, accommodating quick changes between different tray configurations. Offered in three configurations, including dual mode, it maximizes flexibility and productivity in food and bakery packaging lines. The system’s HMI allows for easy adjustment of settings to cater to specific production needs.
