Automatic wafer baking machine for high-capacity production

Streamline your wafer and snack production with a high-speed solution designed for precise baking and seamless integration into your current process flow.

Produces and Bakes Various Wafer Types

The Wafer Baking Machine BAC from HEBENSTREIT is a versatile, fully automatic system engineered for efficient production of various wafer products, including flat, coated, and hollow wafers. Utilizing robust baking tong technology, it ensures precise control over wafer thickness with a tolerance of just +/- 0.1 mm, enabling consistent quality across batches. With a capacity of up to 65 wafer sheets per minute, the BAC machine supports large-scale operations and continuous production lines in food manufacturing. Its heating system offers flexible fuel options, using natural or LPG gas, and features a separated heating chamber to enhance maintenance intervals and bearing life. The integrated laser cleaning system automates the cleaning of baking plates, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual methods and ensuring long-term surface integrity. Designed for seamless integration, the machine is compatible with PLC systems, allowing for streamlined automation and monitoring. Available options in material construction cater to diverse industry standards, making it ideal for confectionery, bakery, and snack production environments.
