Baguette cutting and sauce filling system
In the bread production industry, achieving consistent and precise sauce filling in baguettes can be challenging. Manual filling processes often lead to uneven distribution and high wastage, demanding a more efficient automated solution.
Automated cutting and even sauce filling
The LFB bread filling line from GEA is an advanced system designed for cutting and injecting sauces into baked baguette loaves. The system starts by transferring baguettes onto a conveyor via an automated, robotic loading system. An adjustable, motorized saw then makes precise angled cuts into each loaf. Independent volumetric cylinders in the highly accurate depositor ensure an even distribution of sauce along each cut. The system integrates a no product, no fill recirculation mechanism that minimizes waste by halting the filling process if a baguette is missing. Post filling, another robot transfers the filled loaves to conveyor belts leading to freezing or packaging areas. This solution is ideal for bakeries looking to integrate automated, precise filling into their production lines.
