Continuous wafer oven
Optimize your wafer production with precise temperature control and efficient energy use, minimizing gas consumption and emissions while ensuring high-quality output across a variety of wafer types.

Bakes and Controls Temperature for Wafer Production
The Franz Haas SWAKT-Eco from Bühler Group is an industrial wafer baking oven designed for efficient and consistent production of flat and hollow wafers. This oven stands out with its innovative heating system controlled via a PLC, allowing real-time temperature adjustments to maintain optimal wafer quality without halting production. It serves food and confectionery industries by reducing gas consumption by up to 30% and lowering emissions by 90%, thanks to its fully insulated baking zone. Its modular design supports flexible expansion from 32 to 128 baking plates, catering to diverse production needs. The SWAKT-Eco integrates seamlessly into high-speed production lines, ensuring minimal downtime with its top-mounted burners that prevent waste accumulation. The oven is engineered for energy efficiency, contributing to a sustainable production environment, and provides opportunity for customization to meet specific operational requirements.
