Flake ice weighing and batching system for dough processing
In industrial-scale dough production, precision and consistency are essential to maintain quality and efficiency. Traditional methods of adding ice manually can be labor-intensive and prone to inaccuracies, impacting the final product’s uniformity and freshness.

Automates ice addition for precise dough mixing
The MAJA VS 07 from Marel is a reliable flake ice weighing and batching system designed specifically for dough processing. It automates the process of producing, storing, and distributing flake ice directly into mixers, ensuring precise portion control and consistent dough quality. With a compact silo system capable of holding up to 300 kg of ice, it eliminates manual handling, thereby enhancing hygiene standards. Ice batches are dispensed through discharge screws, which accurately control the weight and discharge cycles. The system can be integrated into existing production lines and managed via recipe control software, offering enhanced efficiency and accuracy in dough production.
