Sheeting lines for biscuit and cracker production
Producing high-quality hard sweet biscuits and crackers demands precise control over dough sheeting and uniform thickness. The challenge is to balance different viscosities and textures of dough while ensuring stress-free processing and consistent results.
Ensures consistent dough thickness and stress-free sheeting
The GEA sheeting line is a versatile system designed for the precise production of biscuits and crackers. It can handle different dough viscosities and textures, ensuring a stress-free sheeting process and optimal dough thickness. This line is equipped with modular forming units that can be tailored to meet various processing requirements, including horizontal and vertical configurations with multiple gauge rolls. The built-in pressure gauge units automatically adjust the feeding roller speed, maintaining uniform dough weight through the rolls. GEA offers a range of technologies, including cut and sheet lamination systems, rotary systems for embossing and cutting, and scrap pick-up conveyors. The automated control systems optimize operating parameters and fine-tune working conditions without manual intervention. An automatic dough-sheet loop control system monitors dough tension, ensuring consistent dough thickness and texture. The user interface displays all working parameters and conditions, and supports various PLC brands for user-friendly interaction. GEA, a leading supplier in food and beverage sectors, backs this system with comprehensive services.
