Sheeting lines for biscuit and cracker production
Enhance your bakery production efficiency with advanced sheeting technology that ensures precise dough thickness and stress-free processing, ideal for crafting a variety of high-quality biscuits and crackers.
Processes and Sheets Dough for Biscuits and Crackers
The GEA sheeting lines offer precise and versatile solutions for bakery producers, biscuit manufacturers, and food processing plants seeking efficient dough processing. These lines facilitate the sheeting, forming, and conveying of various dough types to produce a wide array of biscuits and crackers, from cream crackers to vanilla wafers. Employing modular forming units and advanced gauge roll systems, GEA sheeting lines ensure uniform dough thickness and minimize stress, thanks to automatic control systems that adjust feeding roller speeds and maintain dough tension. Capable of handling diverse viscosities and textures, the equipment integrates seamlessly into high-speed, automated production lines. With options for space-saving vertical configurations and features like rotary embossing and cutting systems, these sheeting lines come equipped with auxiliary systems for ingredient sprinkling and weight control. The use of most PLC brands ensures user-friendly operation, while the automatic dough-sheet loop control keeps the production consistent. Tailoring options allow for customization to meet specific processing requirements, providing industry-leading reliability and efficiency.
