Rondo - 26ft make up line with twin cut station

• Producing a variety of pastries, breads, and other dough-based products in bakeries.
• Forming and cutting dough sheets for pies, tarts, and other confectionery items.
• Manufacturing ready meals components requiring precise dough portioning and shaping.
• Creating consistent product sizes for industrial food processing lines.
• Producing laminated dough products such as croissants and Danish pastries.

Typical line length

Make-up lines of this type commonly range from 6 to 12 metres, with this unit being at the upper end of that range.

Throughput

Throughput for this class of equipment typically depends on product complexity and operator efficiency, often achieving several hundred pieces per hour.

Power supply

Units of this nature commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz.

Air supply

Pneumatic components are often present, requiring a compressed air supply, typically 6-8 bar.

Material compatibility

Designed for processing various dough types, from shortcrust to laminated doughs.

Footprint

A 26ft (approximately 8m) make-up line with a twin cut station will require a significant linear footprint within a production area.

Tooling

Versatility is often enhanced by a range of interchangeable tooling for different product shapes and sizes.

• What is a make-up line?

  A make-up line is an automated or semi-automated system used in bakeries and food production to form, cut, and process dough into finished or semi-finished products.
