Gauging Stations

Precise dough sheet reduction

The Thomas L. Green Gauging Station is a fundamental machine in most cracker, biscuit, pizza or chip production lines. Parallel, hardened rolls typically reduce the dough sheet thickness by a 3:1 ratio from infeed to discharge.The gap between the rolls can be monitored by the control system and automatically adjusted to maintain constant dough thickness.
