As you evaluate commercial mixing equipment and other processing equipment for biscuit production lines, reach out to Reading Bakery Systems to find out how we can help you meet your production challenges with our innovative technology.
Reading Bakery Systems, headquartered in Robesonia, Pennsylvania, designs, engineers, and manufactures the world’s most innovative equipment for the production of biscuits, cookies, crackers, baked potato chips, pretzels, bread snacks, baked crisps, pet treats, and more, and can help you reduce labor, cut costs, and produce consistent, high-quality products.
Biscuit Mixing
Producing large quantities of uniform and consistent dough can be challenging, and batch mixing often contributes to dough variations that affect product consistency.
Is there a solution? Yes. Continuous Mixing equipment from Exact Mixing, a Reading Bakery Systems brand, accurately delivers ingredients to the mixer at rates high enough to produce a consistent, better-quality finished product.
The Exact MX Continuous Mixer is our most versatile mixer. It offers dough production rates from 50 to 2,000 kg/hour and is designed to accommodate a wide range of products, such as biscuits, cookies, snacks, muffins, batters, icings, and pastes.
Biscuit Forming Solutions
For forming hard biscuits, the Thomas L. Green 3-Roll Sheeter generates a consistent dough sheet ready for additional thickness reduction or lamination. It can receive dough manually or from an automated handling system.
The Thomas L. Green Gauging Stations reduce the dough sheet thickness by a 3:1 ratio from infeed to discharge. Gauge rolls maintain a consistent dough thickness, and dough flow is accurately controlled to maintain dough density, laminations, and finished product weights.
The Thomas L. Green Rotary Cutting Station accurately and continuously cuts scrapless geometric shapes and distinct biscuit shapes out of a single dough sheet. Scrap dough can be re-routed to the dough handling system for reuse. Single roll stations are available, and the system can be designed with two or more die rolls in a series to accommodate complex shape adjustment or create different products on the same line.
For soft biscuits, the Thomas L. Green Rotary Moulder is designed to efficiently produce high definition, three-dimensional biscuits, cookies, sandwich cookies, and pet treats. The interchangeable engraved brass die roll can be supplied with segmented rings for multiple shapes.
