Mixers and Ovens

Continuous Mixers: Exact Mixing Continuous Mixers come in all sizes, from 50 to 10,000 kg/hour, and are available based primarily on dough moisture levels or dough mixing stages.

Similarly, the Reading Pretzel SPECTRUM OVEN® provides the same level of flexibility as the PRISM OVEN for baking a variety of snacks, including pretzels, bread snacks, baked crisps, and potato snacks. The SPECTRUM OVEN® features a single-pass baking platform that is highly flexible and designed to improve product consistency.

Complete Snack Production Systems

Our complete Multi-Crisp Baked Snack System enables you to produce a variety of wheat, potato, and corn masa flour crisps with one flexible system. The system can produce 250-1000 kg/hr of finished product, depending on the number of oven sections after the dough sheeting equipment.

Dough hydration can be challenging when using gluten-free and other non-traditional flours, but RBS’ cutting-edge Hydrobond Technology makes your mixing process more efficient. It instantly blends dry and wet ingredients with unmatched efficiency without adding heat to your dough.

The Pretzel & Snack System integrates the Reading Pretzel Low Pressure (LP) Extruder, enabling you to create various pretzel shapes, sticks, braids, filled sticks, and bread snacks on one production line. Product changeover is as simple as exchanging different compression heads and die shapes.

Our Wirecut Cookie System offers efficient, reliable production of a wide range of cookies, biscuits, and bars. Its main component, the Thomas L. Green Independence Wirecut Machine, provides piece-weight accuracy and reliability and can uniformly cut individual shapes at up to 300 cuts per minute.

The Fried Potato Ring System is ideal for the flexible, efficient, high-volume production of extrusion-based fried snacks, including the popular fried potato ring product. It can produce from 200-1000 kg/hr of finished product.
