Feitelijke fabriek- en procesconfiguraties kunnen variëren, maar onze industrie-experts kennen ze allemaal.
This is where it all starts! After the dough mixer, wet dough applications begin to determine size and shape to bakery products. We offer our extensive experience for your needs in dough handling with dedicated solutions in moulding, dividing and lamination.
Belangrijkste uitdagingen
- Release can be difficult, as dough tends to adhere to the belt
- Wet dough presents hygiene control problems
- Belts can slip and/or mistrack, particularly when product residue remains on belt surface
Oplossingen
- Better release performance with non-stick material and non-stick surfaces
- Easy-to-clean and maintain belt surfaces
- Homogeneous elastic belt material and positive drive self-tracking system eliminates slippage and mistracking
De rijsfase is wellicht de meest delicate fase in het bakproces en is nodig voor alle gedesemd brood. Eventuele uitrekking van het deeg of vibratie tijdens deze fase leidt tot schade aan zowel de verschijningsvorm als de kwaliteit van het brood.
Belangrijkste uitdagingen
- Product stability can be difficult to maintain
- Product exposure to temperature and humidity levels must be controlled with precision
- Sticky dough can present cleaning and tracking problems, and can shorten belt lifetime
- Demanding operating environment can shorten belt lifetime, too
Oplossingen
- Positive drive belts for precise belt speed and smooth movement, even on multi-floor proofers
- Homogeneous belts and belts with sealed edges for easy cleaning
- Non-stick belt material for easy release without residue build-up
- High lateral belt stability and strong core elements for longer belt lifetime
Vanwege de doeltreffendheid van hun grote volumecapaciteit gecombineerd met de compacte afmetingen, geven grote broodfabrieken de voorkeur aan spiraalrijskasten.
Belangrijkste uitdagingen
- Product stability can be difficult to maintain
- Product exposure to temperature and humidity levels must be controlled with precision
- Limited space can lead to problems in operational performance
Oplossingen
- Wide range of high-performance belt designs ideal for conveying anything from delicate dough or heavy trays
- Open-surface belt design for low product-to-surface contact
- A belt with a high collapsing factor
- 2 options: Friction Drive and Superior Direct Drive System with seamless smooth engagement
Bringing the dough to the oven to be baked and taking the bread away once it has been baked is a job for smooth-running belts that can handle the heat. Our range of solutions, developed from our long industry experience, include belts designed for direct contact with your dough as well as those made for conveying very heavy hot trays.
Belangrijkste uitdagingen
- Sticky dough adheres to belt surfaces
- Extreme operating conditions, including wear and tear from conveying heavy trays, can lead to short lifetimes for belts and chains
- Black metal specks and metal oxidation can contaminate the product
- Replacing belts and chains for this application can be time-consuming
Oplossingen
- Non-stick belt materials for consistent release action
- Heat-resistant belt materials for long-lasting optimal performance
- Heavy-duty wear-resistant plastic and steel chains for conveying trays
- Quick and easy on-site splicing for Synthetic Belts, spiral lace fasteners for plastic Food Grade Belts, or truly Endless Woven Belts to avoid splice failure
Ammeraal Beltech is bekend met alle problemen in verband met het depannen van brood in allerlei vormen en maten uit bakplaten.
Belangrijkste uitdagingen
- During both lift-out and deposit, products can damage
- Reliable performance at the high speeds this application requires is difficult to maintain
- There is a risk of product pollution from broken suction cups
- Factors such as a large amount of crumbs and oil complicate operational efficiency
Oplossingen
- Individually tailored solutions for optimal performance and product protection
- A wide range of Food Grade metal-detectable suction cups and retainer rings
- Heavy-duty Food Grade belts that are resistant to both oil and abrasion
Brood moet kunnen afkoelen en de juiste hoeveelheid vocht moet uit het brood verdampen voordat de broden klaar zijn voor het snijden en verpakken. Een goede luchtcirculatie is essentieel tijdens deze periode.
Belangrijkste uitdagingen
- Open belt surfaces can retain crumbs, reducing air flow; inadequate air flow can lead to condensation, mould formation and spoilage
- Wire mesh belts can fragment and contribute contaminants to the product
- Quality consistency requires controlled and uniform cooling
Oplossingen
- Belt design that permits little or no crumb retention
- High open-area belt surface and low product-to-surface contact ratio for optimal air circulation and cooling
- Plastic material for longer lifetime with less maintenance
- 2 options: Friction Drive and Superior Direct Drive System with seamless smooth engagement
De laatste productiefase betreft versnijden, verpakken, verzegelen en het transporteren van het eindproduct naar het einde van de productielijn. Dit is ook de plaats waar de laatste inspectie, inclusief metaaldetectie en weging, plaatsvindt.
Belangrijkste uitdagingen
- Reliable belt grip is needed to prevent unwanted product movement on the belt
- Belt materials, including splices, must not set off metal detection systems
- Packaging catch can lead to bag tears, compromising Food Safety
- Downtime for belt installation or maintenance can disrupt work flow
Oplossingen
- High-grip Food Grade belt material for secure conveying
- ZipLink® technology for quick and easy metal-free on-site splicing
- Metal-detectable Modular Belts to prevent contamination
