Automatic Toast Bread Production Line with Servo Divider and Intermediate Proofer for Sandwich Bread Plants

Product Overview

This bread production line covers the dividing and pre-forming stages of toast and sandwich bread production: the 4P servo divider portions dough from 200 to 560 g in the 2-outlet mode, the rounder tightens each piece, and the intermediate proofer relaxes the gluten under controlled temperature and humidity before the pieces are sheeted and panned. Stable weight control at the divider is what keeps loaf-to-loaf variation low in the finished toast bread.

The 4P servo divider is built on a Japanese servo motor, PLC and inverter, a precision linear guide and imported bearings, with a high-accuracy metering oil pump. With 2 outlets it handles 200-560 g pieces; with 8 outlets it handles 20-110 g pieces. Output ranges from 600 to 12,000 pieces per hour depending on outlet quantity and portion weight (calculated at a specific gravity of 1.20 g/cm3). The whole line runs on 380 V three-phase power and occupies a footprint of 23,000 mm in length.

Applications

• Sandwich toast bread plants with pan lines downstream
• Large loaf programs using the 2-outlet 200-560 g dividing mode
• Plants producing both loaves and buns by switching outlet modes
• Bakeries feeding sheeting and panning equipment after the proofer
• Central kitchens supplying standardized loaf dough to several plants

Technical Specifications

Advantages

• 2-outlet mode covers 200-560 g loaf portions with servo weight accuracy
• Intermediate proofer (5500 x 1780 x 2600 mm) relaxes dough for uniform sheeting
• Precision metering oil pump supports stable divider performance across shifts
• One line covers loaves and small pieces by changing outlet quantity

FAQ

1. What portion weights can the line handle?
From 20 g to 560 g. With 2 outlets the divider produces 200-560 g pieces; with 8 outlets it produces 20-110 g pieces. Weight is controlled by the servo-driven cutting system with a precision metering oil pump.

2. What portion weights are used for toast loaves?
Toast pieces typically run in the 2-outlet mode at 200-560 g; the servo cutting system with precision metering oil pump keeps piece weight consistent across the batch.

3. What is the hourly output?
600 to 12,000 pieces per hour depending on outlet quantity and portion weight, calculated at a specific gravity of 1.20 g/cm3. An 8-outlet setting at small piece weights reaches the top of the range.

4. What electrical and control standards are used?
All machines run on 380 V three-phase power. The divider uses a Japanese servo motor, PLC and inverter; the proofer and forming machine use a German PLC with imported motors and chains; linear guides are Japanese and bearings are Swiss-made.

5. Can the line connect to panning equipment?
Yes. After the intermediate proofer, pieces are conveyed to downstream sheeting and panning machines; the proofer output height and speed are matched to the line rhythm.
