Breadstick machines
In the world of baking, where efficiency and precision are of vital importance, there are machines that revolutionise the production process and make life easier and more productive for bakeries, pastry shops and restaurants. One of these essential tools is the breadstick machine: a device capable of transforming dough into delicious crispy breadsticks.
But how do they work? And why are they so important for bakeries, pastry shops and restaurants? Dive with us into the fascinating world of breadstick machines: let us discover together the advantages and secrets of these incredible tools.
WHAT ARE BREADSTICK MACHINES AND WHAT ARE THEY USED FOR?
Breadstick machines are professional machines used mainly in bakery, pastry and restaurant workshops for the production of breadsticks, biscuits and pastry sheets of various sizes.
Breadstick machines serve to simplify and speed up the breadstick production process: they handle both soft and hard doughs and are equipped with an adjustable calender to regulate the thickness of the dough before it enters the die. The cutting of the dough can be done with a manual electric control or programmed with a timer for continuous breadstick production: they are equipped with a laminating unit that prepares dough pieces approximately 1.5 metres long and of varying thickness.
CHARACTERISTICS OF BREADSTICK MACHINES
Breadstick machines can be of three types: manual, semi-automatic, and automatic.
- Manual breadstick machines, as the name suggests, require manual intervention to produce breadsticks. They are ideal for daily, artisanal production of fresh breadsticks, taralli, and other round-section pastries.
- Semi-automatic and automatic breadstick machines, on the other hand, are equipped with an automatic cutting system that allows breadsticks to be cut to the desired length by simply moving a lever. Automatic breadstick machines, in particular, are equipped with an electronic control panel that makes it easy to set the length and cutting times. These machines are made of stainless steel and mounted on wheels, making them easy to move.
AUTOMATIC BREADSTICK MACHINES
The automatic breadstick machine is designed to produce breadsticks efficiently and with minimal human intervention. But how does the automatic breadstick machine work?
- The dough is placed on the feed roller conveyor and fed into the die, which can come in different diameters to produce breadsticks of various sizes. The length of the breadsticks is adjusted using a timer on the control panel.
- Once the desired length is reached, the machine stops and cutting is done automatically.
- The breadstick machine then resumes the production cycle until the operator presses the stop button.
Automatic breadstick machines can be equipped with an exit conveyor belt, which facilitates the transport of the produced breadsticks to the next stage of the process, such as panning or baking. The speed of the exit conveyor can be adjusted to suit different types of products and to avoid stretching of the breadsticks.
MAINTENANCE OF BREADSTICK MACHINES
Cleaning and maintenance of the breadstick machine is essential to ensure the proper functioning of the machine and the quality of the breadsticks produced.
- Cleaning. It is important to remove with a vacuum cleaner any dough residue that might accumulate in the various parts of the machine, such as the die and forming rollers. In addition, surfaces in contact with the dough, which may be stainless steel or Teflon, should be cleaned regularly to maintain hygiene.
- Maintenance. The control units are usually protected and positioned for easy access during maintenance. It is important to regularly check the mechanical parts of the machine, such as the rollers and the die, to ensure that they are in good condition and functioning properly. In case of wear or malfunction, these parts should be replaced.
Maintenance and cleaning of the breadstick machine should be carried out according to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure the longevity and efficiency of the machine.
In conclusion, breadstick machines are indispensable tools for anyone who wants to produce breadsticks efficiently and professionally. For more information about these products, contact us! We are always available to guide you in choosing the best machine for you and your needs.
