New Rotary Moulder Launched at Interpack
Date: 20 December 2007
New EM390 joins the range
Baker Perkins will emphasise the continual evolution and development of their high-efficiency biscuit production plant at Interpack (Hall 2 Stand A03).
A rotary moulder new to the European market will be on show, typifying the reliable, easy to use equipment with the notably low cost of ownership for which the company is renowned.
Baker Perkins is an acknowledged leader in biscuit process know-how and production equipment: newly completed contracts are providing major capacity extensions to customers in Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and the USA.
The EM 390 rotary moulder combines an unrivalled range of standard features and options. The high-specification basic machine gives tight piece weight control, with easy cleaning and rapid changeovers providing cost savings and reduced downtime to make payback extremely attractive.
For more challenging production environments any of 15 options can be added for enhanced performance and ease of use.
The EM390 handles moulded biscuits, bars, mini cookies and pet food. It has the flexibility that low to medium output producers need to make a range of products, and the output capability for larger companies to produce a single brand at high speed.
Whatever the choice, low capital and ownership costs contribute to a healthy bottom line.
A moulding roll on display illustrates Baker Perkins ability to combine the latest technology with a depth of process know-how, ensuring that new and replacement rolls and dies run cleanly and reliably to make a significant contribution to line efficiency.
Rolls and dies are critical parts of the biscuit forming process. In combination with the forming machine they set the product size, weight and thickness, as well as imparting a unique design or brand to the product.
Baker Perkins comprehensive service in the design and engineering of new and replacement parts often leads to the exchange of an old outer sleeve with a new design, effectively recycling it for a second life.
Baker Perkins harnesses the latest techniques for fast-track manufacture, ensuring that new products can be brought to market as rapidly as possible.
The HS mixer blade at Interpack introduces the upgraded range of Baker Perkins mixers for the biscuit industry. The capacity of each mixer in the range has been increased and the names have been changed from 550HS, 850HS and 1100HS to HS-1, HS-2 and HS-3 respectively
The Variable Speed mixing option brings major advantages compared with conventional 2-speed mixers, with the potential to improve product consistency and operational efficiency.
The ability to select mixing speed at will means that a mixing profile can be developed to match the characteristics of each type of dough. It also gives a ‘soft start’ with less noise, vibration and maintenance.
Baker Perkins multi-purpose batch mixers are suitable for hard and soft dough types.
The unique shaftless blade design ensures excellent dispersion and rapid dough development.
