Biscuit Forming
Soft Biscuits - For high-definition 3-D shapes, the Thomas L. Green Rotary Moulder presses dough into interchangeable die rolls and can be supplied with segmented rings for simultaneous, multi-shape production. The machine is built on lockable casters which provides portability and interchangeability with existing production line components.
Hard Biscuits – The Thomas L. Green 3-Roll Sheeter generates a consistent dough sheet ready for further thickness reduction. It can receive dough manually or from an automated handling system. Gauging Stations then ensure a gentle reduction in sheet thickness prior to shape forming. Parallel, hardened rolls typically reduce the dough sheet thickness by a 3:1 ratio from infeed to discharge. Dough flow is accurately controlled to maintain constant dough thickness.
Geometric & Distinct Shapes –The Thomas L. Green Rotary Cutting Station accurately and continuously cuts product shapes out of a single dough sheet. An integrated conveyor system moves product through - and is pressured against - a rotating die assembly. Operators have the ability to adjust the pressure on the dough sheet to ensure a thorough cut and consistent piece production.
