Forming Hard or Soft Biscuits

For forming hard biscuits, the Thomas L. Green 3-Roll Sheeter generates a consistent dough sheet that is ready for additional thickness reduction or lamination. It can receive dough manually, or from an automated handling system. By means of a conveyor, the newly formed dough sheet is transported into the next machine.

The Thomas L. Green Gauging Stations reduce the dough sheet thickness by a by a 3:1 ratio from infeed to discharge. Gauge rolls maintain a consistent dough thickness, and dough flow is accurately controlled to maintain dough density, laminations and finished product weights.

The Thomas L. Green Rotary Cutting Station accurately and continuously cuts scrapless geometric shapes and distinct biscuit shapes out of a single dough sheet. Scrap dough can be re-routed to the dough handling system for reuse. Single roll stations are available, and the system can be designed with two die rolls in a series to accommodate complex shape adjustment or to create different products on the same line.

For soft biscuits, the Thomas L. Green Rotary Moulder is designed to efficiently produce high definition, three dimensional biscuits, cookies, sandwich cookies, bars and pet treats. The interchangeable engraved brass die roll can be supplied with segmented rings for multiple shapes.
