Healthier snacks, particularly granola bars, have grown in popularity. As Reading Bakery Systems continues to help customers capitalize on consumer trends and maximize their operations, we have designed the new Granola Production System that incorporates efficiency, reliability, and flexibility to help our customers optimize production.
Located in Robesonia, Pennsylvania, Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) has been at the forefront of industrial baking systems and technology for more than 125 years. We manufacture technologically advanced commercial bakery equipment, including continuous mixing equipment and the world’s most advanced commercial oven systems.
In addition to individual equipment, RBS manufactures and installs complete turnkey production systems that feature the latest technology and can help you efficiently and profitably produce your snack foods.
The RBS Granola Production System
RBS has designed the new Granola Production System with efficiency, reliability, and flexibility in mind to help our customers optimize their production. It includes:
AMF Batch Mixer (not manufactured by RBS): The Specialty Sigma Arm Mixer from AMF offers maximum flexibility and unmatched reliability for a variety of dough types. Specifically designed for lower capacity mixing, AMF’s complete dough system provides low maintenance, labor-free dough handling for the most consistent dough, batch after batch.
Omega IV Dispenser with kibbler shafts: Irregular sized topping materials are easily handled by the Omega IV Dispenser. The live bottom product hopper funnels the toppings toward the distribution conveyor without bridging or clumping. An optional photo-eye sensor mounted above the hopper ensures that the operator is kept apprised of the product level for consistent and continuous operation. A conveyor acts as the product distributor at the bottom of the Dispenser.
Guillotine Cutter: The Reading Pretzel Guillotine Cutter and Slitter are designed to uniformly cut products before or after baking. Accurate cutting control allows the operator to create a product size as short as one inch (25 mm) with the press of a button. Cutters can be built as stand-alone machines or integrated into an existing production frame and control system.
PRISM Emithermic Oven: The Thomas L. Green PRISM OVEN is a single-pass baking platform designed with flexibility for balanced and consistent baking. The Emithermic Zone (Radiant/Convection) zone offers both radiant and convective heat transfer and a humidity-controlled product zone that directly surrounds the product while baking. It provides bakers with greater control over product development and spread, particularly when baking cookies and granola bars.
