As an industrial bakery equipment company, Reading Bakery Systems manufactures innovative equipment that will meet your production needs, from mixing and baking equipment to complete turnkey systems.
Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) is a global leader in the snack food and bakery industries, serving customers who manufacture crackers, biscuits, pretzels, baked potato chips, cookies, bread snacks, baked crisps, pet treats and more.
Mixing Solutions
Depending on your level of automation, RBS offers batch and continuous mixing systems.
The Thomas L. Green Vertical Spindle Mixer is suitable for biscuit, cookie and cracker products, and doughs that require a two-stage mixing process with a fermentation period in between. The mixer allows the same dough to be mixed twice and stay in the same trough throughout the process.
Exact Continuous Mixers offer customers the ability to produce large quantities of uniform dough and, therefore, a more consistent finished product than can be accomplished with batch mixing. They come in a variety of sizes, ranging from 50 to 10,000 kg/hour, based primarily on dough moisture levels and number of mixing stages, for example:
- Exact MX Continuous Mixer is our most versatile mixer and is well suited for a wide range of products including cookies, snacks, pizza, batters, icings, and pastes.
- Exact EX Continuous Mixer is ideal for low-absorption, stiff, wheat-based doughs, such as crackers, bagels, pretzels, sweet goods and pet treats.
- Exact HDX Continuous Mixer is well-suited to ultra-high absorption doughs for buns, breads, rolls, English muffins or tortillas.
Baking & Drying
The Thomas L. Green PRISM OVEN has been trusted in the biscuit, cookie and cracker industry for more than a century. The flexible single-pass baking platform offers Direct Gas Fired (DGF) Zones, Emithermic (Radiant / Convection) Zones and Convection Zones.
When your product line involves pretzels, potato chips and other crisp baked snacks, the Reading Pretzel SPECTRUM OVEN® offers radiation, convection and conduction heat transfer options in a single modular design. The zones are built and controlled separately for more precise control of product quality.
Add a separate optional Multi-Pass Dryer for faster oven speeds, greater production throughput, and more process control. The Dryer efficiently reduces product core moistures, improving overall quality and storage characteristics.
Complete Turnkey Systems
RBS also manufactures and installs complete turnkey production systems with the latest technology to help you efficiently and profitably produce baked snacks. For example, consider our Cracker Systems, Hard & Soft Biscuit Systems, Pretzel & Snack Systems, Pet Treat Systems, and our other modern, high volume systems.
