Dough Forming Solutions
Whether your pet treats are extruded, rotary moulded, sheeted, or in stick or nugget form, RBS has a solution that is designed and engineered to meet your needs.
Extruded: The Reading Pretzel Low Pressure (LP) Extruder enables you to produce consistent and accurate structural, flat and filled extruded shapes and sticks. Fit the Extruder with different compression heads and dies to expand your product range.
Rotary Moulded: The Thomas L. Green Rotary Moulder produces high definition, 3-D shapes by pressing dough into a die roll. Engraved brass die rolls are interchangeable and can be supplied with segmented rings for simultaneous, multiple shape production.
Sheeted: The Thomas L. Green Sheeter creates a consistent dough sheet for sheeted pet treats, and Gauging Stations ensure accurate thickness prior to shape forming. Scrapless geometric shapes and distinct shapes can be formed with the Rotary Cutting Station.
Sticks/Nuggets: The single-blade Reading Pretzel Guillotine Cutter uniformly cuts products before or after baking, allowing the operator to create a product size as short as one inch (25 mm) at the push of a button.
Mixing Solutions
The Exact EX Continuous Mixer is ideal for both soft/chewy and hard/crunchy pet food and treats. It uniformly mixes dough with a variety of dough moisture levels.Dough can be quickly heated to the proper kill temperature within a range of one degree and then cooled.This is done automatically and with no handling or manual transporting of the dough.
If you are tired of undesirable variations in your dough from batch to batch, consider switching from batch mixing to Continuous Mixing. Continuous Mixing offers many advantages, particularly in its ability to produce more consistent dough with less labor and energy.
Baking & Drying Solutions
Reading Pretzel SPECTRUM OVEN® customers benefit from a variety of heat transfer combinations in one modular design. The single-pass convection baking platform features operator-controlled air temperature, circulation speed, exhaust, and moisture removal for reliable, consistent baking of pet treats. Add an optional Reading Pretzel Multi-Pass Dryer for faster oven speeds, greater production throughput, and more process control.
