Reading Bakery Systems, headquartered in Robesonia, Pennsylvania, is ready to help you meet your industrial bakery process and product challenges with high quality automation.
Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) proudly offers the world’s most advanced commercial baking equipment from Thomas L. Green (which has supplied the biscuit, cracker, and cookie industries since 1893), Exact Mixing (the world’s most innovative developer of Continuous Mixing solutions), and Reading Bakery Systems (whose long history of oven manufacturing expertise dates back to 1947).
Turnkey Production Systems
RBS’ turnkey production systems create sheeted and rotary moulded products and have the flexibility to integrate batch or continuous mixing.
Our modern, high volume Cracker System enables you to create straight sheeted, dual sheeted, and laminated crackers. Sheeting systems can range from 600mm to 1.5m in width, and production volumes range from 200-5500 kg/hr depending on oven length, width and product type.
The Multi-Crisp Baked Snack System enables you to produce a variety of wheat, potato, multi-grain and corn masa flour crisps on one flexible system. The system can produce 250-1000 kg/hr of finished product, depending on the number of oven sections after the dough sheeting equipment.
Dough Mixing Innovations
Our Exact Mixing brand offers several models of Continuous Mixers that solve the common problem of undesirable dough variations during batch mixing by providing a consistent, uniform dough stream to your production line at the same rate that it is being used. For example:
Our most versatile mixer is the Exact Mixing MX Continuous Mixer. Use it for a wide range of products including pizza, cookies, snacks, batters, icings, and pastes. It is also an ideal first stage mixer for processes that require creme up and pre-blend stages.
Another excellent option is the Exact Mixing EX Continuous Mixer, which is ideal for crackers, pretzels, pie crusts, pet treats and a variety of other wheat-based snacks. It uniformly mixes products with a variety of dough moisture levels.
The Exact Mixing HDX Continuous Mixer is well-suited to ultra-high absorption doughs, such as buns, breads, rolls, English muffins and similar products.
Flexible, High-Quality Ovens
The Thomas L. Green PRISM OVEN has been trusted in the biscuit, cookie and cracker industry for over 125 years. It is a flexible single-pass baking platform designed to enhance product consistency. Features include:
- Direct gas fired (DGF), convection, and Emithermic (radiant / convection) baking zones
- Repeatable control of time, temperature, humidity and type of heat transfer
- Better baking efficiency with uniform quality, color, taste and texture
The Reading Pretzel SPECTRUM OVEN® offers the same flexibility as the PRISM OVEN but for pretzels, bread snacks, baked crisps and potato snacks. It features:
- Radiation, convection and conduction heat transfer options
- Separate heating zones for more precise control
- Repeatable control of time, temperature, humidity and type of heat transfer
A separate optional Multi-Pass Dryer provides faster oven speeds, greater production throughput, and more process control. The Dryer efficiently reduces product core moistures, improving overall quality and storage characteristics.
