Bakery equipment manufacturer Miwe America, LLC has introduced the MIWE FreshBakeCenter (FBC) Model 1826. Devised for supermarkets, chain restaurants, and other retailers baking at the point of sale, the Miwe FBC is an electrically heated convection oven featuring the company's automation technology that enables entry-level staff to produce high-quality, uniform baking results consistently, safely, and easily, 24/7, the company says. The in-store baking station includes preset, programmed recipes, automated start times, online remote monitoring, and control, fully automated, contactless cleaning, and the Miwe Flexbake quality system, which automatically adjusts the steam and temperature to compensate for process variations.

Available in a choice of configurations to match capacity requirements with flexibility, the Miwe FreshBakeCenter standard model oven accommodates up to 16 trays in two baking chambers for large batches while three-circuit and two-circuit variations suit small quantity production of multiple products at the same time. A novel loading trolley concept allows one worker to load and unload the entire oven or individual baking chambers quickly and easily, even in tight spaces, the brand notes.

Designed in a vertical orientation on a compact footprint, the Miwe FBC achieves a highly efficient space utilization rate to maximize revenue per square foot, the company says. In addition, a wide range of custom options such as double or triple glass glazing, POS system integration, high-performance steam units, and centralized oven fleet control systems are available. The baking station may be tested in the company's New Jersey headquarters.
