Companies have been releasing a wide range of new ovens and proofers suited to snack and bakery operations, and the diversity is sure to cultivate a strong level of appeal across the board. This new range of equipment focuses on ease of use, technical improvements, better sanitary design and new levels of efficiency.
“With our equipment’s precise oven zone temperature, bakers are in control of the ‘bake’,” says Mike Day, president, Banner-Day, Saginaw, MI. “This results in optimized oven operation and high-quality, consistent and efficiently produced products.” The company notes that Banner-Day’s TOC (Total Oven Control) solution featuring its SmartBake burner and temperature control technology is able to achieve precise zone temperature control in direct-fired oven applications, and its oven zone temperatures are maintained between +/- 2°F of its set point.
