A modern biscuit factory’s production line is a fully automated, continuous system that processes flour, sugar, fat, and other ingredients into packaged, finished biscuits in one go.
Core Functions & Key Components
A complete production line performs a series of continuous operations:
Stage | Function | Key Equipment |
Raw Material Handling | Storage, transportation, and precise weighing of ingredients like flour, sugar, fats, water, and leavening agents. | Silos, Sifters, Weighing Hoppers, Liquid Tanks, Pneumatic Conveying Systems. |
Dough Mixing | Blending ingredients in a specific order to form a homogeneous dough with the correct consistency and texture. | Horizontal or Vertical Mixers (Dough Kneaders). |
Dough Feeding | Transferring the mixed dough to the forming stage consistently and without degradation. | Dough Conveyors, Hopper Feeders. |
Forming & Molding | Shaping the dough into specific biscuit shapes (e.g., rounds, squares, animals, rotary molded designs). |
|
Baking | The heart of the process. Applying controlled heat to set the structure, develop flavor, color, and texture. | Multi-Zone Tunnel Oven. |
Cooling | Gradually reducing the biscuit’s temperature and internal moisture to a level suitable for packaging without becoming soggy. | Multi-Tier Cooling Conveyors. |
Topping & Sandwiching | (Optional) Adding cream, chocolate, jam, or icing between two biscuits or on top. | Cream Sandwiching Machine, Chocolate Enrober, Spraying/Topping Systems. |
Packaging | Weighing, grouping, and protecting the final product for shelf life, branding, and distribution. | Multi-head Weighers, Flow Wrappers, Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) machines, Cartoners. |
