MLC 4.0 Block Line
The MLC 4.0 Block Line is a modular concept for producing dough blocks. It can produce dough blocks with 3 to 400 layers of fat. The line is designed for 24/7 operation.
Components of the MLC 4.0 Block Line in detail
Dough band former
- Shapes all kinds of dough into slack dough bands
- Compact modular design, movable on rollers
Fat pump
- Produces a uniform fat band
- Uses margarine or butter blocks
Overlapping belts
- Overlapping belts fold the dough band onto butter / margarine
- The fat layer is completely enclosed by dough
Satellite head
- 10 to 12 rollers gently reduce the dough band thickness thanks to the large diameter, counter-pressure roller
- The dough and fat layers remain intact
Fan-folding station
- The dough band is gently fan-folded
- Result: 2 to 10 homogeneous fat layers
End section
- The dough band is cut automatically
- Block production with 2 to 40 fat layers
From 3 - 400 fat layers – with the line of choice
