Remote maintenance
Remote Guidance from Franz Haas is based on augmented reality technology that helps technical personnel solve machine issues with the help of Haas
service personnel. An image of the machine and technician is sent to a Haas
customer support specialist through video and audio connection. The Haas
specialist then instructs the technician on what to analyze to find the root of the
issue. This service significantly shortens waiting times for direct professional
technical assistance.

Efficient metal detection
Mettler-Toledo's RT Mode enables a significant reduction in the frequency of
metal detector testing. A company currently testing metal detector function every
two hours can extend this to every 12 hours. The on-board technology analyzes
the performance of all critical components within the system to ensure proper
operation. The system tracks and identifies any elements that may lead to a
reduction in performance, reducing the need for frequent testing throughout
production runs.

High-speed croissant lines
The new Rademaker Croissant Machine is capable of molding straight croissants at 150 rows per minute and at capacities in excess of 100,000 pieces per
hour. The machine's design is fully washdown for ease of sanitation. Changeover
time has also been reduced with fewer and easier-to-use changeover parts and
by use of Unique Fit Tooling. The croissant make-up line can be completed with
equipment to produce filled croissants as well as automation for bending, pinching and panning.

Complete product drying
The Reading Bakery Systems Pretzel Multi-Pass Dryer efficiently reduces product core moisture, improving overall quality and storage characteristics. Inside
the dryer, products pass along three different conveyors while hot air is forced
through the product pile from above or below the conveyor belt. Air is heated in
the penthouse above the dryer and forced through the plenums surrounding the
conveyor belts. The penthouse is split into two chambers so the two zones can be
supplied with air circulated at different speeds and temperatures.

Gentle, high-speed dividing
The Vemag bun and roll divider from Reiser provides scaling accuracy and quality across multiple lanes. The dough divider features a double-screw portioning
system that provides highly accurate scaling with minimal work on the product.
The infeed system and the double-screws now allow the Vemag to produce exactweight portions with even less work on the product. It delivers consistent, accurate scaling across four, six, eight or more lanes without the need for operators to
dial in valves or motors.
