It is important for novice entrepreneurs to understand that it is difficult to open a bakery without the right set of equipment. Modern bakery equipment automates basic processes and makes bakery production stable and predictable. Even a small establishment requires a basic set of machines that help save staff time and effort.
Dough mixers
The baker's main assistant is a dough mixer. It is he who is responsible for kneading the dough, on which the quality of the bread depends. When buying, it is important to consider the capacity of the bowl and the engine power. Among the reliable brands are Hurakan and Abat.
Dough rolling machines
If the range includes puff pastry or yeast pastries, then the dough roller will become indispensable. The machine quickly rolls out a layer of uniform thickness, speeding up the preparation of workpieces. Apach and Abat have proven themselves well in the market.
Bread slicers
A bread slicer is required for packaged bread. It forms even slices and saves employees time. Popular brands in this category are Hurakan, JAC, Janissary. When choosing, it is worth considering the speed of operation and the number of cutting modes.
Rotary kilns
Rotary kilns are suitable for large volumes. Their special feature is uniform baking and high productivity. Reliable manufacturers include Abat, Rotor-Agro, and ElSi Universal.
Bakery ovens
A small bakery can easily do with a compact baking oven. It is convenient, takes up less space and is easy to operate. A good option for beginners is offered by the Pratica brand.
Flour sifters
Although it is not a strictly required device, it improves product quality. The flour sifter cleans the raw materials and saturates the flour with oxygen, making the dough airier.
Dough dividers
Dough dividers are indispensable where you need to quickly prepare a large number of blanks of the same weight. This reduces the burden on employees and guarantees a stable result.
Proofing cabinets
Proofing cabinets are needed to properly lift the dough. They create the necessary conditions for humidity and temperature. This stage is necessary to make the bread soft and fluffy.
When choosing bakery equipment, it is worth considering the scale of future production.: Compact solutions are suitable for small volumes, while high—performance lines are suitable for large volumes. Different brands offer options in different price categories, so it's not difficult to choose the optimal set.
