The new Koenig Artisan SFE EC dough sheeting line is revolutionizing food manufacturing by offering bakers enhanced production efficiency, streamlined cleaning processes, and user-friendly operation. By utilizing this innovative system, bakers can effectively reduce dough costs.
Exclusively available in the UK and Ireland through European Process Plant Ltd (EPP), the Koenig Artisan SFE EC is ergonomically designed to optimize efficiency. This advanced line facilitates flexible and cost-effective production of bread rolls, boasting a remarkable throughput of up to 9,000 pieces per hour.
“Efficiency is king in our industry, so we’re excited to offer the latest innovation from our long-established partner and market leader Koenig, which introduces a range of benefits to save bakers time and money,” states Steve Merritt, EPP managing director. “The Artisan SFE EC is an economical and versatile line able to produce a variety of dough shapes and sizes whilst conserving resources. Its ease of use allows for fast, tool-free product changes, making it a fantastic commercial workhorse for reliable, consistent and high-quality production at scale.”
This state-of-the-art line features an ‘Easy Clean’ design and improved visibility, which allows bakers to conduct quick cleanings while maintaining oversight of the production process. Its compact configuration enables it to occupy the smallest possible footprint, making it ideal for smaller bakeries that may lack space for a standard sheeting system and require automated production.
The Artisan SFE EC excels in endless dough sheet generation, specifically crafted for doughs with a yield of 155 to 175—eliminating edge sections and excess dough. Furthermore, it includes a wide array of stamping tools, with an optional cup rounding station available for rounded products. Thanks to its integrated inline seeding feature, bakers can produce perfectly seeded rolls without the need for a separate seeding unit. A modern Programmable Logic Controller system ensures simple and intuitive operation.
Interested parties can see the Koenig Artisan SFE EC in action at the upcoming Südback trade show, taking place from 26-29 October at the Messe Stuttgart in Germany. EPP representatives will also be present to connect with partners and customers.
