ROBOTRAY AUTOMATION

Robotray's Rack Loader is an automated system designed to efficiently load various sizes of trays, pans, boards, and strap pans for the baked good industry onto single or double racks without manual handling. Capable of speeds up to 14 trays per minute with a single head unit and up to 28 trays per minute with a dual head unit, it is ideal for high-throughput industrial applications. The system features a servomotor elevator that begins loading trays from the top shelf, ensuring precise positioning and reliable operation while minimizing product disruption. Its quiet, open-frame design facilitates easy cleaning and sanitation, supporting superior food safety standards.

Robotray's Tier Conveyor is an automated system designed to accumulate products using straight horizontal conveyors, offering up to 12 levels. This design is versatile, suitable for processes such as fermentation before baking, cooling post-baking, or even freezing. A lateral mobile elevator unit loads products to the appropriate level, and another lateral mobile elevator unloads them upon completion of the proofing or cooling cycle, delivering products at the designated height for the next production phase, such as baking or packaging. This system allows for precise control of processes like fermentation within a minimal space, optimizing both time and space efficiency. Full integration with other systems ensures continuous production while minimizing direct human contact with the product, reducing contamination risks.
