Apparatus for supplying food dough including a hopper to which a large block of food dough is supplied, a cutting apparatus located at a lower opening port of the hopper to cut the block into small blocks that have substantially the same volume, a dough feeder having a plurality of rollers that are arranged in a V to form the small blocks into a sheet of food dough, a transferring conveyor to transfer the small blocks to the dough feeder, a feeding conveyor that conveys the sheet of the food dough formed by the dough feeder of a constant thickness, a weighing conveyor for measuring the weight of a part of the sheet that is supplied by the feeding conveyor as the sheet is being conveyed, and a cutting apparatus for cutting the sheet of the food dough when the measurement of the weighing conveyor corresponds to a preset value.

Apparatus and method for supplying food dough

Method for supplying food dough

An apparatus for supplying food dough forms blocks of food dough that are continuously supplied into a sheet or belt of food dough and then divides it into chunks of food dough that have preset weights. The apparatus for supplying food dough comprises a hopper to which a large block of food dough is supplied, a cutting apparatus located at a lower opening port of the hopper to cut the block into small blocks that have substantially the same volume, a dough feeder having a plurality of rollers that are arranged as a V to form the small blocks into a sheet of the food dough, a transferring conveyor to transfer the small blocks to the dough feeder, a feeding conveyor to convey the sheet of the food dough that is formed by the dough feeder to have a constant thickness, a weighing conveyor measuring the weight of a part of the sheet that is supplied by the feeding conveyor as the sheet is being conveyed, and a cutting apparatus for cutting the sheet of the food dough when the measurement of the weighing conveyor corresponds to a preset value.

Apparatus for supplying food dough

A method of manufacturing various shapes of bread that comprises the steps of forming a continuous sheet of bread dough, winding up the sheet of bread dough traveling on a horizontal conveyor from one of its sides into a bar of bread dough, causing the bar to fall from the downstream end of the conveyor, and cutting the falling dough body into dough pieces by means of squeezing it with the flat surfaces of a cutter, according to its preset weight or length.
