Metra Line
Metra Line is the complete line for making bread of any shape and size. It uses a Metra checkweigher-divider as a head machine, allowing it to process any dough – wheat, rye, mixed, soft, and hard – without stressing it, always ensuring excellent quality. This fully automatic line can be operated by one person. In addition, it allows you to define the characteristics of the desired final product. In its complete configuration, the Metra Line consists of a feeding hopper, a conical divider-rounder, a moulding station, and a proofing cabinet.
Type of Bun
Moulding station
This solid unit complies with all the latest European standards. It creates long-rolled bread using only wheat or mixed flour (wheat and rye). The dough fed to the machine through the hopper passes through a set of rollers, which give it the desired thickness. Then it’s conveyed to the pressure board, where it’s long-rolled.You can easily adjust the pressure board’s height through two manual controls. The machine is also equipped with adjustable side guides.
Proofing cabinet
This intermediate proofing cabinet is for dough pieces weighing up to 1.2 kg with a 4 to 20-minute resting time. A UV lamp prevents bacterial proliferation.
Conical rounder
Ideal for rounding soft and medium dough. A rotating cone pushes the dough along concave spirals, giving it a spherical shape. The spirals are Teflon-coated to prevent the dough from sticking to them. This machine has a standard automatic flour duster, which you can easily remove for cleaning. In addition, it can be fitted with a hot/cold air blower to process moist dough.
Feeding hopper
This unit allows you to feed the dough divider with even pieces of dough, optimising its operation. You can quickly remove its internal components for easy cleaning.
Dough divider
An extending piston pushes the dough from the hopper to its designated space. Then, the checkweigher closes the space, and the piston pushes the dough into the measurement chamber.
The measurement chamber’s volume is that of the pre-set dough weight and dictates the amount of dough drawn in. This method prevents the dough from returning to the hopper. Finally, the dough pieces are released onto the outfeed belt.
