Automation offers improved quality
and greater consistency compared
to manual operations. Automation
also reduces labor cost and
increases employee satisfaction.
Belshaw has spent over 40
years developing automated
systems, with improvements
being added each year.
The result: producing
high quality, fresh
donuts is now easier
than ever.

Donuts or other products are conveyed by round flight bars spaced
either 3”(76mm), 3.5”(89mm), 4”(102mm) or 4.5”(114mm) from centerto-center. Subtract the width of a flight bar (3/8”/10mm) to determine
the exact space between flight bars.
Multiple Turners
Standard conveyor includes one turner. One or two additional turners
(e.g. for french crullers) may be optionally installed when ordering.
Removable turners can be inserted or removed quickly without tools.

Feed Table
A
In cases where a rack proofer (or no proofer at all) is used, a syn-
chronized Feed Table loads raised donuts into the fryer. (See page
32 for more Feed Table information)
Transfer Conveyor
B
The Transfer Conveyor enables rapid changeover between cake
and raised donut production without needing to move the proofer.
At changeover, the cake donut depositor is exchanged with the
transfer conveyor, (see page 22 for more information on the Transfer
Conveyor).

Submerger
A specialized conveyor submerges and guides

The submerger extends approximately two

6-wide and 8-wide fryers.
Control panel options
Control panels vary. A wired remote control
console is available with C6-24 and larger

Belshaw’s Thermomatic (TM) Proofers, designed in concert
with our Century Fryers, are manufactured with the goal
of improving your efficiency. The TM Proofer automatically
controls the proofing environment to ensure each donut
receives virtually identical proofing, improving product
consistency and yield.
Flexibility and durability are hallmarks of the Belshaw TM
series. Three proofer widths, with several length, height,
infeed and outfeed options, allow Belshaw to conform a
proofer to your specific requirements.
The TM Proofer minimizes labor requirements by automating
donut production. Donuts can be automatically transferred,
placed or cut directly onto the proofing trays. The trays are
then carried through the electronically controlled proofer
environment automatically, at a speed synchronized to the
fryer, ensuring a virtually identical proof for each donut.
The TM Proofer requires little knowledge or experience to
operate reliably. You can rely on the TM Proofer to maintain
the environment you select – and produce consistent results.
The TM Proofer series is ideal for exhibition-style production.
Large clear windows allow viewing the donuts as they travel
through the proofer.
Belshaw’s Dustless Proofing option eliminates the need to
Above: TM60 0 3-sect ion proofer – c ompatible w ith C10 and C14 fryer s
put flour on the proofer trays. Donuts are transferred cleanly
using an exclusive active release system. The Dustless Option
improves quality and saves money, extending shortening life
and reducing cleaning labor.
