Major

Inclined moulder

The Major inclined moulders are designed to
mould and lengthen dough pieces for all
types of bread (baguettes, buns, country
bread, cereal bread, etc.).

Placed on a table, a resting cabinet or even a
conveyor belt, the small space occupied by
the Major moulders is an advantage to all
bakers who want to obtain a high production
capacity (up to 2000 pieces/hour) in a small
space.

Use
Major Manu: universal, it is suitable for al l

types of dough.
Major Auto: same use as the Major Manu,

it operates in the RTM Semi and Auto units
and intermediate proofers.

Major Alpha Manu: it is more particularly
suited to highly hydrated and highly flour
dusted doughs with an airy crumb texture.

Major Alpha Auto: same use as the Major
Alpha Manu, it operates in the Delta 70 and
ECP intermediate proofers.

Simple insertion of the dough piece in the Major moulder

Ergonomic considerations,
precision and convenience

The ergonomic controls with
indicators are easy to handle: using
them is intuitive.
Simple and precise for all functions
(rollers, opening of the compartment,
etc.), they can be read and adjusted
very easily.

The notched belt transmissions do
not require adjustment, do not
cause impacts, and are friction
resistant.

The Major moulder is very quiet (< 58 dBa), which will
prove a real advantage when used intensively in your
bakery.

Performance and flexibility

Centred by the in-feed gutter, the
dough pieces are sheeted between 2
cylinders covered with a non-stick
material, then rolled under a load
conveyor.
The dough pieces are fully controlled and sheeted very
evenly.

Lengthening takes place between 2 felt conveyors to
reduce sticking and preserve residual humidity.
The felt-covered, retractable shelf helps to receive the
dough pieces.
The Major moulder can be adapted for mounting on a
stand, a resting cabinet, a table, an out-feed conveyor
belt or may be installed in a semi-automatic or
automatic intermediate proofer.
A felt drying fan is available (only with the RTM
intermediate proofers).

Safety and simplicity

On the Major Manu, Major Alpha Manu and Major
Alpha Auto models the in-feed gutter is equipped
with a circuit breaker, which controls the
emergency stopping of the machine, and a
mechanical tilting safety device.
This device prevents the sudden stoppage of the
machine which often holds up baking operations.

On the Major Auto models an
in-feed conveyor, itself
protected by a tilting cover
equipped with a hopper for
guiding the dough pieces,
guarantees user safety.

The convenience of the
machine is further enhanced
by the grouping of control
functions located at the
bottom on the right side (as
standard), or at the bottom on
the left side (on request), thus
making it possible to adapt to
any installation.
