Abstract

An apparatus for mechanically processing the surface of a piece of dough comprises a pressure body (6) provided with at least one depression (5) for receiving the dough piece (3) to be processed that is put in by a put-in means (2) at a put-in location (4) into the depression (5). At a processing location (9) that is spatially offset with respect to the put-in location (4), a tool (20) is disposed in a framework (1) for up and down motion, which tool processes the dough piece (3) disposed within the depression (5). The processed dough pieces (3) are put off by the pressure body (6) at a delivery location (40) onto a rest means (33). The pressure body (6) is bearingly supported for rotation around its longitudinal axis on a pressure body carrier (42) separated from the put-in means (2). By the pressure body carrier (42), the pressure body (6) is displaceable to-and-fro between the put-in location (4) and the processing location (9). The delivery location (40) is disposed in the zone of this to-and-fro motion.
