Abstract
The invention is concerned with the compacting and discharging of a dough piece in and from a dough moulding machine. According to one aspect of the invention, the dough piece is passed over a fluidized bed (air-film-lubricated chute) and at the same time, it is squeezed between a pair of rollers having their axes substantially at right angles to the fluidized bed. This method of compacting, is particularly useful in the cross panning of a dough piece. A second aspect of the invention provides a method of discharging a dough piece from a dough moulder, in which it is delivered on to a downwardly inclined fluidized bed and as it leaves the bottom of the fluidized bed it falls on to a rotating discharge roller so that it is slid forwardly under the action of the discharge roller. The invention provides apparatus for carrying out both the compacting and discharge methods.
