Automatic Divider-rounder model Syncro The first characteristic to check, and possibly adjust is the quantity of flour to be added at each production cycle. Flour is important for the correct processing of the dough: if it is insufficient compared to the consistency of the dough, the latter may not be dropped off correctly onto the rounding system, as it will stick in areas outside the normal flow of the work cycle.
Rounding Allows modifying the dough rounding speed. speed (0÷100%) Only in the “SYNCRO M” and 'SYNCRO EM' version, this parameter Loaf moulding defines the type of final processing of the dough, determining the crushing (ON÷OFF) of the ball for the production of, for example, HAMBURGER buns or vice versa, its elongation for the production of HOT-DOG buns.
