bakeway overhead intermediate proofers are designed to accept dough balls from the discharge conveyor of the divider and automatically load them into the proofer trays. The frames are constructed of 2”x 2” and 2” x 3” tubular steel (or stainless steel) and finished with stainless steel covers and guards on all sides. The trays use Snap-on nylon mesh pockets for ease of maintenance and improved sanitation. Sliding product inspection windows are made from clear GE “Lexan” plastic.On larger proofers, a transpositor is located midway through the proofer, to prevent any possibility of stick age to the pockets. The hopper and the gates are “Silverstone” or “Teflon” coated, and are pneumatically operated and synchronized with the proofer.
