Cream spreading machine FSTM

Overview
Process wafers with the Franz Haas FSTM-Modular series: a modular system for precise cream spreading and wafer block building, engineered for hygiene and resource efficiency.

Key benefits

• Hygienic design: constructed to meet food‑safe hygienic standards for easy cleaning and product safety.
• Modular line configuration: combine core and optional modules to build a production line tailored to product and capacity requirements.
• Resource efficiency: precise adjustment of cream film thickness to ensure uniform distribution and reduce ingredient waste.

Highlight features

• Modular core package: buffer, cream spreader and block builder as the basic configuration; optional modules such as sprinkling, quality control or handling modules can be integrated.
• Smart production: integration of mechanical and electronic components with intelligent software for process control, monitoring and predictable changeovers.
• High throughput capability: designed for continuous operation with production speeds quoted up to approximately 100 sheets per minute (application dependent).
• Quick changeover and hygiene: design facilitates rapid product changeovers and efficient cleaning routines.

Application possibilities

• Flat wafers and wafer block production: cream spreading and block building in industrial wafer lines.

Process chain (selected steps)

• Intake, weighing and dosing: hygienic intake and precise dosing for controlled ingredient handling.
• Mixing: producing homogeneous batters and cream fillings with correct consistency.
• Baking: depositing batter onto baking plates and forming wafer sheets.
• Wafer sheet cooling and conditioning: controlled cooling and humidification to prepare sheets for coating.
• Cream spreading and block building: precise film thickness control and layered assembly of wafer blocks.
• Wafer block cooling, buffering, separating/cutting, enrobing and final cooling: downstream steps for finishing and packaging.

Services and training

• Commissioning, operator training and customized process workshops focused on ingredient handling, machine settings and quality troubleshooting.
• Performance assessment and technical support for line optimization.
