Dough Work

Professional Dough Work: Mastering Texture and Development

In the food industry, whether it's artisanal bakeries, fine patisseries, or pizzerias, dough work is a crucial step that defines the quality of the finished product. Proper kneading, precise sheeting, or consistent dividing are the guarantors of an airy crumb, a crispy puff pastry, or a perfect pizza base. At Aksora, we have selected a range of professional machines designed to automate these complex tasks while respecting the biological and physical characteristics of your doughs. Our equipment combines mechanical power and delicacy to enhance your expertise.

Kneading: The Secret to Balanced Dough

Kneading is the phase where the gluten network forms. Incorrect kneading can either underdevelop the dough or overheat it excessively, thus killing the yeast's action. On Aksora.com, we offer solutions tailored to every need:

• Spiral Mixers: These are the ultimate versatile tools. The spiral shape allows for rapid kneading of large quantities of dough (bread, pizza, pastries) while limiting temperature rise. The synchronized rotation of the bowl and the tool ensures perfect homogeneity.

• Oblique Arm Mixers: Preferred by traditional bakers, they mimic the manual gesture for gentle kneading that respects the air cells of traditional breads.

• Variable Speed Motors: Essential for adjusting the mixing intensity based on your flour's hydration.

Dividing and Shaping: Time Savings and Consistency

Once the dough is ready, manual portioning is a lengthy task prone to weight errors. Automating the Dough Work pole helps streamline your production:

1. Dough Dividers: Whether manual, semi-automatic, or hydraulic, they allow for dividing a mass of dough into identical dough pieces (usually 20 or 30 divisions) in just a few seconds.

2. Rounders and Divider-Rounders: Ideal for making round breads or pizza dough balls, these machines round the dough to give it the necessary tension for proper proofing.

3. Moulders: For baguettes and long breads, the moulder ensures regular lengthening without degassing the dough, guaranteeing a professional and consistent visual appearance.

Sheeting: The Precision of Laminated Dough

For pastry chefs and caterers, the dough sheeter is the tool for profitability. Achieving dough sheets of millimeter thickness is impossible by hand for large volumes. Our professional sheeters, tabletop or floor-standing, feature precision cylinders that allow delicate doughs (puff pastry, sugar paste, shortcrust pastry) to be worked without tearing them. The fluidity of the conveyors and the ease of adjustment allow for perfect turns for your croissants and mille-feuilles.

Robustness, Hygiene, and Professional Safety

The equipment in the Dough Work collection selected by Aksora meets the most stringent durability and safety requirements:

• Unalterable Materials: Use of stainless steel for bowls and certified food-grade materials for conveyors and rollers.

• Active Safety Features: Protective guards on mixers, safety bars on sheeters, and emergency stop buttons to protect your teams during use.

• Easy Maintenance: Smooth surfaces and removable scrapers allow for quick removal of flour and dough residues, ensuring compliance with HACCP protocols.
