Noria®
The new digital mechanised bread-dough
production line for retailers and small wholesalers.
Versatile, switches effortlessly from baguettes to farm house bread.

Have you ever dreamt of a total partnership
with a machine? Of a memory that's 100% reliable? Of technology
that's not just easy to use but capable of saving you time and money?
Of a mechanism which will carry out to the letter the command it's given?
Accurate to the nearest gram and with just the right texture.
Whether it's close-textured or open-textured bread you're making, Noria
delivers with precision.

A reliable partner
You need not learn how to 'master' the machine. The
input needed from the baker or his apprentice in order to handle
Noria is kept to an absolute minimum, which means that learning how
to use it is quick and easy. You'll soon be baking. Noria takes care
of everything and can handle a series of recipes - from baguettes to
pastry - without your having to supervise each step. If you need to
reload, or if Noria is missing something it needs to carry out your
commands, it will inform you. You've passed on your know-how and it
won't waste a single crumb. |
 |
Flawless memory
An amazing 50 recipes - that's what Noria's memory can hold without
any difficulty. It can reproduce ten recipes in a single sequence
without interrupting production. The memory records everything: how
long each type of dough needs to stand, adjustments required at each
stage, proportions, eights, the cleaning cycle and so on. At the dough
divider outlet, a weighing mat (optional) ensures that the weight is accurate
to within two grams. Noria will also record any adjustment made during
the process - the correction is instantaneous. And, whatever's been produced
during the day, Noria will summarize it all in a comprehensive daily
report. |

Time and money savings
The proof of the pudding is in the eating...In this bakery, the baker produces
2,000 loaves of 20 different types each day. He achieves this output in just 8 hours
instead of 20, thanks to the automatic production line. Two workers
are no longer needed - one is enough. And there's no more stopping
between each recipe, as the sequences are programmed in advance, from
one end of the process to the other. The baker is now able to better manage
his time, his skills and those of his personnel. This also applies to his
equipment, because the highly versatile Noria integrates the activities
of five machines into one.
What's more, the temperature and humidity control system also saves him time.
The passage into the drying oven is reduced by several minutes -
precious extra time that can be used for raising in the prover. And when
everything's more relaxed, the moulding is better - and the quality goes
up a notch. Profitability and quality! |
 |
Permanent control
State-of-the-art technology doesn't rule out human involvement. As well
as being able to adjust commands in real time, the baker can also feed
the moulder an off-cycle product manually. The entry points are of course
secured, but all the machine's panels are perfectly accessible and can be dismantled with
a single key. If a technical problem occurs, or if everything's stuck
in the machine, Noria can be stopped manually. The error messages displayed
on the touch-sensitive screen are always clearly stated. If the trouble
persists, specialists are available to provide remote assistance
by means of a modem. Whatever happens, Noria's memory will remain
intact and ready to start up again ... |
 |
Touch-sensitive screen -
Like the production line itself, the touch-sensitive screen with its
color controls is designed for ultra-accessibility. The controls are
straightforward: a Start button and a Stop button. The panel is positioned
at an ergonomic height and mounted on an articulated arm which
swivels 180°. A protective cover and alert buzzer are also
provided. |
 |
Loading areas -
There are two possible access points (frontal and lateral),
depending on whether the baker chooses to orient the product towards
the traditional process or towards an intermediate rounding phase. |
 |
Automatic prover loading -
The tilting belt is followed by a 'comb' which recenters
the dough balls in the pockets. |
 |
Prover -
The area where the dough balls stand. The whole structure
is made of stainless steel. It holds clip-in pockets made of 200µ
polyamide mesh. |
 |
Unloading of troughs -
The buckets tip the dough balls onto the belt. The belt
pauses during the tipping operation, thus preventing the dough balls from
sticking to the pockets. The belt then starts up again, leading
either to the molder or to the external output point. |
 |
Moulder -
The container features a four-roller technology (two
of which are adjustable). Two compression belts ensure maximum
precision and effectiveness for all products, no matter how diverse
they are. |
 |
Moulder output belt -
This is available in two versions (long or short) and ends at a product pick-up
tray. |
 |
Humidifier -
The system ensures that optimal hygiene is maintained in the production
line. Thus, a high-frequency generator produces cold water vapor. Hot
water is not used, to avoid the risk of bacteria developing. An osmotic
water treatment unit is situated upstream, with a regulator and a
drainage system. Finally, the mechanism includes an extractor fan,
enabling all the air contained in the machine to be replaced every ten
minutes (i.e. six times an hour). |
 |
Heating -
Two 1,500 watt units with a resistance and a blower.
The device features permanent temperature control. |
 |
Germicide lamps -
These help kill any bacteria in the machine by drying and
disinfecting the pockets by UV radiation during the cleaning process. |
 |
Input/output devices -
Everything is centralised in a single unit: electric power
input, water input, water drainage, and sockets for the dough divider and
regulation, input belt, dough rounder and peripheral devices |
 |
Moulder output belt -
This is available in two versions (long or short) and ends at a product pick-up
tray. |
 |
Electrical cabinet -
The control module features standard elements only, connected
in all cases with the touch-sensitive screen. As a result, the source of
any technical problem can be identified visually. The unit is secured, and
conforms to IP65 sealing standards. All c9omponents are modular.
Geared motor - Can be disconnected for manual loading. |
JAC Div-All
Automatic volumetric dough divider made of stainless steel (trough a teflon
coated vat). Equipment with a secured grill, an emergency stop and an oil
gauge. It starts production at the calibrated weight for each dough type.
The baker can intervene at any point. At regular, adjustable intervals, the
machine issues a reminder to check the weight. The output belt can be
fitted with a prerounding ruler. |
 |
 |
JAC Weighing mat (optional)
Removes the need for any dough ball weight-checking or sorting operations.
The process responds directly to instructions with continual dough ball
weight adjustment (guaranteed constant weight to within two grams). Dough
balls which are the wrong size are thus automatically rejected, without any
human intervention. |
Dough rounder and pre-rounder
Conical, cylindrical or eccentric, connected
before or after the prover. |

JAC Texa C3 Divider
At the entry point, or alternatively the exit point,
of the Noria, the products requiring a firm texture go through the
rounding process.
Depending on the operation time, the required lubricants, ad the
desired length, you will be tempted by one of the three models
available.
|
 |
|
JAC Transa Transfer Belts
The Transa transfer belts are the essential accessory
to take the dough pieces from the Div-All-a to the Noria.
In its Simplex version, the belt is fitted with a sensor used to
count the dough piecs as they enter the Noria.
In their Duplex version, the belts genuinely act like an automatic
switchpoint, dispatching the dough pieces according to the directions
that you would have set beforehand for each of them, i.e. directly
into the Noria, or through the pre-rounding process. |
