Automated packaging and storage of frozen bakery products
The phenomenon of fresh, warm, or lukewarm baked goods available at any time in the retail network is today’s reality. Some retailers literally pamper their customers in this way, and suppliers of bakery products must respond to this situation. One possibility is the delivery of frozen products (semi-finished or “final” products) intended for baking or thawing. For this reason, Nopek built an automated warehouse for frozen bakery products in 2019. Using an automatic stacker, pallets with products are stored in five levels of a self-falling rack, with the total capacity being 1,200 pallet places at a temperature of −20 °C. The dispatch of pallets is carried out by means of an automatic unloader with transfer to the dispatch track, from where it goes to the truck of the ordering retail chain.
