Flour dust and sensors

From compressed air preparation to drive and gripping technology: the pretzel twisting machine is packed with Festo expertise. When selecting the automation components, it was important to take into account the large amount of flour dust in the bakery. Special seals have been used to ensure a long service life and very easy maintenance since they prevent flour dust from getting inside the pneumatic components. Modern sensor technology also enables the machine to automatically detect faults and stop automatically if, for example, pretzel dough runs over the belt in single-strand mode.
