Counter & Stacker
The Counter & Stacker automatically receives baked bread from the cooling line, counts the loaves, and forms organized stacks according to the operator’s selected settings.
It is designed to automate one of the final handling stages of the production line, helping bakeries improve consistency, hygiene, and packing efficiency before the bagging process.
The machine is available in different versions to suit the layout and capacity of pita, Lebanese, and Arabic bread production lines.
Automatic Counting and Stack Formation
The Counter & Stacker takes bread directly from the cooling line and organizes it into stacks based on the number of loaves defined by the operator.
It combines counting, alignment, stack formation, and delivery into one continuous stage, preparing the bread for smooth transfer to the bagger.
This automated handling process helps reduce manual work and supports a cleaner, more efficient packing workflow.
Role in the Production Line
The Counter & Stacker operates after the cooling conveyors and before the bagging stage. Its role is to receive cooled bread, count the loaves, align them, form stacks, and deliver those stacks in an orderly way toward packaging.
By automating this stage, the machine helps maintain a continuous post-baking flow and improves consistency in final product handling.
Key Functional Advantages
Automatic Bread Counting
Counts the loaves automatically and forms stacks based on operator-defined settings.
Adjustable Stack Quantity
The number of loaves per stack can be defined and changed during operation.
Automatic Loaf Pressing
Includes a loaf pressing unit that flattens the loaves and removes air for more homogeneous stacks.
Loaf Flipping System
Can flip the first loaves of the stack so the face of the loaf appears on both sides of the bag.
Alignment and Anti-Jam Control
Adjustable loaf alignment flaps and smart synchronized delivery help maintain orderly stacks and prevent jamming.
Flexible Delivery to Bagger
The transport belt to the bagger can be designed straight or angled based on available space and layout requirements.
Used in Pita and Flatbread Packing Stages
The Counter & Stacker is used in bakery lines where bread must be counted, organized, and stacked before bagging.
Pita Bread
Automates counting and stacking before pita bread packaging.
Lebanese Bread
Supports organized final handling and stack delivery to the bagger.
Arabic Bread
Improves hygiene and consistency in the final packing stages of Arabic bread production.
