Bakery Machinery & Fabrication (BMF) introduced modular oven sections that offer expedited installation with increased rigidity and maximum flexibility. The footprint allows minimal plant interruption with superior sanitation features.

Hermetically sealed expansion joints placed every 10 feet help retain moisture and minimize heat loss. Combined with the new insulation design and cool skin technology that produces a natural venturi, the sections omit any hot spots. The solution offers better baking efficiency with improved airflow design, and the flexible design for all thermal delivery methods.
