CPS has extensive experience with ECD’s M.O.L.E. thermal profilers, which provide precision data capture of thermal events for baked goods and bakery equipment. This positions CPS to support bakers’ technical requirements by utilizing multiple ECD products to streamline production, reduce energy use and enhance operational efficiency.
“I have used M.O.L.E. profilers in my work for many years,” said Phillip Stringer, owner and principal consultant of CPS. “Often, bakery operators perceive thermal profiling to be complicated, so they designate one point person to manage the profiling routines. This is simply not the case – especially with M.O.L.E. The product is easy to understand and yields tremendous benefits when part of routine process verification and equipment maintenance regimens. I’m very excited about the ECD-CPS partnership and look forward to helping bakeries thrive with these affordable, simple and effective tools.”
Attendees of Pack Expo, set for Nov. 3-6 in Chicago, will have the chance to see CPS and the ECD thermal profiling portfolio in the Baking Industry Technical Support, LLC Booth # LL-9828.
