What is a Rotary Oven Tray Trolley?
A Rotary Oven Tray Trolley is a specially designed rack trolley that can be loaded directly into a compatible rotary rack oven. It supports the efficient loading, baking and unloading of multiple baking trays and is an essential component of industrial bakeries operating rotary oven systems.
Which Tray Trolley should be used for pastries and simit?
The 34 x 84 cm Pastry and Simit Tray Trolley is manufactured in dimensions suitable for arranging smaller bakery products more efficiently than on standard Tray Trolleys. This model is particularly suitable for bakeries producing pastries, simit, rolls and other small baked goods.
Which ovens are compatible with a 40 x 60 cm Tray Trolley?
A 40 x 60 cm Tray Trolley is compatible with many industrial convection ovens and rotary rack ovens designed around the standard 40 x 60 cm baking tray format. It is an essential handling unit for bakeries and food-production facilities that use this widely adopted tray size.
When should a Covered Tray Trolley be selected?
A Covered Tray Trolley is suitable for transfers to and from cold rooms, longer-distance movement during proofing and products requiring greater protection from external conditions. Its enclosed construction helps protect dough from cold air, dry conditions, dust and contamination while supporting more stable proofing conditions during production.
What are the standard dimensions of a Tray Trolley?
Tray Trolleys are manufactured in different widths and depths according to the baking tray dimensions they are designed to carry. EKMAŞ Tray Trolleys have a standard height of approximately 181 cm, with configurations capable of holding 14, 16, 20 or 22 trays. Wider tier spacing is generally used for higher-volume products such as bread and pastries, while closer spacing may be selected for shallow products such as simit and biscuits. Their wheeled construction supports practical movement throughout the production area.
Can Tray Trolleys be manufactured for different tray sizes?
Yes. Although trolley height is generally kept within an ergonomic standard, the width, depth and tier spacing can be adjusted according to the required baking tray dimensions. EKMAŞ manufactures standard and custom Tray Trolleys for tray sizes including 40 x 60 cm, 49 x 74 cm, 59 x 80 cm, 60 x 90 cm and 74 x 98 cm. Custom models can also be produced according to the bakery's ovens, trays and production requirements.
How many tiers does a Tray Trolley normally have?
The number of tiers is selected according to the type and height of the products carried on the baking trays. Trolleys used for bread, pastries and other higher-volume products generally have fewer tiers with wider spacing. Models intended for lower-profile products such as biscuits may have more tiers with closer spacing. EKMAŞ Tray Trolleys are commonly available with between 16 and 20 tiers, while other configurations may also be produced.
Are EKMAŞ Tray Trolleys manufactured from stainless steel?
EKMAŞ manufactures selected Tray Trolley models from 304-grade stainless steel, which provides heat resistance, corrosion resistance, hygienic surfaces and long service life for professional bakery use. Galvanised steel alternatives are also available for suitable applications. Depending on the model, laser welding or TIG welding is used to create strong and durable joints. The trolleys are fitted with robust castors to support practical movement throughout the production area.
