Dough Rounders

Hydra P is a channel roller/rounder that revives traditional rounding principles in a modern machine designed for today’s productivity and hygiene requirements. Instead of shaping dough through pressure, Hydra P rounds by controlled rolling: a long belt with specially designed channels gently guide each piece, progressively forming a round shape while avoiding mechanical stress. The result is a rounded piece that looks and behaves very much like hand-rounded dough—only at industrial speed and with consistent repeatability.

This gentle principle is especially valuable for doughs where even slight compression can damage internal structure. For panettone and colomba, it helps preserve the delicate, enriched dough matrix; for pinsa and other high-hydration products, it supports stable, uniform rounding without tightening the dough.

Hydra P is also a practical answer for gluten-free dough processing, where rounding is typically slow and labour intensive: the channel-guided rolling action forms uniform pieces without relying on the strong gluten network that conventional rounding methods require.

Built for continuous production, Hydra P combines low-stress rounding with a hygienic, high-throughput design. To match your required weight range and capacity, the belt speed is variable and the channels can be fine-adjusted via a hand-wheel. From factory, the system can be supplied in different lengths, taking into account the available space in combination with production requirements.

For products that need more than a round piece, an optional long moulder gently extends the rounded dough—ideal, for example, for colomba production—while maintaining the same gentle handling philosophy throughout the process.

Features and range:
- Ideal for: panettone, colomba, pinsa, high-hydration and gluten-free doughs
- Hygienic design: full stainless steel, suitable for high-throughput operation
- System length options: 3 m, 4 m or 5 m (to extend weight range and increase capacity)
- Capacity: up to 2,600 pieces/hour
- Weight range: 30–2,000 g
- Optional module: long moulder for gentle long moulding (e.g., colomba)

Hydra V is a belt rounder developed specifically for soft, high-hydration doughs in the 65–90% range. It is especially well suited for mixed breads and high-rye doughs, where gentle handling and stable control are essential to achieve consistent rounding while preserving the dough’s structure.

The machine uses double belts in a V configuration to guide and round dough pieces in a controlled manner. Each belt has its own drive with independently adjustable speed, allowing the rounding action to be tuned precisely to dough type, hydration level, and the desired end result. The V-angle between the belts is mechanically set during installation, while the opening distance between the belts can easily be adjusted by operators via a handwheel, making changeovers fast and results repeatable.

Hydra V is designed for semi-industrial bakery environments, with synthetic textile belts equipped with guides for long-life operation, and a full stainless-steel frame and covers for hygiene and durability. A high-capacity flour duster is supplied as standard, with the option to add a second duster for more demanding applications.

Features and range:
- Ideal for: soft doughs, 65–90% hydration; mixed and high-rye bread doughs
- Flour duster: high-capacity duster standard; second duster optional
- Weight range: 150–2,000 g
- Rounding length: 2.55 m
- Capacity: up to 2,000 pieces/hour

Conyca is a compact conical rounder designed for reliable rounding of medium-strong bread doughs. It delivers consistent results on typical white and mixed doughs—also at up to ~65% hydration—while reinforcing the dough structure and the character of the final product.

Thanks to its space-saving footprint, Conyca is an easy fit in both new and existing production lines where floor space is limited but rounding quality still matters.
A generous 3.75 m rounding channel provides the time needed for controlled rounding across a wide weight range.

In daily use, the Conyca’s robust design is simple to operate and requires only minimal maintenance. Product-contact parts are stainless steel or Teflon-coated to reduce sticking and support hygienic, fast cleaning.
For more challenging, sticky doughs, an optional hot/cold air blower can be added, and a full stainless-steel version is available where required.
A soft start-up system helps the machine remain stable in the production line at start-up.

Features and range:
- Ideal for: white and mixed bread doughs (up to ~65% hydration)
- Weight range (model-dependent): 100–500 g, 200–1,200 g, or 400–1,800 g
- Capacity up to 2,100 pieces/hour
- Stainless-steel adjustable flour duster standard
- Mobility: on wheels with brakes; good ground clearance
- Options: hot/cold air blower for sticky doughs; full stainless-steel structure; electronic adjustable speed; special Teflon for stickier doughs

Agyla is the industrial conical rounder for dough production operations that require a robust machine to handle a broad product portfolio at high throughput. Built for continuous operation, it combines fast, effective rounding with the durability and control required in industrial environments.

A key advantage is its single hand-wheel channel adjustment: the rounding channels can be set quickly and accurately, allowing the full weight range (30–2,000 g) to be processed on the same machine without changing equipment. With an exceptionally long 7 m rounding channel, Agyla provides the time needed for excellent rounding even on firmer doughs—such as typical pizza dough—while still supporting high-speed production.

To match line capacity and dough behaviour, Agyla comes with electronic variable speed as standard, enabling stable results across different dough types and weights. For seamless, consistent loading, an optional infeed conveyor is available, ensuring reliable transfer of dough pieces regardless of the positioning between upstream equipment and the rounder.

Features and range:
- Ideal for: medium to strong dough types
- Weight range: 30–2,000 g
- Capacity: up to 5,000 pieces/hour
- Speed control: electronic variable speed (standard)
- Stainless-steel adjustable flour duster (standard)
- Options: hot/cold air blower; stainless-steel structure; special Teflon for stickier doughs
- Optional accessory: infeed conveyor belt for seamless, consistent loading
