Producing biscuits on an industrial scale is not as simple as baking at home. Many biscuit factories, especially those upgrading from semi-manual to automated systems, face issues such as uneven baking, shape distortion, inconsistent weight, and high labor dependence. These problems directly lead to lower yield rates, higher energy costs, and unstable product quality. The solution lies in adopting a fully automatic biscuit production line, which integrates precise mixing, continuous forming, tunnel baking, oil spraying, cooling, and automated packaging into one synchronized process. This integration not only ensures consistent quality but also dramatically improves production efficiency and hygiene standards.

A complete biscuit production line automates the full process — from ingredient preparation to finished packaging — including mixing, sheeting, forming, baking, cooling, and wrapping. Using PLC and servo-driven control, modern lines achieve high consistency, reduced waste, and flexible changeover between hard and soft biscuit types.

If you are planning to start or modernize a biscuit manufacturing plant, understanding the entire process and the machinery behind each stage is crucial. The following sections explain each component, its working principle, control technology, and how Darin Machinery provides a turnkey solution tailored to your product type and production capacity.

Overview of the Biscuit Production Process

Before we dive into each step, let’s look at the standard workflow for a complete biscuit production line:

Ingredient Dosing → Dough Mixing → Sheeting / Laminating → Forming → Baking → Oil Spraying → Cooling → Stacking → Packaging

Each phase involves specialized machinery designed for precision, hygiene, and efficiency. Depending on the product — whether it’s a hard cracker, soft butter biscuit, or sandwich type — the configuration can vary.

Part 2 — Dough Mixing & Sheeting System: The Foundation of Biscuit Texture and Quality

A successful biscuit line begins not in the oven, but in the mixing room. Dough quality directly determines biscuit texture, mouthfeel, and final yield. Poorly mixed or improperly hydrated dough causes deformation during forming or uneven coloring in the oven. Hence, precision in ingredient dosing and dough handling is the cornerstone of industrial biscuit production.

Step 1. Ingredient Preparation and Automatic Dosing

Modern biscuit lines adopt automatic dosing systems that ensure precise measurement and delivery of flour, sugar, fat, leavening agents, and water. The goal is to eliminate manual weighing errors and achieve reproducible dough properties across batches.

Core Equipment Used:

1. Flour Silo and Conveyor System — Stores and pneumatically conveys flour to the mixer.
2. Automatic Weighing Hopper — Measures flour, sugar, and other dry ingredients.
3. Oil and Water Dosing Unit — Controls temperature and volume with ±1% accuracy.
4. Additive Feeder — Handles minor ingredients like salt, baking powder, emulsifiers, etc.

Technical Insight:
Uniform ingredient dosing affects gluten formation. Excess water causes sticky dough, while under-hydration leads to cracking during sheeting. Darin’s systems use digital load cells and proportional valves to maintain precision.

Step 2. Dough Mixing: Homogenization and Gluten Control

After dosing, ingredients enter the horizontal dough mixer. Mixing transforms the blend into a cohesive, elastic mass ready for sheeting. The process differs slightly between hard biscuits (low fat, high gluten) and soft biscuits (high fat, low gluten).

A. Types of Mixers Used

1. Horizontal Paddle Mixer (Z-Blade or Sigma Type) – For hard doughs requiring strong gluten development.
2. Planetary Mixer or Creaming Mixer – For soft doughs or cookies with high fat/sugar ratios.
3. Continuous Mixer (for large-scale lines) – Automatically blends ingredients in a continuous stream.

Mixing Principle:
During mixing, gluten strands form as water interacts with flour proteins. Overmixing results in tough biscuits; undermixing yields crumbly dough. Temperature must remain between 25 °C–30 °C for optimal consistency.

Engineering Note:
In tropical climates, chilled water or glycol cooling jackets are used to control dough temperature. Consistent temperature ensures proper dough relaxation before forming.

Step 3. Dough Resting and Feeding

Once mixed, the dough should rest for 10–20 minutes to relax the gluten network. This allows easier sheeting and prevents shrinkage during baking.

Equipment:

• Resting Conveyor or Dough Maturation Trolley
• Feeding Hopper with Variable-Speed Screw Feeder

Tip from Darin Engineers:
Avoid stacking dough in bulk; instead, use shallow stainless trays for uniform temperature distribution and prevent fermentation.

Step 4. Sheeting and Lamination: Building the Biscuit’s Structure

After resting, dough moves into the sheeting section, which gradually compresses and laminates it into thin layers. This process defines the final texture — flaky and crisp for hard biscuits, dense and soft for butter cookies.

Main Equipment:

1. 3-Roll Sheeter (Pre-sheeter)
2. Laminator (Folding Conveyor System)
3. Gauge Rolls (Thickness Reducers)
4. Docking & Dusting Units

Process Principle:
Lamination folds the dough upon itself repeatedly, introducing tiny air layers. When baked, these expand to form a crisp, layered structure typical of cream crackers or Marie biscuits.

Engineering Best Practices:

• Dusting Control: Lightly dust with flour or starch to prevent sticking; too much dusting affects color uniformity.
• Edge Recycle: Scrap dough from cutting should be reincorporated within 10–15 min to maintain moisture balance.

Step 5. Sheet Relaxation Conveyor (Optional)

After lamination, dough sheets pass through a relaxation conveyor for 2–3 minutes to equalize internal stresses before cutting. Without this step, shrinkage may occur during baking.

Key Technical Considerations

Summary of Part 2

The ingredient preparation, mixing, and sheeting section forms the structural foundation of every biscuit. By ensuring consistent ingredient dosing, controlled gluten development, and precise lamination, manufacturers can guarantee uniform biscuit weight, color, and texture. With Darin’s automation and modular line design, producers can easily adjust recipes, minimize downtime, and scale production efficiently.

Part 3 — Forming, Cutting & Baking: How the Tunnel Oven Defines Biscuit Color and Texture

After the dough has been perfectly laminated and relaxed, the next challenge is shaping it accurately and baking it to perfection. These two stages — forming and baking — determine not only the appearance but also the flavor, moisture, texture, and shelf life of biscuits. Errors in this section can destroy an otherwise perfect batch of dough. That’s why industrial biscuit manufacturers rely on precision forming systems and multi-zone tunnel ovens engineered for stable temperature and airflow control.

Step 6. Forming Section: From Dough Sheet to Biscuit Shape

The forming section defines the biscuit’s geometry, pattern, and logo. Depending on the product type, two main methods are used: Rotary Cutting (for hard biscuits and crackers) and Rotary Molding (for soft biscuits and cookies).

A. Rotary Cutting — Precision for Hard Biscuits

Rotary cutters consist of two synchronized rollers:

• Cutter roller: Embosses and cuts the dough into shapes.
• Anvil roller: Provides the counter pressure to ensure clean separation.

This system is ideal for hard dough products such as Marie biscuits, soda crackers, or glucose biscuits.

Engineering Note:
The rotary cutter roller surface is engraved with biscuit outlines and logo patterns using CNC machining. The anvil roller is often rubber-coated to absorb pressure and prevent tearing.

Scrap Recovery:
A scrap conveyor returns the trimmed dough edges back to the sheeter for reprocessing. This saves up to 3–5% of raw material per batch.

B. Rotary Molding — For Soft and Fancy Biscuits

Soft doughs with high sugar or fat content are too delicate to sheet and cut. Instead, they are shaped by rotary molders.
The dough is pressed into engraved cavities on a molding drum, then transferred to the oven band.

Features:

• Servo-driven rollers for precision molding
• Teflon-coated scrapers prevent sticking
• Quick-change drum system for shape changeover

Shape Options:
Round, square, animal, logo, ridged, or custom 3D embossed patterns.

C. Docking and Panning

Hard biscuit sheets pass through a docking roller that perforates the dough. These small holes prevent air bubbles during baking.
For soft biscuits, panning conveyors transport dough pieces onto oven bands without distortion.

Step 7. Baking — The Heart of Biscuit Production

Baking transforms the raw dough into finished biscuits. It involves dehydration, starch gelatinization, fat melting, and Maillard browning reactions. Industrial biscuit lines use tunnel ovens that can reach lengths of 20 to 80 meters, operating continuously with automatic conveyor feeding.

A. Structure of the Tunnel Oven

A tunnel oven is a long, enclosed chamber with a moving baking band that carries the biscuits through multiple temperature zones.

Typical Oven Structure:

1. Infeed Zone — Gentle heat to set shape and start moisture evaporation.
2. Middle Zone — Higher heat for color development and moisture removal.
3. Final Zone — Drying and stabilization of biscuit structure.

Oven Types Used:

• Direct Gas Fired (DGF) — High efficiency, fast response, suitable for crackers.
• Indirect Gas Fired (IGF) — Cleaner heat, ideal for soft biscuits.
• Electric Tunnel Oven — Used where gas supply is limited.
• Hybrid Oven — Combines DGF + Electric zones for flexibility.

B. Oven Conveyor Band Types

Engineering Tip:
Choose mesh bands for lighter doughs requiring rapid moisture removal; use solid steel bands for soft doughs that need smooth bottoms.

C. Airflow and Heat Control

Uniform heat distribution is critical. Darin tunnel ovens use forced convection fans and recirculation ducts to maintain even temperature and color.
Each zone has independent control for:

• Top & bottom temperature
• Air velocity
• Humidity exhaust rate
• Conveyor speed

Example Control Chart:

D. Baking Time and Moisture Balance

Baking time varies with biscuit type, thickness, and oven length. The goal is to reduce moisture from ~25% in dough to 2–3% in finished biscuits.

E. Moisture Uniformity and Oven Exhaust

Uniform drying prevents warping and breakage. Darin ovens include:

• Adjustable exhaust chimneys to remove steam.
• Moisture sensors for real-time feedback.
• PID temperature controllers for ±1 °C accuracy.

Moisture Gradient Diagram (Typical):

F. Color Uniformity & Surface Texture

Oven design and heat profile determine biscuit appearance.

• Excess bottom heat: dark base, pale top.
• Excess top heat: blistered surface.
• Uneven airflow: inconsistent color.

Solution: Use Darin’s balanced top-bottom PID system and adjustable air ducts for consistent color and texture across the oven width.

Step 8. Energy Efficiency in Baking

Industrial ovens consume up to 60% of total energy in a biscuit plant. Modern Darin ovens integrate energy recovery systems and smart burners for cost reduction.

Environmental Note:
Switching from traditional single-burner ovens to multi-zone controlled Darin models can reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 25% per year.

Step 9. Transition to Cooling Section

Once baked, biscuits exit the oven at around 90–100 °C. They must cool gradually to prevent cracking and moisture condensation inside packaging. The next section of the line handles this automatically through oil spraying and cooling conveyors.

End of Part 3 Summary

Forming and baking are the heart of biscuit manufacturing. The rotary cutter or molder determines the precision of shape, while the tunnel oven defines the texture, color, and final moisture balance. By combining multi-zone temperature control, PID regulation, and heat recovery, Darin Machinery achieves stable, energy-efficient biscuit baking with industry-leading quality standards.

Part 4 — Oil Spraying, Cooling & Packaging: Ensuring Biscuit Gloss, Freshness, and Shelf Life

When biscuits exit the tunnel oven, they are fully baked but still fragile and hot (around 90–100 °C). Direct packaging at this stage would cause condensation inside wrappers, leading to loss of crispness and microbial spoilage. Therefore, modern biscuit lines include post-baking treatment, cooling, and automated packaging systems to stabilize product moisture and prolong shelf life.

Step 10. Oil Spraying — Enhancing Appearance and Flavor

Oil spraying (also known as greasing or polishing) adds a thin layer of edible oil or sugar syrup onto the biscuit surface. This improves appearance, imparts flavor, and prevents moisture uptake during storage.

Key Functions:

• Adds golden gloss and uniform surface color.
• Enhances flavor perception through light fat coating.
• Acts as a barrier to humidity.

Process Principle:
The oil is pumped through fine atomizing nozzles that create a mist, evenly covering biscuits as they pass on the conveyor. A collection tray recycles excess oil.

Engineering Tips:

• Use refined palm or sunflower oil with high oxidative stability.
• Oil temperature must remain constant to avoid uneven coating.
• Install exhaust hoods above the sprayer to prevent vapor accumulation.

Step 11. Cooling Conveyors — Moisture Stabilization and Crack Prevention

After oil spraying, biscuits are cooled to near-ambient temperature (30–35 °C). Controlled cooling is essential to prevent condensation once packaged.

Cooling System Types:

1. Ambient Cooling Conveyor: Utilizes room air for natural convection — ideal for moderate climates.
2. Forced Air Cooling Tunnel: Equipped with fans and blowers — for high-capacity lines or humid climates.
3. Air-Conditioned Cooling Room: Temperature- and humidity-controlled — for premium biscuit lines.

Cooling Principle:
Heat exchange occurs by forced convection. Uniform air circulation ensures all biscuits cool evenly across the belt width.

Key Control Parameters:

• Maintain ambient humidity below 60 %.
• Ensure airflow direction opposite to conveyor movement for gradual temperature gradient.
• Prevent direct cold air jets that cause surface cracks.

Quality Insight:
Improper cooling is a leading cause of post-baking breakage and flavor degradation. Biscuits cooled too quickly become brittle; too slowly, they absorb moisture and lose crispness.

Step 12. Stacking and Alignment

Once cooled, biscuits must be stacked into uniform rows or piles ready for packaging. This stage requires precision handling to prevent chipping or misalignment, especially at high line speeds (300 – 1 000 biscuits/min).

Operation Sequence:

1. Biscuits enter from cooling conveyor.
2. Sensors count biscuits per row.
3. Servo stackers group and deliver to the packaging infeed.

Engineering Note:
Stacking units must have soft-contact polyurethane paddles to prevent edge breakage. Belt tension and speed synchronization are essential to avoid biscuit overlap.

Step 13. Packaging Systems — Protecting Freshness and Shelf Life

Packaging is not just the final step — it’s a barrier technology that preserves product quality, ensures hygiene, and enhances brand presentation.

A. Primary Packaging: Flow Wrapping Machines

Most modern biscuit plants use horizontal flow pack machines that wrap biscuits individually, in slugs, or in trays.

Machine Features:

• Servo-driven feed rollers and sealing jaws.
• Touch-screen HMI with recipe memory.
• Auto photo-eye registration for print marks.
• Nitrogen flushing option for extended shelf life.

Material Options:

• BOPP / Polypropylene / Metalized film for barrier protection.
• Heat-sealable laminates for strong seals.

B. Secondary Packaging: Cartoning and Case Packing

After primary wrapping, biscuits are automatically packed into cartons, boxes, or corrugated cases for transport.

Traceability:
Integration with Darin’s central control allows batch tracking, QR code printing, and automatic rejection of underweight or unsealed packs.

C. Quality Control and Safety Inspection

To ensure only defect-free products reach the consumer, automated inspection systems are installed just before final packaging.

Engineering Tip:
Metal detectors must be calibrated weekly and located after cooling but before final sealing to prevent interference from heat or moisture.

Step 14. Storage & Distribution Conditions

After packaging, finished products should be stored in clean, dry conditions.
Typical warehouse standards:

Logistics Advice:
Use FIFO (First-In-First-Out) management to maintain freshness. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or high humidity during transport.

Step 15. Automation Integration — Smart Factory Biscuit Packaging

Darin Machinery integrates end-to-end automation from the oven outfeed to final carton sealing. All systems communicate via an industrial Ethernet network (Profinet or EtherCAT).

Key Control Features:

• Central PLC + SCADA dashboard for monitoring all conveyors and machines.
• Real-time OEE (Overall Equipment Efficiency) data.
