Arranging dough pieces or finished products onto baking trays is a tedious, time-consuming manual task. It takes workers away from skilled jobs, introduces inconsistency, and creates a bottleneck in your production line.

The HM-860 Automatic Tray Arranging Machine solves this problem. Designed for commercial bakeries, frozen food producers, and high-volume production facilities, this machine automatically arranges products onto trays at speeds of 1,000 to 7,000 pieces per hour.

What This Machine Does

The HM-860 is an automatic tray arranging machine that places dough pieces or finished products onto baking trays in organized rows. It works seamlessly with upstream equipment such as dough dividers, forming machines, or cutting lines. The machine handles parallel or cross arrangements and calculates the optimal layout automatically.

Key specifications:

  • Model: HM-860

  • Capacity: 1,000–7,000 pieces per hour

  • Power: 2.0 kW

  • Dimensions: 1550 × 1100 × 1680 mm

  • Weight: 465 kg

PLC Control with 99-Group Memory

The HM-860 features a PLC control system with built-in 99-group memory function. This allows operators to save settings for different products, tray sizes, and arrangement patterns.

Benefits of the memory function:

  • Quick changeover between products

  • No need to reprogram for repeat orders

  • Consistent arrangement every time

  • Reduced operator error

Once a product is programmed, recalling the settings takes seconds. This is especially valuable for bakeries running multiple product lines or seasonal items.

Parallel or Cross Arrangement Modes

Different products require different tray layouts. Some need parallel rows for uniform baking. Others need cross arrangements for better spacing or cooling airflow.

The HM-860 supports both parallel and cross arrangement modes, which can be set easily through the control panel. The machine automatically adjusts placement to match the selected mode.

Automatic Arrangement Calculation

The machine does more than just place products. It automatically judges and calculates the arrangement mode and quantity based on tray size and product dimensions.

This smart feature:

  • Eliminates manual layout planning

  • Maximizes tray utilization

  • Prevents overcrowding or wasted space

  • Adjusts automatically for different product sizes

Operators simply select the product and tray type. The machine handles the rest.

Servo Motor Drive for Precise Placement

Accuracy matters in tray arranging. Products placed off-center can bake unevenly. Overlapping products stick together. Poor spacing reduces oven capacity.

The HM-860 uses a servo motor drive system that ensures precise product placement every time. Servo motors provide:

  • Exact positioning to within millimeters

  • Consistent placement across thousands of pieces

  • Smooth, reliable operation at high speeds

  • No drift or variation over time

Easy to Operate

Despite its advanced capabilities, the HM-860 is designed for easy operation.

  • Intuitive PLC interface

  • Simple mode selection (parallel/cross)

  • One-touch recall of saved settings

  • Minimal operator training required

One operator can manage the machine while overseeing other production tasks.

Benefits of Automatic Tray Arranging

Higher throughput – Arranges 1,000 to 7,000 pieces per hour, far exceeding manual rates.

Labor savings – Frees workers for skilled tasks like quality control and maintenance.

Consistent spacing – Even gaps for uniform baking and cooling.

Maximum tray utilization – Smart calculation fits more products per tray.

Quick changeover – 99-group memory allows instant recall of product settings.

Reduced waste – No overcrowding, no underfilled trays.

Precise placement – Servo drive ensures accurate positioning.

Common Applications

The HM-860 works with a wide range of products:

Product

Typical Arrangement

Dinner rolls

Parallel rows for even baking

Cookies

Cross arrangement for maximum tray use

Buns

Parallel or cross based on size

Dough portions

Even spacing for proofing

Small pastries

Dense arrangement for freezing

Mantou / Steamed buns

Parallel rows for steaming trays

Integration with Production Lines

The HM-860 is designed to work seamlessly with upstream equipment:

  • Dough dividers – Receives portioned dough directly

  • Forming machines – Arranges shaped products

  • Cutting lines – Places cut pieces onto trays

  • Conveyor systems – Syncs with existing material flow

The machine can be positioned at the end of your forming or cutting line, eliminating manual tray loading entirely.
