Biscuit Production Line and Factory Setup

A biscuit production line is an integrated industrial system designed to prepare ingredients, mix dough, form biscuits, bake in a tunnel oven, cool, stack, optionally cream-fill and package the finished product. The line produces plain and cream-filled biscuits with consistent quality.

From an industrial perspective, biscuit manufacturing is important because it combines precise ingredient preparation, controlled dough mixing, accurate forming, high-temperature tunnel baking (200–250 °C, length 30–60 m) and optional cream filling to achieve uniform texture, color and shelf life. The process relies on a defined sequence of unit operations that must be correctly engineered and integrated.

Primary raw materials typically include flour, sugar, oil, milk powder, baking powder, water, vanilla, cocoa and cream. Core machinery consists of flour sifters, sugar grinders, confectionery mixers, dough mixers (Vidax type), biscuit forming/printing machines, tunnel ovens (200–250 °C, 30–60 m), cooling belts, stackers, cream-filling machines and packaging machines.

The Industrial Department supports investors establishing a new biscuit factory as well as existing plant owners requiring repair, overhaul, capacity expansion or automation of current lines. Projects can start from an empty site or from an operating facility that needs technical upgrading.

Whether the goal is a green-field turnkey biscuit plant in Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan or other regional markets, or the modernization of an existing line in Iran, engineering, machinery supply or manufacturing, installation, commissioning and ongoing technical support can be provided under defined contractual scopes.

Production Line Overview

The biscuit production line is engineered as an integrated process system covering ingredient preparation, dough mixing, forming, tunnel baking, cooling, stacking, optional cream filling and packaging. Design capacity is determined during the engineering phase according to market demand.

Product types include plain and cream-filled biscuits of various designs. The overall process flow follows a defined sequence: flour sifting and sugar grinding, dough mixing, forming/printing, tunnel baking at 200–250 °C, cooling, stacking, optional cream filling and packaging.

Main machinery groups include sifters, grinders, mixers, forming machines, tunnel ovens, cooling belts, stackers, cream fillers and packaging machines. Supporting infrastructure covers electrical power, gas and process water.

Manpower requirements depend on the degree of automation. Quality control covers dough consistency, shape uniformity, baking color and packaging integrity. Finished product is stored under controlled conditions before distribution.

Technical Specifications

The following technical data represent typical ranges for an industrial biscuit production line. Final values are defined during basic and detailed engineering and may vary according to selected technology, level of automation, product portfolio and factory layout. For precise project-specific figures, contact the Industrial Department.

All figures are indicative. Detailed utility balances, equipment lists and layout drawings are prepared after process definition and capacity confirmation.

Products

An industrial biscuit production line can manufacture plain and cream-filled biscuits of various designs and sizes according to market requirements.

Raw Materials for Biscuit Factory

Raw material selection and quality control are critical for texture and flavor. The main materials used are described below.

Main Raw Materials

• Flour, sugar, oil, milk powder, baking powder, water, vanilla, cocoa – Form the dough.
• Cream – Used for filled varieties.

Secondary / Optional Materials

• Packaging materials and cartons

Storage and handling conditions must be controlled to preserve ingredient quality.

Manufacturing Process

The industrial biscuit process follows a defined sequence of unit operations.

1. Ingredient Preparation – Flour is sifted and sugar is ground.
2. Dough Mixing – Ingredients are mixed in a confectionery mixer and then in a dough mixer (Vidax type) to the required consistency.
3. Forming – Dough is formed and printed by a biscuit forming/printing machine.
4. Baking – Formed biscuits are baked in a tunnel oven at 200–250 °C (length 30–60 m).
5. Cooling and Stacking – Baked biscuits are cooled on a cooling belt and stacked by a stacker.
6. Cream Filling (optional) – Cream is applied between biscuits by a cream-filling machine.
7. Packaging – Finished biscuits are packaged.
