The BIP 72-M is an intermediate proofer suitable for many common dough types, such as wheat and wheat/rye dough. It processes dough pieces without the use of any dusting flour. Via the infeed system, the rounded dough pieces are dropped into the proofer pockets, while the proofer runs intermittently for 100% filling or continuously. The ultraviolet lamps prevent mold forming on the inside of the proofer, and the transparent polycarbonate windows allow for visual inspection of the dough pieces.
