Just like the Grande Rex, the Grande Rex Futura was developed for the dividing and rounding of great weights. In the Futura version, two different piston sizes have been integrated in the dividing drum of this dough dividing and rounding machine. As with all Futura versions, this simple principle makes it possible to extend the weight range of the dough pieces enormously. Switching between the chamber sizes is performed electro-mechanically without any interruption of the production sequence.

The dough is filled into the hopper.
Rotating star rollers (dough feeding stars) cut the dough into suitable portions (depending on the single weight of the dough pieces) which are then conveyed into the dividing area.
The horizontally moving slider presses the dough into the opening of the dividing drum. The excess dough is removed by a scraper ledge and returned to the dividing area.
After an anti-clockwise rotation by 90°, the dough pieces are rounded by means of an oscillating rounding plate. The rounding eccentric can be adjusted to suit the consistency and weight of the dough.
After another 90° rotation, the dough pieces are transferred to the discharge belt.
