Ensure long-term preservation with Advanced Aroma Dispensers

Today, bakery industry producers face ever-increasing demands. Among the primary requirements are: ensuring a quality product, accessing ever-larger markets, and producing with natural ingredients without the addition of chemical additives harmful to health.

Traditionally, these objectives have been pursued by adding chemical additives which, over time, have proven harmful to human health and the environment. However, thanks to in-depth research, a more natural solution has been identified: the use of ethyl alcohol–based aromas.

Ethyl alcohol has antimicrobial properties and regulates humidity. Applied to the product’s surface before packaging, it ensures a longer shelf life, preserving quality and freshness. (Alcohol 96°)

To support producers in this process, Azzali Elettronica has developed a system for applying ethyl alcohol–based aromas: the Alcohol Aroma Dispensers.

The application process is divided into three phases:

1. Applying a specific quantity of alcohol or aroma to the product.
2. Hermetically packaging the product inside plastic film.
3. Interaction of the alcohol or aroma with the product, humidity, and air to stabilize bacterial activity within the package.

Alcohol Aroma Dispenser: Precision, Safety, and Versatility.

The dosing system uses high-performance nozzles that guarantee precise and repeatable doses. Dosing is carried out at low pressure, preventing dripping and ensuring work cycles of up to 400 ppm.

Designed with particular attention to workplace safety, the Alcohol Aroma Dispenser is suitable for any production environment.

Thanks to its versatility, it can be adapted to various categories of baked goods, such as sliced bread, buns, and pound cakes. This makes it ideal both for large-scale production industries and small producers.

Adopting innovative technologies in production processes makes it possible to increase product shelf life, improving preservation and boosting sales. The result? Products that last longer and consumers who are increasingly satisfied with the quality.

To further enhance precision and efficiency, a vision system can be integrated into the production line. This system detects the exact position and orientation of each product. By analyzing products in real time, the vision system minimizes errors, reduces waste, and optimizes overall throughput, guaranteeing uniform quality and improved production performance.

Since 1986, Azzali Elettronica has been a point of reference in the food and beverage automation sector. Since 1998, it has been active with the Alcohol Aroma Dispenser, boasting notable know-how that has made it one of the leading dispenser manufacturers at the European level. 

With an almost 20-year partnership with Cognex and experience in vision systems, Azzali Elettronica is now the ideal partner for anyone looking to develop and integrate innovative solutions.
