The increasing interest in automation in bakers is due to increased product quality and consistency, as well as the ease of data and analytics tools that have reduced investment and time to value. Ryan Thompson, senior specialist of Industry 4.0 at CRB, suggests that the most impactful automation technology for bakeries is the idea of a golden batch, which can help identify the perfect batch and adjust the process for changes in ingredient quality and the plant’s environment based on temperature and humidity. AI can also be paired with pick-and-place robotics to improve product orientation, a challenge faced by high-speed machines when product is touching or overlapping, and can adjust recipes and processes based on changes in ingredients. However, a robust and healthy data set is crucial for developing data models designed to leverage AI.
