Oven Loading Frames

Features and Benefits of the Oven Loading Frame

The Bakeit oven loading frame is engineered to make loading operations faster, more precise and safer, improving workflow efficiency in both bakeries and pizzerias.

• Built from silver anodized aluminium and equipped with natural cotton cloths, the Bakeit frame guarantees durability, hygiene and stability even under intensive, daily use.

• Increasing the amount of dough loaded in a single batch not only boosts productivity but also delivers significant energy savings. By loading the entire oven chamber in one cycle, you greatly reduce door openings and therefore heat loss. Compared to traditional peels — which require multiple insertions — the frame maintains temperature stability and optimises overall oven energy consumption.

• With standard widths of 580/590 mm and lengths ranging from 1200 to 4700 mm, the frame offers a much larger loading surface than a conventional peel. This allows you to load higher volumes of bread, pinsa and focaccia in a single pass, with the option to request custom-built versions tailored to your oven to maximise throughput.

• The frame design ensures smooth, controlled sliding along the guide rail, guaranteeing perfect dough placement on the oven deck. The entire operation becomes faster, more streamlined and safer, reducing handling time while increasing overall productivity.

How to Professionally Load Bread and Pizza Using the Frames

An efficient loading system is essential for optimising time, space and product quality. In professional bakeries, each step — from mixing to baking — must be accurate and coordinated to deliver consistent, high-quality results.

Bakeit frames with cotton cloths are the ideal starting point. Designed to support dough during proofing, they allow easy transfer into the oven while preserving shape and internal structure. The natural, breathable cotton cloth prevents sticking and promotes even rising, improving the final bake.

To handle multiple batches simultaneously, frame trolleys offer a practical and hygienic solution. They allow you to organise and transport dozens of frames at once, ensuring stability and order throughout the production process.

For larger or multi-deck ovens, the guided lifting cart is the perfect accessory. It allows you to insert frames into upper decks quickly, precisely and safely, reducing strain on the operator and eliminating insertion errors.

Together, these accessories help automate and accelerate the loading process, reducing handling time and improving the overall efficiency of the bakery.

Frequently Asked Questions about Oven Loading Frames

To help you choose the most suitable frame for your production needs, we’ve collected the answers to the questions we’re most frequently asked by bakery professionals.

What are the prices of oven loading frames?
