Method and apparatus for stretching dough.

摘要

An apparatus for stretching and thinning dough comprises a plurality of conveyors (2,3) disposed in series, with the travelling speed of the downstream conveyor (3) higher than that of the upstream conveyor (2), a first roller (5) arranged to reciprocate over a given distance (l2) transverse to the travelling direction of the dough while reciprocating over a given distance (l1) in the travelling direction, and a second roller (4) that reciprocates over a given distance (l1) in the travelling direction in synchronism with the first roller. The reciprocating strokes and the speed of both rollers are regulated to obtain a sheet of high quality dough with a uniform texture. <IMAGE>
