How to Choose the Right Shami Bread Oven for Your Bakery

The right oven size depends on the bakery's target production volume. Tray dimensions alone should not determine the final choice.

Choosing an Oven with a Capacity of 700 Loaves per Hour

For a bakery targeting up to 700 loaves per hour, consider the 1.25 m Shami bread oven. It features an 8 mm disc and a 1 HP motor.

Choosing an Oven with a Capacity of 1,300 Loaves per Hour

For a target production volume of up to 1,300 loaves per hour, the 1.5 m option provides a higher stated capacity than the smaller size, with a 1 HP motor and an 8 mm disc.

Choosing an Oven with a Capacity of 2,400 Loaves per Hour

For projects targeting up to 2,400 loaves per hour, the 2 m Shami bread oven is the largest available option. It features a 2 HP motor and a 10 mm disc.

Before making a final decision, review your expected demand and bakery operating requirements with the supplier to ensure that the selected capacity is suitable for your project.

Technical Components to Consider When Buying a Shami Bread Oven

In addition to tray size and production capacity, review the following technical components when comparing Shami bread ovens:

  • Motor: 1 HP for the 1.25 m and 1.5 m sizes, and 2 HP for the 2 m size.
  • Gearbox: All three sizes use a Military Factories gearbox.
  • Crown gear: Specified as American Jeep across the three options.
  • Thermal insulation: Density 90 across all three sizes.
  • Refractory bricks: Included in all three ovens. Internal lining is explicitly specified for the 1.25 m and 1.5 m sizes.
  • Disc thickness: 8 mm for the two smaller sizes and 10 mm for the 2 m size.

Reviewing these specifications helps bakery owners understand the technical differences before choosing an oven.
