Bagel Forming Machine
The U-BG001 bagel former runs 2,400-3,600 pcs/h at 70-130 g per bagel and up to 50 pcs per minute, working with the ZL-180 sheeter and ZL-A26. Mould size is adjustable for OEM bagel sizes. 1.5 kW, 380V 50Hz, 1900 x 550 x 1030 mm, 200 kg, SUS304, 2-3 operators per unit.
Product Overview
The bagel production line is an industrial bagel line that takes dough from a sheeter through make-up and forming to a shaped, sealed ring. The standard build pairs the ZL-180 and ZL-A26 with the U-BG001 bagel former, runs 1000-3000 units per hour at 70-130 g per bagel, and uses SUS304 for the food-contact frames. It suits bakeries, central kitchens and frozen-bread plants that want to move off hand-rolling without giving up ring consistency.
The line solves the two problems that follow bagel shaping out of a manual bench: output that depends on how many hands you can hire, and rings that vary in weight and seal from one batch to the next. Running speed is adjustable, so the same line can hold a steady 1000 pcs/h on a light shift or push toward 3000 pcs/h when orders build. Two to three operators cover the whole line.
Key Features
- Automatic bagel forming machine: the U-BG001 closes each ring completely, so bagels stay sealed and connected through boiling and baking.
- Output range of 1000-3000 units per hour: a single line covers small retail batches and high-volume production runs with the same footprint.
- Weight range of 70-130 g: one former handles standard retail bagels and larger deli sizes without a second machine.
- Adjustable running speed: the line can be slowed for a new dough recipe and brought back up once the crumb is stable.
- SUS304 construction: frames and guards are built in food-grade stainless steel for washdown and hygiene routines.
- Mold size adjustment and OEM orders: ring diameter and bagel size can be specified to match your product range.
- 2-3 operators per line: staffing stays flat as output rises, which keeps labor cost per bagel predictable.

Industrial Applications

- Bagel making machine for bakery: retail and wholesale bakeries running 1000-3000 bagels a day use the line to hold ring size and weight across shifts, with the adjustable former mold set to their standard 70-130 g product.
- Automatic bagel forming machine for food factory: frozen-bread and par-baked plants need sealed rings that survive freezing and re-baking; the U-BG001 closes each ring completely before it leaves the line.
- Industrial bagel line for central kitchen: commissaries supplying cafe chains and sandwich shops run the line on a fixed schedule, with 2-3 operators loading dough and unloading formed bagels.
- Bagel production for private label: OEM mold sizes let a producer run a customer’s specified ring diameter and weight without changing the rest of the line.
- Bagel production for food service distributors: high-volume accounts use the adjustable speed to match daily order books, slowing the line for specialty doughs and running faster on standard recipes.
Key Advantages
- The former closes every ring before it reaches the tray, which removes the hand-pinching step and the rework that comes with open seams.
- A 1000-3000 pcs/h range on one line means a buyer can start at retail volume and add shifts rather than add machines; the adjustable speed setting is what makes that practical.
- SUS304 frames and guards cut cleaning time between runs, and the material stands up to the washdown routine a bakery already runs.
- OEM mold sizes let a producer quote a private-label bagel at the customer’s ring diameter without buying a second former.
- Two to three operators cover the line, so labor cost per bagel falls as output rises toward the top of the range.
- The former, sheeter and make-up station are built and tested as one matched set, so throughput stays balanced across the line instead of one unit becoming the bottleneck.
How to Choose the Right Configuration
| Standard U-BG001 with ZL-180 and ZL-A26 | bakeries and food factories producing 70-130 g bagels at 1000-3000 pcs/h; the three-unit build is the base configuration. |
|---|---|
| OEM mold size | private-label producers who need a specific ring diameter or bagel weight outside the standard mold; specify the size at order. |
| Adjustable sheeter setting | plants running several dough recipes; the 1-99 pressing passes and 0.8-1.8 cm thickness range let one line cover them. |
| PLC tray arrangement | operations packing into trays for retail or freezing; the 99-set memory stores each layout. |
| Higher-output planning | buyers forecasting above 3000 pcs/h should confirm line balancing with the factory before ordering, since the stated capacity tops out there. |
Why Choose Us
We quote the configuration that fits your bagel size and hourly target, and we confirm the bagel production line price against the mold and options you select.OEM orders are accepted for different bagel sizes, with the mold adjusted at build rather than sold as a separate retrofit.
We build the former, sheeter and make-up station as one matched set, so the units arrive balanced for the same throughput.
Spare molds and wear parts are quoted with the line so a buyer can plan for size changes.
We ship from our plant and confirm voltage and staffing against your site before dispatch.
Every line carries a 12-month warranty on the former, sheeter and make-up station, with remote technical support for setup and changeover and spare parts held for dispatch from our plant.Factory Strength
The line is assembled and tested in-house: the former, sheeter and make-up station are built as one set, wired to 380V 50Hz, and run with dough before packing.
