ZL-A58 Pan Arranging Machine
The ZL-A58 pan arranging machine places 1,000-12,000 pieces per hour, with piece weight from 15-350 g and parallel or cross arrangement on double or three rows. Positioning is by servo motor, and the PLC holds 99 memory groups. 2.5 kW, 380V or 220V, 1550 x 1820 x 1680 mm, 465 kg, SUS304.
Product Overview
The ZL-A58 pan arranging machine is an automatic panning machine in the ZL-180 Series Machines category, built to place dough pieces onto baking pans in a set pattern for bakery production lines. It runs on a PLC control system with 99 memory groups, handles 1000 to 12000 pieces per hour depending on product size, and takes pieces from 15 to 350 g. The frame is SUS304 stainless steel.
Bakeries that pan by hand lose speed and consistency as line rates climb. The ZL-A58 removes that manual step: the computer judges the arrangement and piece count, and the servo positioning system places each piece to the pattern you set. One operator can change from a parallel to a cross layout from the memory bank instead of re-setting the line by hand.
Key Features
- PLC control with 99 memory groups: store a pattern for each product and recall it at changeover instead of re-entering settings.
- Servo motor positioning system: piece placement stays accurate at line speed, so rows land where the pattern expects them.
- Parallel or cross arrangement: set the layout to match the pan and the product, not the other way round.
- Automatic judgement and calculation: the computer works out the arrangement and piece count, which cuts operator input at changeover.
- Fault alarm beep function: an alarm sounds when the machine detects a fault, so the line stops before a run of mis-panned product builds up.
- Double row and three row arrangement: the arrangement can be built to customer requirements for higher-throughput lines.
- SUS304 stainless steel construction: the frame and product-contact surfaces suit a wet bakery environment and routine washdown.

Industrial Applications
- Pan arranging machine for bakery production: plant bakeries running continuous lines use the ZL-A58 to place dough pieces on pans at rates from 1000 to 12000 p/h, removing the manual panning step that limits line speed.
- Pan arranging machine for bun lines: bun plants running 15-350 g pieces set a parallel pattern in the memory bank and recall it at each product change, so the same machine handles several bun sizes.
- Pan arranging machine for bread plant: bread plants with fixed pan layouts use the cross arrangement and the computer-calculated piece count to keep rows aligned through the run.
- Pan arranging machine for automated panning: bakeries adding automation to an existing line fit the ZL-A58 ahead of the proofer or oven, where the servo positioning system places pieces to the pattern the downstream equipment expects.
Key Advantages
- The 99-group memory bank turns changeover into a recall step, so a plant running several products spends minutes on setup rather than re-entering the pattern by hand.
- Servo positioning holds placement accuracy at the top of the 1000-12000 p/h range, which is where manual panning and fixed mechanical guides start to drift.
- The computer calculates the arrangement and piece count for each run, so the operator does not have to work out the pattern before starting.
- A 15-350 g weight range covers small buns through larger bread pieces on one machine, which reduces the number of units a plant needs to buy.
- SUS304 construction and a 2.5 kW drive suit a wet bakery floor, and the fault alarm gives the line crew a warning before mis-panned product accumulates.
How to Choose the Right Configuration
| Standard ZL-A58 with parallel arrangement | suits bakeries running one or two pan layouts where rows run straight along the pan. |
|---|---|
| ZL-A58 with cross arrangement | suits plants whose pan layout or downstream equipment needs the pieces turned across the pan. |
| ZL-A58 with double row arrangement | for lines that want two rows per pan and a higher piece count per cycle. |
| ZL-A58 with three row arrangement | for high-throughput products where the pan takes three rows. |
| 380V configuration | for plants with a 380V three-phase supply. |
| 220V configuration | for sites where 220V is the available supply. |

Factory Strength
The ZL-A58 is built in-house, from the SUS304 frame and sheet metal through the electrical panel, PLC and servo system, to assembly and test. Each unit is run before packing: the arrangement patterns are checked in both parallel and cross modes, the memory groups are loaded, and the fault alarm is triggered to confirm it sounds. Machines are built to the voltage and arrangement specified on the order. Export packing and shipping are handled from our plant, and we work with buyers in overseas bakery markets on a regular basis.
Quality Control
Incoming SUS304 sheet and bought-in components such as the PLC, servo motor and electrical parts are checked against the order specification before they enter assembly. In-process checks follow the build through frame welding, electrical wiring and PLC programming. Each finished machine is run to confirm the arrangement modes, memory recall and alarm function.
- Incoming material check on stainless steel and electrical components
- In-process inspection at frame, wiring and programming stages
- Final run test of parallel and cross arrangement and the 99 memory groups
- Fault alarm test before packing
Packaging & Delivery
The ZL-A58 is packed for export in a wooden case sized to the 1550 x 1820 x 1680 mm machine, with the electrical panel and loose parts protected separately. We confirm the voltage and arrangement before packing so the unit matches the order. Shipping is arranged from the port against the trade terms agreed at quotation.

FAQ
How does the ZL-A58 pan arranging machine work?
Dough pieces feed into the machine, the PLC and computer calculate the arrangement and piece count, and the servo positioning system places each piece onto the pan in the stored pattern. The operator selects the memory group for the product being run.
What do the 99 memory groups store?
Each group holds an arrangement recipe, so a product’s pattern can be recalled at changeover instead of re-entered. The group list is set up to match your product range when the machine is ordered.
What capacity can the machine reach?
Capacity is 1000 to 12000 pieces per hour depending on product size, and the machine handles pieces from 15 to 350 g. Tell us your piece weight and target rate and we will confirm which arrangement suits it.
Can the ZL-A58 run a cross arrangement as well as parallel?
Yes. The arrangement can be set to parallel or cross, and double row and three row versions can be built to customer requirements.
Can this pan arranging machine for bakery production handle our bun sizes?
The 15-350 g weight range covers most bun and bread pieces. Send the piece weight, pan dimensions and required rate, and we will confirm the arrangement and memory group setup.
Is the pan arranging machine for automated panning compatible with an existing line?
It is placed ahead of the proofer or oven in a bakery line. Share the line layout and the pattern the downstream equipment expects, and we will confirm the arrangement mode and machine position.
What is the pan arranging machine price?
Price depends on the arrangement (parallel, cross, double row or three row), the voltage and any OEM requirements. Send your product size and capacity target and we will quote the configuration that fits.
What is your MOQ and lead time?
MOQ and lead time are confirmed at quotation, since they depend on the configuration and the current build schedule. A single unit can be quoted for a trial.
What voltage does the machine use, and can it be supplied for our site?
The standard supply is 380V/220V. Confirm your site voltage at order so the electrical panel is built to match.
