Three New HAZITEK Projects Strengthen Salva’s Leadership in Bakery Equipment

Salva’s R&D Department Secures Funding for Three Strategic Projects in Bakery Ovens and Smart Bakery Equipment

At Salva, we continue to strengthen our leadership in the development of bakery equipment and next-generation bakery ovens. Our R&D Department has been awarded funding for the development of three strategic technological innovation projects, focused on energy efficiency, advanced digitalization, and the application of Artificial Intelligence in professional ovens and bakery machinery.

These projects consolidate our position as a benchmark in industrial ovens, bakery technology, and smart solutions for the retail and in-store bakery sector.

SCAPHOR

New Retractable Automatic Door Concepts for High-Efficiency Professional Ovens in Retail

The SCAPHOR project drives the development of an innovative retractable automatic door system that will enable the design of a new generation of high-efficiency, high-performance bakery ovens, especially tailored to retail environments and in-store production points.

This innovation in bakery equipment will allow us to:

• Improve energy efficiency in industrial ovens

• Optimize thermal performance

• Increase operator safety and ergonomics

• Make better use of space at the point of sale

• Reduce heat loss and energy consumption

With SCAPHOR, we advance in the development of more efficient, sustainable bakery machinery adapted to new market demands.

AIDIS

AI-Based Smart Connectivity System for Ovens and Bakery Processes

The AIDIS project will enhance Salva’s connectivity system by incorporating new Artificial Intelligence-based functionalities, applicable both at oven/machine level and in the comprehensive management of the bakery process.

This solution strengthens the digital transformation of bakery equipment, offering:

• Intelligent real-time monitoring of bakery ovens

• Automatic optimization of baking parameters

• Predictive analysis of the production process

• Improved production traceability

• Reduced incidents and predictive maintenance

• Greater control and efficiency in bakeries and retail chains

AIDIS positions our professional ovens as connected, intelligent systems ready for Bakery 4.0.

SMARTBAKE

Digital Twins and Artificial Intelligence for the Efficient Regulation of Industrial Ovens

SMARTBAKE represents a strategic commitment to research in digital twins and advanced Artificial Intelligence models applied to bakery ovens and efficient baking technologies.

This project will enable:

• Digital simulation of industrial oven performance

• Dynamic adjustment of baking parameters

• Reduced energy consumption in bakery processes

• Minimization of waste and improved profitability

• Greater uniformity and quality consistency in the final product

With SMARTBAKE, we take a decisive step toward the next generation of smart bakery ovens, integrating digitalization, energy efficiency, and production process optimization.

Innovation in Bakery Equipment for a More Efficient and Digital Sector

The granting of this funding recognizes the work of our R&D Department and reinforces our commitment to developing more efficient, sustainable, and intelligent bakery ovens.

At Salva, we continue investing in innovation to deliver high-performance bakery equipment, adapted to the current challenges of the sector: energy efficiency, digitalization, automation, and continuous process improvement.

We remain committed to leading the future of professional ovens and bakery machinery, driving a more technological, profitable, and sustainable bakery industry.
