Lorien uses its loaf

Cheshire-based family bakery, Frank
Roberts & Sons, has called upon the
skills of compliance experts at
Lorien Engineering Solutions to
complete a multi million pound
automation project to extend
existing process and packaging plant.

Tony Reynolds, compliance
manager at Lorien, has been working
with a bread slicing and bagging
machinery supplier in Los Angeles
and a basket conveying system
engineering company in
Christchurch, New Zealand, which
have been selected to provide
machinery for the project. As well as
assessing the machinery against
European Harmonised Standards,
Reynolds modified the guarding and
control systems to ensure that the
equipment would meet the stringent
CE marking legislation.
