Air Operated Pie Depanner - SMP005
Making Flipping Pies Easy for Smaller Bakeries
Designed after feedback from pie makers, the SMP005 air-powered pie depanner has been adapted to suit smaller bakery production runs without the higher price tag of the more flexible and programmable Electronic Model SMP004 which is designed for bakeries producing 3,000+ pies a day.
It is a game changer as it still takes the hard work out of depanning pies and is almost as fast as the SMP004 and delivers many of the same benefits.
Why Smaller Bakeries Love the SMP005 Pie Depanner
Cost-Effective Automation: Ideal for bakeries wanting to speed up depanning without a large capital outlay.
Excellent ROI: Labour savings and reduced waste mean the payback period is short. (Use our Payback Calculator to calculate your potential savings)
Faster Production: One person can depan 24 pies from oven rack to cooling rack in under 30 seconds — only about 10% slower than two people working manually.
Dramatic Waste Reduction: Cut waste by up to 90% — some bakeries report no waste at all.
Safer for Staff: Removes the physical strain of manually flipping loaded pie pallets, reducing the risk of overuse injuries.
Self Adjusting Height: You don’t need to be stuck with a fixed product height pie depanner. It depans a wide range of product heights without changes. From savouries, mini pies, family pies to the deepest gourmet pies.
A Smarter Way to Depan
For bakeries producing less than 3,000 pies a day, the SMP005 pie depanner offers a practical step into automation — saving time, reducing waste, and making the pie flipping process safer and easier.
