LF-420 Ring Tube Oven 7.95 m² on 4 levels
General Presentation
The Logiudice Forni LF-420 is a ring tube steam oven from the PRIME range, designed for bakers who want to increase their baking area without unnecessarily expanding the oven layout. With its 4 decks, 2 doors 62 cm wide, and 7.95 m² baking surface, it offers an ideal configuration for organizing multiple batches of bread within a manageable exterior footprint.
Why this model stands out
The LF-420 combines a solid concrete structure, a masonry firebox and flue, and a system of annular steam tubes (35 mm diameter) with a double transverse tube (27 mm diameter). This design promotes even heat distribution and good thermal inertia, two essential factors for achieving consistent baking on multiple decks. Its 4-tier design allows for better distribution of baking times, particularly when the bakery has to manage different types of bread or multiple production schedules.
Key Advantages
- 7.95 m² of baking surface spread over 4 tiers, increasing capacity within a compact width.
- Even baking thanks to the annular steam tubes and the thermal mass of the masonry structure.
- Traditional annular tube oven recommended for baking all types of bread.
- Independent steam generators located under the chambers, with steam vents.
- Operates with an oil or gas burner, and a front firebox designed for solid fuels, biofuel, or pellets.
- Digital control panel with 99 programs and automatic start timer, or electromechanical control panel.
- alternative.
