As your pizzeria reaches peak rush hours, every moment counts. Northern Pizza Equipment’s commercially rated equipment allows you to streamline the process, increase production, and get pies out hot and fast every time. Here is the must have equipment that will make those rush hours go by in a breeze.
1. High-Capacity Conveyor Ovens
A robust conveyor oven is the backbone of any busy pizzeria.
- That’s why the XLT 3870 Gas Conveyor Oven is ideal. Its 70″ chamber and advanced hot air retention ensures rapid baking with minimal end-heat loss.
- For slightly smaller spaces, the XLT 3240 Gas Conveyor Oven gives you the same patented airflow tech and bi-directional belt in a 40″ chamber, great for scaling up without breaking the bank.
2. Impingement Tech Meets Speed
Impingement ovens use focused hot air jets for fast, uniform cooking.
- The Middleby Marshall X55 X‑Series Conveyor Oven uses vertical airflow and lower temperatures to bake faster without burning any pies during peak loads.
- Looking for ventless convenience? Enter the Middleby Marshall PS638E‑V Electric Ventless Conveyor Oven, which bakes up to 30% faster than typical conveyors, with cleanable parts and “Cool Skin” safety design.
3. Countertop & Ventless Allies
Not every counter has a hood,especially in concession or prep line setups.
- The TurboChef HHC2020 Ventless Conveyor features both impingement and catalyst systems, packing high throughput into a compact, ventless footprint, perfect for tight kitchens.
4. Smart Prep & Organization
Rushing without prep is chaos. Northern Pizza Equipment offers solutions to help you prep with speed and structure.
- Invest in refrigerated prep tables (like Blue Air or LaRosa models mentioned on the site to keep ingredients cool and organized right at the pizza line.
- Tools like dough sheeters, dividers, and rounders help streamline dough prep, making busy shifts less stressful.
5. Maintenance Tools & Timers
Even during peak hours, don’t lose sight of equipment upkeep.
- A programmable digital timer nearby keeps bake times consistent and your team confident, especially handy once the oven starts firing continuous pizzas.
- Always follow the advice from the Top 5 Pizza Equipment Mistakes blog: avoid overloading machines during rush and train staff to catch little issues early
