Abstract: An apparatus for scaling dough and method of using the same includes a pair of infeed rollers that provide dough to pair of positive pressure rollers that rotate faster that the rate dough is received. A bed defines a ram chamber with an inlet and an outlet. The bed is adjacent to the pair of positive pressure rollers. Dough is received in the ram chamber through the inlet. A ram disposed in the ram chamber reciprocates therein to compress dough. A rotatable head with a scaling chamber is adjacent the outlet of the ram chamber. The rotation of the head and the reciprocation of the ram are synchronized so that a downward stroke of the ram compress dough received in the ram chamber into the scaling chamber.
