The Wachtel Piccolo I-4 is a deck oven — sometimes referred to as a rack oven or chamber oven — a type of bakery equipment used for baking bread, rolls, pastries, and other baked goods in a controlled, even-heat environment. Wachtel is a well-established German manufacturer of professional baking equipment, known for producing deck ovens, roll-in ovens, and related systems for craft bakeries and industrial baking operations.
This oven is configured with eight decks, each accommodating either two standard 60 × 40 cm trays or a single larger 60 × 80 cm tray, giving a total of up to sixteen standard baking trays in simultaneous use. That capacity makes it well suited to medium-volume production environments where variety and flexibility across different tray sizes are important. The oven features independently adjustable top and bottom heat, allowing the baker to fine-tune baking conditions per deck or product type — a standard and valued feature in professional deck oven operation. A steam extraction hood with fan is included, which assists in managing humidity and steam levels within the baking chamber during and after the baking cycle.
Control is handled by the DMS 3 Master Timer system, a programmable timer-based control unit that allows operators to set and manage baking sequences with precision. The oven runs on a three-phase electrical supply rated at 400 V AC, 3Ph, N, PE, 50 Hz, consistent with standard European industrial power infrastructure.
The machine dates from 2004 and is offered in used condition from Germany. The seller notes that the main control board requires replacement, which should be factored into any assessment of readiness for operation and overall acquisition cost.
