Why Choose the XLT 4455 Conveyor Oven for Your Pizzeria?

By XLTip

The XLT 4455: A Smart Solution for High-Volume Pizzerias

If you’re planning to open a new pizzeria or upgrade your existing kitchen equipment, finding the right oven is key to your success.  For businesses with limited space but high demand for bake capacity, the XLT 4455 conveyor oven is the perfect solution.  Designed to maximize efficiency and output, this conveyorized impingement oven can handle large volumes with ease, making it an excellent choice for pizzerias of all sizes.

Imagine you’re opening a new pizzeria and considering a triple-stack XLT 3255 oven.  While it offers impressive performance, you realize you need more baking capacity than the triple-stack 3255 can provide.  However, your space is limited to a maximum 55-inch bake chamber length.  Fortunately, the XLT 4455 provides the perfect alternative by utilizing additional depth to deliver superior capacity.

Capacity Comparison: 4455 vs. 3255

Let’s break down the numbers for baking 16-inch pizzas at a cooking time of 4:30 minutes:

  • 32-inch wide conveyor belt: Bakes 92 pizzas per hour per oven.
  • 38-inch wide conveyor belt: Bakes 95 pizzas per hour per oven.
  • 44-inch wide conveyor belt: Bakes 138 pizzas per hour per oven.

This means:

A triple-stack XLT 3255 conveyor pizza oven bakes 276 pizzas per hour.
A double-stack XLT 4455 conveyor oven matches that at 276 pizzas per hour.

AND a triple-stack 4455 oven takes it even further, allowing you to bake up to 414 pizzas per hour!

With the XLT 4455, you can use fewer ovens during slower times, saving energy and costs, while having the flexibility to handle peak times—such as Friday evenings, Saturday rushes, or large catering events—when demand surges.

Why the XLT 4455 is a Game-Changer

Here’s why the XLT 4455 conveyorized impingement oven is the right choice for pizzerias:

  • Optimized for Space: If you’re limited to a 55-inch bake chamber length but have more room in depth, the 4455 leverages this layout to provide greater capacity without compromising your kitchen space.
  • Increased Output: The wider 44-inch belt enables higher productivity, helping you meet customer demand more effectively during peak times.
  • Versatility: Whether it’s weekday operations with lower volume or weekend rushes with maximum orders, the 4455 oven gives you the flexibility to scale your output as needed.
  • Efficiency and Consistency: Like all XLT Ovens, the 4455 ensures consistent baking results, thanks to its advanced impingement oven technology.  Each pizza is evenly cooked, delivering the perfect crust every time.

Is the XLT 4455 Right for You?

If your pizzeria needs the flexibility to handle fluctuating demands while maximizing kitchen space, the XLT 4455 conveyor pizza oven is the ideal choice.  With its ability to produce more pizzas per hour, reduce labor intensity, and adapt to peak demand, it’s a smart investment for any new or growing pizzeria.

For more information about the XLT 4455 and how it can transform your kitchen, contact XLT today or call (316) 943-2751.  Experience the benefits of conveyor ovens that deliver exceptional performance, efficiency, and quality.
