Convection and bakery oven accessory Novameta OG6-SRA-76/71/68

A stand built to hold six full-size gastronorm trays beneath a convection oven, keeping hot food within arm's reach while the next batch cooks above.

Convection ovens move heated air with a fan, spreading an even temperature across every tray. When the oven sits directly on a worktop, the trays underneath must be lifted and carried, breaking the flow of service. This stand creates a fixed tier of storage at the same height as the oven's base, so trays slide straight from the oven's rails onto the stand's rails without being lifted. The operator can then pull a fresh tray from the stand and load it into the oven in one motion, cutting the time between batches.

To use the stand, the operator first levels it with the adjustable feet. Each foot can be raised or lowered to match the height of the oven above and to keep the rails perfectly horizontal. Once levelled, the six GN1/1 trays are placed on the guide rails. The anti-slide pins at the front of each rail prevent the trays from moving forward when the oven door is opened. When the oven is ready for the next tray, the operator simply slides the tray from the stand into the oven, then replaces it with the tray just removed.

The frame is welded from stainless steel tubes in two sizes: 40×40 mm for the legs and 40×20 mm plus 25×25 mm for the horizontal rails. The welding is hygienic, meaning the joints are smooth and free of crevices where food debris could collect. The legs end in heavy-duty adjustable feet that can be fine-tuned to compensate for uneven floors. Two removable shelves sit between the legs, providing extra space for trays or utensils when needed.

The dimensions of 760 mm wide, 710 mm deep and 680 mm high are chosen to match the footprint of a standard convection oven, so the stand fits neatly beneath it without overhang. The weight of the stand itself is kept low enough to be moved by two people, yet the welded frame is rigid enough to support the full load of six loaded trays without sagging.

Cleaning is straightforward: the trays are removed, and the smooth stainless steel surfaces are wiped down with a cloth and sanitiser. The removable shelves can be taken out for separate cleaning, and the adjustable feet can be unscrewed for thorough scrubbing if needed. The hygienic welding ensures there are no hidden corners where dirt can accumulate.

The stand is supplied with two removable shelves as standard. The adjustable feet allow for a total height variation of 65 mm, giving flexibility to match different oven heights and floor levels.
