"G. Mondini pizza assembly lines feature the highest cycle speeds in the industry - up to 7,200 pizzas per hour." (https://www.refrigeratedfrozenfood.com/articles/83570-pizza-...)

Judging from https://youtu.be/Do7qLGiVbwY?t=164, the advantage is that they have 3 pizzas in each row rather than just one, and that the pizzas move much faster along the conveyor. It's also not clear from the article but the Seattle system might only support 1 pizza in the system at a time.

The dough is still hand-made, which is an advantage over frozen pizza dough which pretty much sucks, so I'd guess they're primarily interested in selling to delivery pizza chains as a more upscale pizza. Domino's peak is 160 pizzas/hour and they open stores until the average is <100. (https://www.quora.com/How-many-pizzas-does-a-Manhattan-pizze...)

I was confused about this too. I think the win here is that the machine is small enough to actually fit in a fast-food restaurant. Plus, they're planning to branch out from pizza.

I assume such factories employ machinery that isn't suitable for use elsewhere. Additionally, it seems unlikely that such machinery would have been designed to produce individual customized pizzas on an as-needed basis, whereas this seems built specifically to address both of those points.

I'm no pizza connoisseur, but the pizzas in that video don't look particularly appetizing.
