Combination cooker-cooler for pasta production
In the production of pasta, maintaining uniformity and preventing sticking during cooking and cooling is a critical challenge. Traditional methods require multiple machines and extensive conveyor systems, increasing floor space and maintenance needs.
Cook and cool pasta in one operation
The Lyco Manufacturing Combination Cooker-Cooler is a revolutionary system designed to cook and cool pasta in a single rotary drum. This system significantly reduces the equipment footprint by integrating cooking and cooling zones, thereby eliminating the need for transfer conveyors and riser frames. Featuring a unique gentle agitation process, it prevents pasta from sticking and ensures uniform cooking results. The integrated CIP (Clean-In-Place) system cleans both hot and cold zones, streamlining maintenance procedures. With its trunnion design that eliminates cylinder shaft breakage and precision manufacturing for fewer moving parts, it offers lower maintenance costs.
