Commercial pasta press for diverse ingredients
Producing high-quality pasta often requires specialized equipment that can handle a variety of raw materials while adhering to stringent hygiene standards. This is particularly important for manufacturers looking to offer both traditional and gluten-free pasta options with minimal waste and downtime.
Handles diverse pasta ingredients efficiently
The Polymatik pasta press from Bühler is designed for flexibility, processing various raw materials from durum and common wheat to gluten-free grains such as corn, rice, pulses, and quinoa. Its distinct co-rotating twin-screw mixer-kneader forms homogeneous dough in roughly 20 seconds, minimizing air exposure and oxidation. The system’s ‘first-in, first-out’ operation reduces downtime and waste. Steam and hot water injections further aid in the gluten-free pasta production by facilitating starch gelatinization. The self-cleaning design ensures top hygiene and eases maintenance tasks. With a focus on efficiency and flexibility, this equipment is ideal for both small and large-scale pasta manufacturers.
