Long-cut pasta production line

Optimize your long-cut pasta production with a single-tier system designed for precise moisture control and consistent quality from extrusion to cooling.

Processes Long-Cut Pasta from Extrusion to Cooling

The Long-cut Pasta Single-Tier Production Line offers a complete solution for pasta producers, incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as TAS and Vacuum technology to streamline the drying and cooling processes. The production line starts with extrusion, followed by pre-drying to eliminate excess moisture, and then transitions to an accelerated drying stage in the TAS HP dryer, ensuring precise temperature and humidity control. This system consistently delivers high-quality spaghetti, fettuccine, and more, by maintaining ideal gluten elasticity through low-temperature vacuum processing and gentle mixing. The stainless-steel dosage and press system, along with integrated spreaders, optimize the mixing and spreading operations while minimizing waste. With a design focused on continuous single-tier operation, this line allows for high-capacity throughput and smooth integration into existing production facilities. Enhanced by a user-friendly PLC interface, maintenance access from both sides, and the inclusion of a stripper saw for precise length cutting, the equipment ensures efficient and reliable long-cut pasta production.

Benefits

  • Enhances pasta quality by maintaining optimal gluten elasticity through gentle, low-temperature processing.
  • Maximizes production efficiency with precise temperature and humidity control, reducing downtime.
  • Increases yield with a system that recycles scraps back into the mixing process.
  • Reduces manual labor through easy maintenance access and integrated waste management.
  • Supports high-capacity operation with continuous single-tier processing and rapid throughput.
