GEA MULTIDRIVE® techology: an evolutionary step forward in the manufacture of long pasta that ensures superior quality while keeping an eye on the environment through efficient energy management.
These results are achieved through a number of innovative features allowing improved accuracy on working parameters all over the line, offering best performances in the pre-drying and drying process. The so obtained product is excellent in stability, structural strength and cooking quality.
Continuous innovation is a business driver for many companies; however, only an effective adoption of thorough procedures can turn it into a success factor, thus allowing targets achievement and actual advantage against competitors. This vision brought us to develop cutting-edge technologies that are and will always be GEA trademark.
TAS-MULTIDRIVE
MULTIDRIVE® technology is based on a continuous control of thermo hygrometric conditions, by the application of very high gradients of temperature increase and decrease rates, an optimized exhaust air extraction and a Multiple Pulse Ventilation system. The result is an evolution of the well-known GEA Thermo Active System technology (TAS).

Key Features
- Optimized exhaust air extraction and injection
- Accurate control of the temperature and humidity also in the initial stages
- Reduced energy consumption: High-efficiency process: global energy saving up to 30%
- Improved product quality
- Reduced length of the line (-25%)
- Easy access to the dryer
Throughput
- Mono tier: from 1 to 2,5 tons/hour
- 3 tiers: from 1,5 to 6 tons/hour

GEA Insights

Innovating for impact: shaping better solutions for customers
Industrial production is being asked to use fewer resources, become smarter and keep equipment productive for longer. At GEA, that is changing how innovation happens: engineering, customer insight, digital expertise and service come together earlier – when a solution can still be shaped at its core.
