Line that allows the product to stay inside the nests from the beginning to the end of the process. This ensures reduction of scrapes and damages to the product.
The “Nidomatic” solution employs a different method for conveying the nests during the drying stage. Following extrusion, pasta is placed into cups where it remains until the end of the process. This system reduces scraps to zero and facilitates packaging in trays.
In the mixing tank the slowly rotating paddles mix the ingredients until optimal hydration is achieved, allowing the gluten matrix to form.
Laminating roller unit positioned under the extrusion head; removable for the production of directly extruded products. Nest making device with 12 or 24 tubes installed directly under the press die. With conveyor tubes in transparent alimentary material for checking the length of the pasta strips.
Situated under the nest-forming machine, this device checks the weight of the nests.
Stainless-steel structure with ventilation units specifically designed to keep the nests in their ideal shape. Equipped with independent controls to automatically regulate temperature and humidity.
Divided into three independent sections: the pre-drying stage continues in the first zone, in the second area the main drying process takes place and the third section is used for stabilization.
The nests are unloaded in groups of 4, 6 or 8 units for arranged packaging in trays or heat-sealed film. After unloading the empty cups are returned to the nest forming machine to repeat the cycle.
What if your favorite chocolate didn’t require cocoa beans and your coffee was locally produced? As climate disruption, price hikes and ethical concerns hit two of our most beloved indulgences, scientists are reimagining how we produce them – using microbes, not monocultures. The goal: preserve the flavor and properties of coffee and chocolate while minimizing carbon emissions and improving food resilience.
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
The 2022 CO2 shortage forced breweries to review their dependency on global supply chains. Many were forced to close, unable to carbonate their products. At its breweries in Germany, OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE is turning its own CO2 into a powerful lever for independence and sustainability – with the help of CO2 recovery technology from GEA.
