Extruder producing short-cut pasta, sheet pasta and lasagna.
The GE receives the mixture from the previous machine or from a batch mixer.
When combined with a batch mixing system, mixture is automatically overturned onto the screw conveying tank.
The extrusion screw works at low speed (25 rpm) guaranteeing a gentle processing of the product and consequently a higher quality of pasta. Pasta shapes can be quickly changed thanks to automatic change of die. The curved shape of the mixing tank is designed to reduce product stagnation and facilitate overall maintenance.
Machine performance

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.
