GEA NexGen Dry Pasta Processing Lines
A new benchmark in performance, quality, availability and OEE.
GEA NexGen Pasta elevates efficiency consistency in short‑cut pasta production, delivering higher throughput, improved product stability and simplified day‑to‑day operability.
Key Features.
Higher capacity with shorter processing times.
Boost Performance.
- Up to +10% productivity thanks to direct discharge from the press to the pre dryer.
- Up to –20% total drying time enabled by an improved pre drying section and a completely renewed ventilation concept.
- More efficient airflow management ensures a stronger drying effect, better reliability and reduced wear on ventilation components.
Together, these innovations translate into higher throughput, a smaller dryer configuration and a shorter overall process cycle.
Stability and precision from the very first step.
Ensure Quality.
- Double vacuum seals on all shafts improve dough structure formation and ensure higher product stability.
- Continuous flour moisture measurement automatically adjusts hydration for optimal dough consistency and fewer deviations.
- AI based humidity control stabilizes the process after recipe or parameter changes, reducing waste and keeping product geometry within target standards.
- Vision based cutting and shape control monitors thickness, length and geometry to prevent defects before they occur.
Easier access, quicker maintenance and shorter installation.
Maximize Availability.
- Pre wired services and modular components reduce installation time and simplify line configuration.
- Fewer, larger, slower rotating fans lower maintenance requirements and extend component lifetime.
- Removable cladding panels and optimized access points offer full accessibility for cleaning and service tasks.
- Re engineered press layout, including external gearboxes and motors, cuts extraordinary maintenance time by up to 75% and speeds up routine procedures such as oil changes.
A Smarter Production Line.
Automation and data intelligence built in:
- Real time process data, continuous moisture sensing and NIR input feed the AI algorithms for stable operation.
- Smart control adjusts parameters autonomously to maintain the ideal humidity window.
- Integration with the GEA IIoT ecosystem enables remote diagnostics, predictive maintenance and advanced performance insights.
With NexGen, pasta producers gain a more predictable, more efficient and more digital ready operation.
A Modular Concept for Today and Tomorrow.
The first NexGen model delivers 4,200 kg/h capacity and is based on a modular architecture that simplifies scaling, upgrades and future integration.
Standardized components, harmonized ventilation modules and extruded longerons ensure faster installation, easier alignment and consistently high performance across the range.
Experience the Value of NexGen.
NexGen combines measurable performance improvements with cleaner design, reduced complexity and more robust quality control. Whether you aim to increase throughput, stabilize product quality or reduce operating costs, NexGen gives you a clear, data proven advantage in every area of OEE.

GEA reports profitable growth for 2025 and expects accelerated revenue growth
GEA’s past fiscal year was one of significant growth and further profitability gains. In particular, the technology group substantially increased order intake, with all divisions contributing here. GEA also made progress in all Mission 30 strategic growth areas. In addition, GEA met key interim targets under its climate plan ahead of schedule. Major milestones in fiscal year 2025 were admission to the DAX index, the award of one of the largest contracts in the company’s history, and streamlining of the corporate structure.
Как SmartParc переписывает правила производства продуктов питания
Благодаря новому производственному комплексу SmartParc предприятия пищевой промышленности в Великобритании сокращают эксплуатационные расходы и выбросы в атмосферу. Эта модель совместного производства, в основе которой лежит технология нагревания и охлаждения GEA, демонстрирует, как инновации ускоряют реализацию отраслевых амбиций по достижению нулевого уровня выбросов.
Игровая площадка для исследования продуктов питания
«Сварить яйца так же просто как и сварить пиво». Это такое сравнение, которое заставляет вас улыбнуться — и тут что-то щелкает в голове: что-то сложное вдруг становится простым. В этом фильме, действие которого происходит в сельскохозяйственной глубинке США, мы рассматриваем прецизионную ферментацию и реальную работу, необходимую для превращения идеи в продукты питания.
