Instant Pasta Line

AXOR technology combines the tradition of pasta to a new method for preparing it in a natural and healthy way. Thanks to a low speed extrusion, a cooking system with extremely controlled steam pression and a homogeneous drying, it is possible to obtain a product which does not need to be cooked but only needs a simply rehydration for approximately 2-3 minutes. Instant pasta can be combined with different types of sauces and toppings. A good and healthy alternative to the Asiatic noodles that are filled with fat excess, high salt content and artificial flavour.

Press

Pasta production process starts here: in the vacuum mixing tank, raw materials and water are dosed, to obtain the dough. Then, thanks to the mechanical action of the high efficiency compression screws, the dough reaches the perfect compactness necessary for pasta to keep its shape at the exit of the die head. Of course, the press is fitted with Total Vacuum System Technology.

The cutting unit is a completely independent unit, fixed at the press legs. It is suitable for cutting any pasta shape and also to fit the “penne” cutter device.

Shaker and Bucket Elevator

Pasta drying process starts here. The shaker is fitted with a new motion device (patented), which allows a significant energy saving. In the shaker, the surface of the pasta is dried very quickly by hot air, to prevent sticking in next steps of the pasta production process.

Instant Pasta Steam Cooker

This piece of equipment is provided with a new low-pressure steam spreading system, to ensure a uniform and deep cooking of instant pasta. The conveyor belt of the steam cooker is manufactured in self-cleaning PIK, perfect for high temperature.

E.N.A. Dryer

The complete pasta drying process occurs in two zones of the E.N.A. dryer: the pre-dryer and main dryer, each having separated thermohygroregulation control units. A pre-drying phase of approximately 40 minutes, followed by a drying phase of approximately 2 hours, to end with a stabilization phase of approximately 30 minutes, allows a high-quality production using any kind of raw materials. The E.N.A. dryer is fitted with high density fiberglass panels, internally lined with stainless steel sheets and silicone rubber gaskets.
