Description
A Fully Automatic Pasta Making Machine is an industrial-grade equipment used to manufacture pasta on a commercial scale. Unlike semi-automatic or manual machines, these machines perform every step automatically – mixing, kneading, extruding, cutting, drying (if included), and packaging (if part of the line).
Fully automatic pasta machines are designed for food manufacturing companies, restaurants with bulk production needs, cloud kitchens, and pasta production plants. They are capable of producing various pasta shapes such as penne, fusilli, spaghetti, macaroni, farfalle (bow-tie), and shells.
2. Working Principle of a Fully Automatic Pasta Making Machine
The process of pasta production in a fully automatic machine typically involves the following steps:
Flour Feeding & Mixing – High-quality wheat flour, semolina, or other desired ingredients are fed into the hopper. The machine mixes the flour with water (and other ingredients like eggs if required) to form a dough.
Kneading – The machine kneads the dough to the perfect consistency, ensuring proper gluten development and elasticity.
Extrusion & Shaping – The dough is forced through interchangeable dies or molds that determine the shape of the pasta.
Cutting & Portioning – The extruded pasta is cut into uniform lengths by a rotating blade system.
Pre-Drying / Drying (Optional) – Some models include drying tunnels or systems to remove excess moisture from pasta, improving shelf life.
Collection / Packaging – The finished pasta is collected and can be packed manually or using an automated packing system.
This entire process is controlled via a PLC-based control panel or touchscreen interface, allowing operators to set production parameters, monitor operations, and ensure consistent output.
