OUR
PLANTS
The systems that we make are comprised of one or two
cooking pots, an injection pump and one or two packaging
machines.
Our systems have been studied and set up with our twenty-year
experience to obtain the most natural method of working
and to maintain the traditional Italian taste.
The quality is guaranteed by automated lines using advanced
technology capable of large production.
The corn-meal is cooked in double-bottomed steaming
pans made of stainless steel so as not to change the
natural flavour of the corn.
The production cycle begins with the loading of water
into the pans, after which the flour and salt are added.
When the corn-meal is cooked it is extracted by the
pump which at the same time injects the corn-meal into
tubular film which has been curled onto the tube before-hand.
The packaging machine hermetically seals the air tight
packs at a temperature of around 95°C.
With this procedure the product never comes into contact
with atmospheric elements or factory workers, enhancing
the natural flavour and the durability without the addition
of preservatives.
The packets of corn-meal fresh from the packaging machine
must be placed in moulds in such a way that, when they
cool down, they take on the form required.
After a few hours of cooling the packets are ready to
be removed from the moulds and boxed.
The BASIC SYSTEM
can produce up to 450 kg/h of corn-meal. The system
comprises a double-bottomed steam cooker, an injection
pump and a packaging machine.
The MEDIUM
SYSTEM
can produce up to 750 kg/h of corn-meal.
It has an extra double-bottomed pan with respect to
the basic version.
This works by steam. It needs a greater number of moulds,
of mould transport trolleys and also a wider platform.
The PRO SYSTEM
can produce up to 1300 kg/h of corn-meal. This system
has an extra thermic store with respect to the medium
version.
This enables the pans to unload the freshly cooked corn-meal
immediately into the store using a high speed pump.
In this way a new load can be cooked straight away.
With the medium system, however, the pans empty little
by little as the corn-meal is packaged. The pro system
also needs, as well as a thermic store, an outflow pump,
two injection pumps, two packaging machines and a greater
number of moulds and mould transport trolleys.
The PRO AUTOMATIC SYSTEM
has the same machinery as the pro system but is worked
electronically.
The valves are pneumatically controlled and regulate
the amounts of water and flour.
The cooking times and the mixing speeds can be varied
by a touch screen found on the machine.
The display also shows all the working phases and eventual
malfunctions of the equipment.
All the parts can, however, be worked by hand.
