FIMAR Pasta Machine 4N for Fresh Pasta Production

A pasta machine designed for continuous production of fresh pasta shapes in professional kitchens. The unit mixes dough and extrudes it through interchangeable dies, forming strands, ribbons or shapes without manual rolling. The process relies on a motor-driven auger that kneads the dough under pressure, forcing it through the die to create consistent texture and thickness. This method eliminates the need for repeated rolling and cutting by hand, allowing large batches to be produced quickly while maintaining uniform quality across every portion.

Operation begins by loading the hopper with prepared dough. The operator selects the desired die for the pasta shape, then starts the motor. The auger draws the dough from the hopper, kneads it and pushes it through the die, where a rotating blade cuts the pasta to length. The height-adjustable discharge chute directs the pasta onto a tray or work surface. Throughout the cycle, the operator monitors the flow and adjusts the feed rate if necessary to prevent blockages or uneven extrusion.

The machine is built with a stainless steel body and hopper in AISI 304 grade, chosen for corrosion resistance and hygiene in food-contact areas. The height of the discharge chute can be set between 450 mm and 640 mm to suit different tray sizes or worktop heights. Controls consist of a main on-off switch and a motor start button, with no additional programming required.

The 0.75 kW motor operates on a three-phase supply of 230-400 V, 50 Hz, allowing it to run on standard industrial circuits found in commercial kitchens. The 42 kg weight provides stability during operation while still permitting movement by two people or a trolley. The footprint of 350 mm depth and 760 mm width fits within a typical worktop run or can be placed on a mobile stand.

Cleaning involves removing the die and auger for washing, then wiping down the hopper and body with a damp cloth. The stainless steel surfaces resist staining and can be sanitised with food-safe detergents. No lubrication is required for the auger or motor bearings, reducing maintenance to routine inspection and cleaning after each use.
