3 The Ultimate Pasta Press The press of the Pastaio (master pasta maker), designed for endurance and ease of operation. DEMACO machines are built to a standard and not to a cost target that is why it is not unusual to see DEMACO presses in operation for over 50 trouble free years. The production of perfect pasta requires a press that provides optimized processing at each stage of production. The DEMACO press is designed to consistently produce excellent Pasta every production run. Pasta so good it satisfies the world s most demanding producers of artisan pasta. The DEMACO press is a unique combination of optimized pasta processing and extreme duty construction built to deliver exceptional reliability over a very long operational life. DEMACO is the world leader in highly sanitary USDA type pasta presses with over 12x the installed customer base of all competitors combined. Control over every key element in the creation of the pasta provides manufacturers with a final product of extremely consistent shape, color and texture. Our design enables the production of a very precise, consistent and homogenous dough mix followed by slow cool extrusion and even extrusion rates. Demaco Simplicity The Ultimate Pasta Press 3
