Dual Heating for Shape Retention
Both the upper and lower plates contain heating elements that reach temperatures up to 230°C (446°F). Applying heat from both sides relaxes the gluten structure immediately upon contact. This process prevents the dough from shrinking back, ensuring the product retains its size and shape after pressing. The dual-heat function also lightly par-bakes the dough, reducing final cooking time on the griddle or in the oven.
Precision Thickness Adjustment
A calibrated mechanism allows operators to set the gap between plates from 1 mm to 11 mm. This range accommodates various menu items. Chefs can produce paper-thin tortillas or thicker bases for pita bread and pizza crusts using the same machine. The system locks the selected thickness, delivering uniform results for every batch, regardless of which staff member operates the press.
Large Format Non-Stick Plates
The 400×502 mm (16×20 inch) rectangular plates accommodate large dough balls suitable for extra-large burritos or family-sized pizzas. The surface features a non-stick coating that releases dough without tearing or sticking. This coating reduces the need for excess flour or oil during pressing, keeping the workspace clean and lowering ingredient waste. Staff can wipe the plates down quickly between shifts.
Safe and Efficient Manual Operation
The clamshell design opens to a 58-degree angle, providing ample clearance for hands when placing dough balls or removing pressed bases. This wide opening reduces the risk of accidental burns from the heated plates. The manual lever mechanism multiplies force, allowing operators to flatten dense dough with minimal physical exertion, reducing fatigue during long production hours.
