PCT No. PCT/CH92/00154 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 20, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 20, 1993 PCT Filed Jul. 27, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/02561 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 18, 1993.In a process and apparatus for pressing and drying long pasta, an alternative to hanging is provided wherein the dough strands are first introduced into a drying climate immediately after the goods are discharged from the die. The dough strands are guided directly into the drying means from the extrusion die as long "strings" in a continuous manner and are then cut to packaging length. It is possible for only the initial drying to be operated in this way, particularly to heat up the goods and, e.g., hang them on rods while hot, and then to carry out the final drying in a manner known per se, e.g. by portions. The goods can be dried intensively at previously unaccustomed temperatures of 90 DEG C. to 120 DEG C., particularly during final drying, to a moisture content of 15% to less than 13%. Further, it is preferably suggested to arrange a transverse cutting device for the dough strands directly at the die and a length cutting device for the packaging length subsequent to the drying or after a pre-drying, which allows a particularly great flexibility of the installation for the production of different products, including the shortest types of goods. |
