The POPPING MACHINE RP-EVO is the latest-generation press designed by Re Pietro Srl for the production of both cereal cakes and no-fried popped snacks and popped chips. In line with the global shift towards healthier alternatives, these products are seeing a continuous rise in demand.
Re Pietro Srl, with its commitment to innovation, is setting new industry standards for popped chips production, offering a cutting-edge solution that simplifies and revolutionizes the manufacturing process.
With the POPPING MACHINE RP-EVO, once the mold is chosen and installed, you can effortlessly transform cereals or micro-pellets into delicious, fragrant cakes or crispy popped snacks and popped chips. Its versatility and efficiency allow for two different products to be made with a single machine.
These products are increasingly popular, not only as healthier alternatives to traditional bread but also as a quick snack – with or without protein content- or even as decorative elements for dishes and desserts.
Thanks to the POPPING MACHINE RP-EVO, you can preserve the taste and freshness of the raw materials— whether rice, legumes, corn, cereal mixes, or micro-pellets—ensuring your customers receive a healthy, flavorful product with an array of shapes and flavors. When it comes to mold options, the possibilities are vast.
The press can create large and small round shapes, ridged rounds, triangles, squares, hexagons, and rectangles, just to name a few. Custom molds can also be created based on specific customer requests.
Focus on the Popping Machine RP-EVO
The machine features a robust nickelcoated steel structure, food-grade certified materials, and a stainless-steel electric panel. Its touch screen control panel, which swivels and rotates to eye-level, makes the operation user-friendly.
Equipped with a hydraulic system, the POPPING MACHINE RP-EVO generates the high pressure necessary for the expansion of cereals or micro-pellets, turning them into crispy popped snacks and popped chips or fragrant puffed cakes. The volumetric dosing is managed by a pneumatically operated feeding plate, ensuring precision.
Innovative technology for the bakery and snack industry
The molds used to shape the puffed cakes, popped snacks and popped chips are made from hardened steel, coated with titanium nitride to guarantee durability and prevent sticking. These molds, along with all parts in direct contact with the product, comply with MOCA (Materials and Articles in Contact with Food) regulations under EU Regulation No. 1935/2004, ensuring food safety standards are met.
Both the upper and lower molds are heated with separate cartridge heaters, which are controlled by thermoregulators for optimal temperature management. Each machine is equipped with its own PLC (Siemens S7-1200) and a 7” control panel.
The HMI (Human Machine Interface) allows for easy adjustment of production phases, recipe storage, and troubleshooting through its advanced diagnostic system.
