IMA Corazza PDP24 – High-Speed Press for Bouillon Cubes
The PDP24 is the latest in a long line of IMA Corazza solutions for the food industry. Like any cube, there are six sides to the story and the PDP24 boasts as many reasons for making it the number one choice. Equipped with just 24 punches, the PDP24 processes up to 4000 ppm, ensuring consistent quality and cube weight thanks to separate pre- and final compression stations. With a minimal footprint, it also guarantees excellent hygiene standards, keeping the production area segregated from the mechanical housing. Through a more efficient design, maintenance costs and requirements are much lower and punches and dies can be easily replaced. Able to adapt reliably to different powder types, the press allows for fast format changeovers between 4 and 13 grams as well as non-standard sizes.
