Pasta CUOMO - Hydraulic press for long pastes right side picture framing;

The two-jig hydraulic press had a capacity of about 60 kg and an internal diameter of 320mm and had a vertical motion always powered by belts and wheels. It featured a steam jacket in the lower part equipped with a relative pump with two vertical reduction bodies as well as a coil with automatic hydraulic discharge, consisting of bronze plates under the piston head and a bronze jacket inside the cylinder. It was called hydraulic because it exploited the flow of hydraulic oil, to develop the compression force by letting the dough come out of the bronze die, through two pistons that moved from top to bottom powered by belts and the steam engine. The pasta thus produced was extruded from the inserts, which still today are the ones that give shape to the pasta.
