"To handle our heightened volume needs of cooked gluten-free pasta, we added another line, and this time opted for a cooker and cooler with a very complete CIP capability.

We are finding it increasingly difficult to procure qualified machine operators. Designing systems that are more intuitive to operate makes a significant impact on improving our machine and line uptime, product quality and overall plant performance. Clean-Flow is such an intuitive system.

A critical reason why we decided to go with Clean-Flow was because of the reduced time to clean the system. The Clean-Flow line for cooked gluten-free pasta is our biggest process line, and yet now it is the easiest to clean. We run the line two shifts daily, five days per week. The CIP, from start to finish, including filling and heating the water, is about 40 minutes. What we save in cleaning time and labor is just amazing."
