Pizza Dough Hot Press, Ø45 cm, 6.1 kW

The Pizza Group PF45 is an Italian-made electromechanical hot press for high-volume pizza production, pressing dough bases from 33 to 45 cm in diameter at a rate of approximately 250 bases per hour. Drawing 6.1 kW on a three-phase 400 V supply, its heated aluminium plates — treated with a non-stick surface to prevent dough adhesion — work at temperatures between 130 °C and 170 °C, shaping dough portions of 250–500 g in a press cycle as short as 0.1 seconds.

Consistent base thickness is dialled in by adjusting the lower plate via a handle and ring nut, while a cam-driven ratiomotor and stop timer handle the press cycle automatically. The safety grid interlock ensures the start button is live only when the guard is closed, making it a practical fit for busy production environments. The AISI 304 stainless steel frame is built for continuous daily use in pizzerias, hotel kitchens and catering operations turning out large quantities of uniform bases.
