Our Equipment

Emiliomiti & Arcobaleno Pasta Machines

The professional Italian extruders behind every case of Forchetta fresh pasta — and why we chose them.

Why Machines Matter for Fresh Pasta

Great fresh pasta starts with dough, but texture and consistency come from the equipment. We produce on professional extruders from Emiliomiti and Arcobaleno, two names chefs and pasta producers trust.

Paired with bronze dies, these machines let us make restaurant-quality pasta at wholesale volume without losing the texture that makes fresh pasta worth it.

Emiliomiti

P150 Pasta Extruder

Emiliomiti builds professional pasta equipment in Italy. Our P150 extruder mixes and presses dough through bronze dies for the long and short shapes on our menu, running steadily through full production days.

Arcobaleno

Arcobaleno Extruders

Arcobaleno makes Italian-designed pasta extruders and sheeters for professional kitchens and producers. Their equipment gives us flexibility for specialty doughs, smaller runs and custom shapes.

Why They’re the Best Machines for the Job

Italian engineering

Both builders come from Italy’s pasta-machine tradition, designing equipment for professional pasta shops and producers.

Bronze-die extrusion

Each extruder runs bronze dies, giving every shape the rough, porous surface that grips sauce.

Consistency at scale

Steady mixing and extrusion pressure mean the same bite and cook time case after case, delivery after delivery.

Stainless, food-safe build

Stainless steel construction is built for daily production and thorough cleaning between runs.

Shape flexibility

Swapping dies lets us run long, short, specialty and custom shapes on the same line.

Fresh, not dried

Professional fresh-pasta equipment lets us extrude, cut and pack fresh for kitchens — machine-made, never handmade.

The Pasta Extruders Behind Forchetta Fresh Pasta

Forchetta’s Emiliomiti P150 and Arcobaleno extruders mix the dough and press it through bronze dies, giving consistent texture and cook time from case to case. Swapping dies lets the same machines produce long cuts, short cuts, and custom shapes.
