Made in Greece - CE 2006/42 EC Machinery Directive
Our innovative Kataifi Master™ machine line is designed for the production and baking of kataifi. It operates by maintaining a continuous flow of kataifi dough through a metal conveyor within a baking tunnel. This tunnel is heated to 180°C using 16 burners that run on either natural gas or LPG. The kataifi requires a baking time of approximately 4-8 seconds within the tunnel. After exiting, the product is gathered and packaged.
The production capacity ranges from 200 kg/h to 500 kg/h, varying according to the moisture content of the final product and the fuel’s calorific value.

Notes:
Our Kataifi Machine is the only machine in the market which adjusts DIGITALLY the exact weight of the final product (for example you can choose from the digital control panel your desired product choice of 450 g/per pack )
You can also digitally control the width and length of the final product for packaging purposes. Product thickness is regulated with the pressure of the nozzles. It is digitally controlled in order to stabilise the flow of the dough. (The diameter of the nozzles is configurable).
By controlling / changing speed and pressure together, the flow of the dough is accurately regulated.
Regarding temperature adjustment: the thickness of the metallic belt is only 1,2 mm and compared to the 5-6 mm of the old circular machine, the time balance has greater efficiency. If we have smaller nozzles and high temperatures, we increase the pressure at the nozzles together with speed in order to reduce the baking time, to avoid making the product fragile.
When we have low temperatures, we reduce the pressure at the nozzles as well as the belt speed, to increase the length of baking, in order not to flatten the product. The baked dough separates from the hot surface by itself since it reaches the peak time of baking.

- After thoroughly examining that all three mixers are clean from dough remnants, wash them out with water and leave open the cap located at the bottom of mixer A.
- Drain mixer A from water and close the cap. Proceed in measuring the quantity of water to be used according to the selected recipe (e.g., 275 kilos of water at the required temperature of 8-14 Celsius).
- Start mixer A at the rotational speed of 30 rpm (rounds/minute). Gradually add 100 kilos of flour into the mixer over the time span of 10 minutes.
- Increase the rotational speed of mixer A to 40 rpm. Afterwards, add the recipe’s additional dry ingredients (e.g., salt, potassium sorbate, amyl). Next, gradually add 100 kilos of flour over the time span of 12 minutes.
- Increase the rotational speed of the mixer to 60 rpm and gradually place 50 kilos of flour within the time span of 5 minutes. Subsequently, add the fatty oils of the recipe to mixer A (e.g., soya lecithin, sunflower oil).
- Amplify the rotational speed of mixer A to 75 rpm. Next, add 5 kilos of water and leave the mixer in operation for 13 minutes. Gradually reduce mixer A’s rotational speed to 0 rpm while simultaneously bringing the churn dasher to a horizontal position. Make sure mixer A is completely turned off. Take the cleaning stick and scrape clean the mixer’s interior, as well as the churn dasher. Use the remainder of the water mentioned in the selected recipe to wash away remnants along the mixer walls.
- Consecutively, turn on mixer A and gradually increase the rotational speed to 85 rpm, and allow the mixer to operate for an hour and thirty minutes. Fifty minutes after mixer A has been in operation, repeat the above-mentioned procedure (steps 1-7) for mixer B. Similarly, fifty minutes after mixer B has been in operation repeat steps 1-7 for mixer C.
Note: Immediately after completing steps 1-7 for the respective mixers, thoroughly clean each mixer and its compartments to ensure the continual operation of the machine.
- Reduce the rotational speed of mixer A at 40 rpm and leave it in operation for 75 minutes.
- Once 75 minutes have passed, turn off the mixer. After pausing the mixer for 15 minutes the dough-batter is ready to be filtered into a smaller container and drained through the dough-batter separator. The aforementioned procedure describes the kneading process. It is imperative to note that the time of kneading and quantity of water utilised depend on the quality of the flour employed in each use.
