steel construction and dual push button start make it the fastest and
easiest semiautomatic press in the industry. The dough press is an easy,
affordable way to improve your production time, as well as your finished
product. The D-TXA-2-18 is a swing away design with upper and lower heated
platens.
Dual Heated Platen
Pizza/Tortilla Dough:
Speeds up production (faster pressing times)
Enables pressing thinner products
Aids dough flow
Allows dough to be pressed straight from refrigeration unit
Helps keep dough from shrinking back
Pizza Dough:
Enables pressing thinner products
Aids in pressing sticky dough
Helps activate yeast for faster proofing if desired
Enables par baking pizza crust
Tortilla Dough: Initial grill off for tortillas
Labor & Production
Presses require no skilled labor unlike hand tossing
Presses are safe and have no age requirements unlike sheeters/rollers
18” platen allows for making variable crust sizes and thickness up to 18
inches – the size of the crust is determined by the weight of the dough
ball and the thickness setting.
Depends on the desired size of the crust…9” to 18” = 75-100/hr, 7” to 9”
= 150-200/hr, 6” or under = 300-400/hr
Pressed dough keeps air in the crust vs. sheeted dough where the air is
forced out of the crust. Pressed dough is consistent in thickness and
size vs. hand tossed where the thickness and size can be inconsistent
Makes it possible to achieve desired thickness and ensures consistent
thickness at the same dough ball weight
