📌 Introduction
The Lamian Noodles Processing Production Line is an advanced automation solution designed to replicate the traditional hand-pulled noodle process at scale. Using servo-controlled stretching, compound rolling, aging, and precise cutting systems, this line preserves the signature chewy, elastic texture of hand-pulled noodles while maximizing productivity, consistency, and hygiene in modern production settings.
This solution is tailored for noodle manufacturers, central kitchens, frozen food brands, and Asian cuisine exporters seeking scalable, standardized lamian production.
🧩 Key Features & Advantages
Authentic Hand-Pulled Effect: Simulates the continuous stretching process with servo arms to mimic the manual pulling technique, preserving traditional lamian texture.
Full Automation: From dough mixing to packaging, every process is programmable and controlled via PLC/HMI systems.
Adjustable Parameters: Customize noodle width, thickness, stretch length, and portion size based on product specs.
Hygienic Design: All parts in contact with dough or noodles are made of SUS 304/316 stainless steel; CIP (Clean-in-Place) system optional.
Flexible Layout: Modular design allows U-shaped, L-shaped, or straight-line installations depending on your factory space.
Energy Efficient: Equipped with high-efficiency motors and inverter control systems to reduce power consumption.
Low Labor Demand: Only 2–5 operators required depending on configuration; minimal manual handling.
