You might not guess it, but that tangle of pasta you ate for supper last night was a design and engineering triumph. Chances are the noodles were uniform in length and diameter, cooked consistently, and appeared all the same color. That kind of perfection doesn’t come easily. Just ask Creo customer Pavan Group. The company manufactures industrial machinery for pasta to ensure your noodles are the same every time. Pavan’s designs are made so:
- Mixers can be quickly disassembled and cleaned thoroughly.
- Dies can be swapped easily for changing pasta shapes. (Do you know Wikipedia lists more than 100 types of pasta noodles?)
- Humidity and drying times are consistent throughout drying phases.
Pavan makes sure you don’t see “starch swelling” or discoloration either. These things don’t hurt the taste of your food, but inconsistencies turn off consumers.
Attending to all these little details has made Pavan a world leader in industrial pasta machinery. Today, Pavan dominates 35% of the market globally and sells its machinery into 120 countries.

“With Creo, we’re able to focus on design, rather than the methods supported by the design tool,” explains Sandro Rasera, Technical Director of the Pavan Group. “It really means that we can best leverage the company’s true technical asset – the years of experience across the whole design team.”
The Pavan Group sells equipment under brand names Pavan (Machinery for Pasta), Mapimpianti (cooking extrusion systems for snacks, pellets and direct expanded snacks,cereals and pasta; stackable potato chips lines), Toresani (machinery for [filled] fresh pasta, gnocchi), Montoni (dies), Stiavelli (packaging equipment), Dizma (packaging equipment) and Pizeta (turnkey conveyor systems).
Oh, and if you remain unconvinced spaghetti isn’t interesting from an design engineering perspective, there’s this:
