Recently, our customized automatic shumai forming machine has been successfully delivered to a food manufacturing plant in Italy. This client specializes in frozen Asian dim sum supplied to local supermarkets and restaurant chains. Standard off‑the‑shelf shumai machines cannot meet their unique requirements on wrapper weight, filling ratio, product shape and recipe, which pushed them to look for custom engineering support.
At the early project stage, our engineering team worked closely with the customer to confirm sample specs, dough property, filling viscosity, local power supply and EU food hygiene standards. We redesigned forming mould, wrapper feeding assembly and filling dosing unit, and optimized the opening & pleating mechanism. The custom setup ensures consistent full shape, neat top opening and low wrapper breakage rate for their signature siomai. The frame is constructed with SUS304 food grade stainless steel, the machine meets CE safety and hygiene standards and fits local workshop conditions.
This custom shumai machine can work standalone or integrate with vacuum dough mixers, wrapper pre‑processing units and automatic tray loaders to form a complete frozen dim sum production line.
For overseas dim sum producers, many production bottlenecks come from differentiated product standards: special filling formulas, non‑standard piece weight, custom pleating styles. Generic forming machines often struggle to run stable mass production. This Italy delivery marks another successful case of our overseas custom turnkey solution. Our service covers sample testing, parameter calibration, factory pre‑run, export packing, remote commissioning and operator training for food factories across Europe.
