Corazza was founded by Natalino Corazza in 1954 and has since its very beginning been manufacturing dosing and wrapping machines for the food industry.

Corazza’s consolidated expertise, along with its commitment to developing and manufacturing high-performance solutions to meet the needs and expectations of customers all over the world, has made the company the global leader in dosing, wrapping and packaging lines for processed cheese and soup cubes.

RC was founded in 1973 in S. Giorgio di Piano (Bologna, Italy) and began its activity reconditioning dosing and wrapping machines for soup cubes built by Corazza.

RC progressively extended its know-how and proficiency and specialised in the reconditioning of complete lines for soup cubes including equipment of other important manufacturers.

From 1994 RC started producing its own packaging machines for pressed soup cubes, and is now one of the leading companies in the world in the manufacturing of complete turnkey lines.

RC – complete packaging lines for pressed soup cubes

RC’s high-speed automatic line is designed to work with pressed bouillon cubes with a speed of 800 tablets per minute. The line, which is a result of the company’s continuous research into pressed soup cubes, is formed of a press machine, a wrapping machine and a cartoning machine.

The PDP/V rotary press is designed to press low-fat, medium-humid products. It is an automatic and full mechanical machine which can be equipped with an automatic feeding system that ensures an optimal product level inside the moulds and a continuous production with an extremely constant press.

The I6/V wrapping machine is conceived to wrap small and medium products reaching high level performances. It is equipped with four heads that are completely movable automatically for hygienisation. Stainless-steel product contact parts and a centralised lubrication system ensure longevity.

The CS300/V-STRAT cartoning machine is designed for small to medium-sized products. It features running-off open flat blanks on which, with proper blank adaptations, both traditional and re-closeable fliptop lid cartons can be used. Optimised tooling change minimises production downtimes.

Reconditioned equipment for bouillon cubes, processed cheese and butter

RC is also focused on supplying a wide range of high-quality, fully refurbished, cost-effective packaging solutions for soft and pressed bouillon cubes, processed cheese and butter.

RC re-engineers all types of equipment in its market range to the highest standards to meet the exacting demands of modern legislation and to improve performance and efficiency.
