    About Pizza Dough Presses

    Pizza dough presses are used to flatten dough balls into consistent pizza crusts with minimal effort and no rolling or hand stretching. Most models use a heated top platen (typically up to 200°F) to relax the dough, making it easier to press evenly without sticking. This helps reduce labor time and ensures uniformity across each pizza base. Presses are available in manual, semi-automatic, and automatic versions, allowing operations to match equipment to their volume and staffing needs. Commonly used in pizzerias, school kitchens, commissaries, and convenience stores.
