Ampia 180 is absolutely the first model of pasta machine made by Marcato. In its perfect simplicity, it can be used to prepare three pasta shapes: lasagne, fettuccine (6 mm) and taglioni (1.5 mm). Despite having undergone many innovations, like other Marcato products, the timeless spirit of this machine has been retained, almost as if to preserve ancient family traditions and flavours of the past: This is why Ampia is still and only available in classic chrome steel, with rollers made of anodised aluminum alloy and combs and scrapers of polymeric resin.
