The noodle cutter makes it easier for us to roll out dough for noodles, pasties, ravioli, lasagna, beshbarmak, pita and, of course, for dumplings. We all know how to make delicious homemade dumplings. But we do not always have time to prepare them. But there is no convenient dumpling machine for the width of the dough sheeter yet. I have raviolniks, but they do not replace the dumplings. I have been obsessed with the idea of ​​a dumplings for a noodle cutter for a long time. I have 6 types of dumplings at home. Two metal (old heavy Soviet and modern thin light Belarusian) and 4 more pieces of plastic dumplings.
A bit of history. The beginning of my early exploration.
Poll: Do you need a dumpling machine for the width of a dough sheeter-noodle cutter?
Poll: Do you need a dumpling machine for the width of a dough sheeter-noodle cutter?
Here, from two cheap plastic cut dumplings with electrical clamps, I assembled a long dumplings. As expected, the structure turned out to be flimsy, fidgety, unstable, and inconvenient for the powerful rolling force. I did not receive any due quality and gain in time. I also had a master class on sculpting dumplings with a stencil https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/in...n=com_smf&topic=18833.220 For myself, I made an unequivocal conclusion that the dumpling maker should definitely be monolithic and pressure-resistant with a rolling pin.
Poll: Do you need a dumpling machine for the width of a dough sheeter-noodle cutter?
My crystal dream is such a virtual, not yet created by anyone, cast aluminum dumpling maker for 34 dumplings. Three-row, 11 dumplings in the outer rows, 12 dumplings in the central row. The aluminum dumpling maker is the most durable and reliable.
The length of the ready-made dumplings is 50 cm, the width of the dumplings is 16 cm, the height, taking into account the dividing edges and legs, is 3 cm, so that the dumplings do not strike with their stuffed "belly" on the table top. There is no reason to make a longer dumplings, since the width of most modern kitchen countertops is 60 cm

Or such, of course, also virtual, also not yet created by anyone, a plastic dumpling machine. A plastic dumpling maker is convenient because it can be washed in a dishwasher, but it loses a lot to a cast aluminum one in strength, reliability and, most importantly, in terms of life. Indeed, considerable efforts are made to cut the dumplings with a rolling pin along the ribs and shake out the finished dumplings from the dumplings. I trust the cast aluminum dumpling maker more. Although I will be glad to have a plastic dumpling maker
I studied materials for a long time and a lot, dug the Internet, forums of metalworkers and foundry workers. Andrey Kushniryuk lives in America, he made a mold and cast a huge dumplings. Here is a link to the metal forum with its videos. 🔗 He sells his mega dumplings to buyers in all countries except Russia. I made repeated attempts to call Russian manufacturers of dumplings and aluminum cast utensils. These were: IE Pisarenko FG from Stavropol, "M-plastic" IDEA from Moscow region, Kukmar from Tatarstan. But alas, the employees answering the calls showed no interest and did not write down the question or my phone number. Nobody called me back once. And yet I don't give up yet.
I decided that it is worth looking for manufacturers of plastic casting or even better aluminum casting in my region - the Novgorod region. After all, I can personally meet and show a sample of the dumplings. And the shape of the cells of the dumpling maker, the depth of the cell, the height and angle of inclination of the dividing ribs are very important for fast modeling, because in an unsuccessful dumpling maker the dumplings will be skinny and will not leave the mold well.And we do not need any kind of dumpling maker, if only for a noodle cutter, we only need a very clever and convenient dumpling maker.
I met with a representative of one of the Novgorod factories engaged in the casting of plastics for the needs of their own production. She brought a photo of her master class on molding dumplings to the meeting and showed the plastic rectangular dumpling maker itself. They listened to me with interest, they promised to watch my master class on dumplings on our forum. Indeed, they watched the master class, they called me back and asked, "How many pieces of dumplings should be made for the dough sheeter?" For the final price of one dumpling maker depends on the number of ordered dumplings. They explained to me that in order to start casting dumplings, you first need to make a mold, and it costs 300,000 rubles, and in addition the manufacturer needs to issue a sanitary and hygienic certificate for the dumplings, since there will be contact with food. To make dumplings for us, a production worker must believe the words of one city madwoman (that is, me) that there are a lot of us, such crazy people at kitchen gadgets, who already have dough sheeters, and there are enough of them to make this project feasible. After all, a production worker must trust us and, at his own peril and risk, for his own funds, make tooling in the form of a mold, order and pay for a hygienic certificate for a dumpling machine, rental of premises, equipment maintenance, electricity, raw materials, workers' wages, contributions to all mandatory funds and taxes. And even to all of us to send dumplings to our cities and villages. We do not pay anything in advance. We will pay only for ready-made casted dumplings. The more we order dumplings, the lower the price of the dumplings will be. They sent me a protocol of agreeing a contractual price for the performance of services for casting parts. So, in this protocol, the production worker pledged 1500 pieces of dumplings for the cost of all costs incurred + his own profit. Opportunities allow to cast 150 pieces of food-grade polypropylene dumplings per day. I will not name the price from the protocol, I will only say that if we order one and a half thousand dumplings, then one dumplings will roughly cost us equivalent to the average price for 1 kg of meat. By the way, this manufacturer himself undertakes to send us dumplings, however, only within our customs union (and this is Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan), since it is much more expensive to issue a hygienic certificate for a dumpling maker for sale abroad. Can we order so many dumplings? Other manufacturers cannot announce the price of the dumplings, because they do not know the volume of the order. Can we get organized and make an organized one-time order? Or is it an initially delusional idea? And you can't collect so many orders? Perhaps it will turn out that there will be a small group of people who want to order dumplings. It is difficult to predict the number of people who want to order dumplings. This can be found out only by asking you, dear forum users. I want to say right away that I am not pursuing any personal commercial gain. I just want to buy for my personal use a convenient dumpling maker for the width of the dough sheeter, no more... Maybe among our members of the forum there will be people involved in the casting of plastics, and even better in the casting of aluminum? Or maybe they even take up this project and invest their money, get their own well-deserved profit? I personally do not care where the dumplings will be made, in Veliky Novgorod, Kukmar, St. Petersburg, Moscow or somewhere else. The main thing is that we have the opportunity to purchase reliable, convenient dumplings at an adequate price. I personally need three dumplings - myself, my daughter, my friend. Maybe you will order not only for yourself, but perhaps for your daughter, daughter-in-law, mother, sister-in-law, sweater, godfather or friend?
I agreed with the first manufacturer about the next meeting, but for some reason he postponed the meeting from one day to another. Then he again referred to being busy. Maybe he moved away from the impact after reading the topic on the dumplings of our forum, or maybe he was really busy. Of course, with our obsession, many consider us abnormal, even in our inner circle, and what can we say about other people.
After a lull in communication with the first production worker, I contacted two more production workers - one also makes plastic castings, but another, a very serious production worker with a good base for the production of critical components for the oil and chemical industry, as well as for nuclear power plants, it turns out, earlier, in Soviet times, I cast aluminum dumplings! And they now have the ability to cast aluminum dumplings. And the aluminum dumpling maker for me personally is just a crystal dream! But even here, for a substantive conversation, they require, in addition to the working drawing, to name the number of dumplings that they need to make. And only then can they give a reasonable price for one piece. And this is a serious, responsible approach. The fact that it is also necessary to send these dumplings to our cities and villages, so I did not even stutter about it.
Here the Kukmara plant in Tatarstan casts wonderful bakery molds, pans, muffins, cauldrons from aluminum and has its own online store for mailing its products. But Kukmara does not answer calls! And there are no dumplings in his assortment. How to reach Kukmara?
That is why I started this topic with a survey, do we need dumplings for the width of the noodle cutter. And can we organize ourselves for a one-time order of dumplings? Perhaps we will have fewer customers, but we will buy the dumplings a little more expensive. Or will the collective mind decide to go directly to the manufacturers of dumplings with an open letter or other type of appeal? Maybe we should take online stores selling noodle cutters as our allies? After all, they are a financially interested party and who knows the true sales volumes of noodle cutters better than they do? Maybe with their help we will be able to build a chain Production of dumplings - Seller of dumplings - Buyer of dumplings in our face?
For myself, I decided, if I can't order dumplings, then I will try to order a turner to grind long shafts of 25 cm for one of my (I have two empires of titania) noodles. True, I am afraid that the gears will withstand the increased load of a wide layer of steep dough. Difficulties in finding and processing the necessary raw materials for shafts, because you need strong and stainless shafts. At the same time, it is also necessary to assemble it so that the structure is strong and reliable, and the gap between the rolls is parallel. And this is very difficult. Will this option be feasible and will it not be more expensive than a ready-made sheeter with wide shafts? It's hard to know in advance. I do not exclude the option of buying a dough sheeter with a roll width of 22 cm, but it already costs a lot of money today.
Maybe we should at least try to convey to the production workers that there is a demand for a dumpling maker for a noodle cutter? If there are people interested in dumplings, please write how many dumplings you need - one, two or three. And what kind of dumplings would you like to have - plastic or aluminum. Or does it make no difference to you? Please vote at the beginning of the topic.
And be sure to write, I will be grateful for any constructive and well-grounded comments, advice and reflections on the dumplings.
So, I'll start with myself. We assign ourselves the current serial number, write our nickname, our city, mark the required number of dumplings and add it to the number of dumplings already ordered by other members of the forum.

Ipatiya
Creamy, it seems to me that casting from aluminum will cost much cheaper than plastic ones.
Creamy
Ipatiya.. for some reason I also have such a conviction. I do not know why. I went and weighed my old heavy Soviet dumplings - weight 682 grams. The old one is in the shape of a circle, we will have an elongated one, which means there will be a large length of the edges. I assume that the weight of "our" dumplings will be from 500 to 600 grams. But I’m never a caster. The factory foreman explained to me that for a small batch and low cost of aluminum castings, the method of "sand casting" is used. Who are the experts in this area on our forum? Join the discussion. But, in view of my ignorance in foundry (I studied the technology of structural materials at the institute a hundred years ago), I'm not sure if this method will give the necessary accuracy of casting thin dumplings edges. so that when rolling with a rolling pin, hexagons-honeycombs of dumplings are cut. Or maybe my fears are unfounded. It is necessary to find out from specialists. I know that with a large number of orders for aluminum casting, they also order a mold.
