Marcato Atlas Pasta Maker

Yes. While the machine comes with attachments for those three shapes, the cutting head is removable and interchangeable. You can purchase additional accessories separately to create other pasta varieties like spaghetti, ravioli, or pappardelle.

The machine is relatively easy to maintain, but it should never be washed in a dishwasher or submerged in water. The best practice is to wipe the rollers and body with a dry brush or cloth after use, as the anodized aluminum is designed to prevent dough from sticking.

Operating the manual crank is straightforward, but it does require two hands—one to turn the handle and one to guide the dough. If you prefer a hands-free experience, the machine is compatible with an optional electric motor attachment that automates the rolling process.

The wellness version is crafted from materials that are nickel and chrome-free. This ensures that no metal residues are transferred to your pasta dough during the rolling and cutting process, making it a safer choice for those with specific metal sensitivities.

The 10 thickness settings allow for significant precision, ranging from a thick setting for hearty noodles to a paper-thin setting suitable for delicate ravioli or angel hair pasta. You can easily adjust the dial to find the exact thickness required for your specific recipe.
