The gravity version, with 18+18-litre hopper capacity, allows up to 40% of overrun, for compact, dense gelato. The pump version, with 12+12-litre hopper capacity, can incorporate up to 80% of overrun, for a creamier gelato.

It is possible to equip the machines with the Star Door, specifically for use with the nozzles of the single-portion kit and the new nozzles, with which to customise the style and shape of soft gelato. The machine can be equipped with the Winter Door, which allows the completely separate use of the two cylinders by blocking the middle part. This additional feature can be used both during washing and production, allowing for a more flexible use of the machine.

It is possible to choose whether to equip the machine with the automatic self-pasteurisation system, which allows scheduling the next machine washing at a maximum interval of 42 days.

Technology & features

What the 193 Steel does for you

35 features in 5 groups. The tabs change by themselves until you choose one.

  • Hard-O-Tronic® (H-O-T) consistency control

    Carpigiani’s electronic consistency control lets operators set and change soft serve texture, from delicate vanilla to firm chocolate, to suit different product styles.

    About Hard-O-Tronic® →

  • Choice of mix feeding system: pump (P) or gravity (G)

    Pump versions use a pressurised steel pump with thermoplastic polymer gears for dry, compact product; gravity versions meter air through feed-tube holes for up to 40% overrun.

    More →

  • Adjustable overrun (pump regulator / overrun adjuster)

    On pump models the regulator holes deliver 40–80% overrun; on gravity models an overrun adjuster uses feed-tube holes above and below the mix. Both can be changed without emptying the tank.

    More →

  • 2E-RSI High Efficiency Beater

    A stainless steel high-efficiency beater with plastic scrapers and a removable shaft, suited to soft, creamy soft serve.

    About High-efficiency beaters →

  • High Efficiency POM Beater

    A convenient one-piece beater made from food-grade plastic, supplied as standard on gravity-fed versions.

    About High-efficiency beaters →

  • Adjustable dispensing speed

    Dispensing flow can be adjusted to suit different serving volumes and speeds.

    More →

  • Independent pump transmission

    On pump versions a separate pump transmission prolongs the life of the pump and gears while keeping performance high.

    More →

  • High-performance gearmotors and condensers

    New high-performance electric gearmotors and condensers are used to reduce running costs.

    More →

  • Choice of cooling: air or water

    Air-cooled units have a rear chimney so machines can sit side by side; water-cooled units use rear-mounted inlet and outlet connections. Water cooling is optional.

    More about this option →

  • Removable pump shaft

    The pump shaft can be removed, making cleaning easier and supporting hygiene and reliability.

    More →

How Carpigiani’s exclusive technologies work →

  • Black-out and water outage protection

    After a power or water failure the machine resumes if time-temperature data show the mix is unaffected; otherwise self-pasteurising units run a pasteurisation cycle and non-pasteurising units prompt a wash.

    About Black-out and water outage protection →

  • Multifunctional cleaning button with hot cleaning

    One button switches the pump and beater on or off separately or together; the hot-cleaning function heats the cylinder surface while stirring to break down fatty residues quickly.

    About Multifunctional cleaning button and hot cleaning →

  • Carpi Care kit / Carpi Clean kit

    Dedicated kits of gaskets and brushes, available from the dealer, for keeping the machine hygienic and clean.

    More about this option →

  • 1.75 L direct expansion cylinder

    The 1.75 L direct-expansion freezing cylinder optimises refrigeration for quicker freezing and energy savings, with a repositioned feed hole for simple, safe pre-loading.

    More →

  • Independent cylinders (193)

    The 193’s independent cylinders let you serve two different products at once, or combine them as a twist.

    More →

  • Scheduled start

    Production, pasteurisation and storage programs can be set to start automatically, for example overnight, so the machine is ready to serve the next day.

    About Scheduled start →

  • Tank agitator

    Keeps the stored mix from stratifying and improves heat exchange during pasteurisation.

    More →

  • Button lock

    Display buttons can be locked to avoid accidental operating errors.

    More →

  • Rubber tank lid

    The rubber lid opens partially so the tank can be topped up without removing it; on 193 models each tank opens separately to avoid filling the wrong one.

    More →

  • Ergonomic design

    Corners in the operator’s working area are more rounded to lower the risk of injury.

    More →

  • QR code documentation access

    Scanning the QR code on the machine front brings up the current instruction manual and Carpi Care and Carpi Clean kit details.

    More →

  • Optional

    Self-pasteurisation system

    The automatic self-pasteurisation system lets you schedule full cleaning at intervals of up to 42 days; if cleaning is not done by the deadline, the machine locks itself for hygiene. Standard on 241 SP.

    About Self-pasteurisation (heat treatment) →

  • Optional

    Teorema remote monitoring and diagnosis

    Teorema lets owners check machine operation from a computer, tablet or phone and gives Carpigiani technicians remote access to settings for faster support.

    About Teorema →
