Each module consists of one or two cylinders. Every module independently produces and stores gelato.
Technology & features
What the Synthesis 1 does for you
36 features in 6 groups. The tabs change by themselves until you choose one.
Hard-O-Tronic®
The LCD constantly shows batch-freezing status, and arrow buttons let the user change consistency to get the ideal gelato or sorbet.
Serving beater with lowered central shaft
Unique beater design with a lowered central shaft for easy serving, fitted with two interchangeable self-adjusting scrapers that keep the cylinder clean.
Dynamic Storage
After freezing, the machine switches to storage mode and runs the beater at intervals to keep the product in motion.
LCD display
Shows the selected program, progressive and final consistency, storage temperature and beater speed, with consistency, temperature and speed adjustable during freezing.
High-efficiency motor and condenser
Energy savings come from a high-efficiency electric motor and high-performance condenser.
Independent refrigeration and user interface per cylinder
Every cylinder is fully independent, with separate refrigeration and controls for consistency and storage temperature per flavour.
Serving beater with lowered shaft
The beater has a lowered central shaft and two interchangeable self-adjusting scraper blades for easy serving and a consistently clean cylinder.
Refrigerated scooper holder
A chilled holder with separate compartments stores the spatula or scoop hygienically; it and the lid are removable for cleaning.
High-efficiency motors and capacitors
High-efficiency electric motors and high-performance capacitors reduce energy consumption.
Dedicated programs: Gelato, Sorbet, Sicilian Slush, Fruit Cremolata
Specific programs make gelato and sorbet, traditional coffee, lemon and fruit slushes at low beater speed, and evenly crystallised fruit cremolata.
Gelato and Sorbet programs
Pour mix into the cylinder, pick the program and the machine freezes it, then moves to static storage at the ideal temperature.
Gelato Hot / Hot Age / Hot&Cold programs
Hot heats and pasteurises then freezes; Hot Age adds ageing; Hot&Cold heats and cools the mix before freezing, all followed by static storage.
Sicilian Slush program
The beater turns slowly to make coffee, lemon and fruit slushes without emulsifiers, following the traditional method.
Fruit Cremolata program
Uniformly crystallises water, fruit and sugar into a fresh cremolata.
Autodefrost
After a power failure or accidental stop, the machine automatically defrosts when production restarts, protecting the motor and allowing a quick restart.
Delayed cleaning program
Controls cylinder temperature after extraction so the machine does not need immediate washing during extended stoppages.
Hot Wash
Heats the cylinder during cleaning to dissolve product residues and speed up washing.
Dry Clean
Clears any remaining wetness or humidity from the cylinder once cleaning is finished.
Pasteurise and batch freeze in one cylinder
Mix can be pasteurised, batch frozen and stored in the same cylinder, letting gelato be made in view of customers.
About Ready technology: pasteurise, age and freeze in one machine →
Hot Wash (heated cleaning)
Heats the cylinder to break down product residue and speed up cleaning.
Integrated wash kit
Each module includes a hand shower and a liquid aspirator with built-in pump and filter, both with quick couplings and spiral hoses.
Static Storage
After freezing, gelato is held in the cylinder at a controlled temperature ready to serve, avoiding thermal shock; each flavour’s storage temperature is adjustable.
Advanced refill
When little gelato remains, the operator can add liquid mix to the cylinder and restart the freezing cycle.
Overnight Storage
Keeps the mix in the cylinder overnight at a positive temperature for hygienic safety.
Thermoplastic lid
Light, ergonomic lid lets customers see the gelato during production and storage, protects the refrigerated spatula and locks fully open for easy access.
Ergonomic design
Corners are more rounded in the areas where the operator works, lowering the risk of knocks and injuries.
QR Code equipment information
A QR Code on the front of the machine links to the latest instruction manual and Carpi Care and Carpi Clean kit details.
Modularity
Single, double-horizontal and double-vertical modules can be combined to suit the space and layout.
Thermoplastic see-through lid
A light, ergonomic lid shows the gelato during production and storage, stays open when needed and protects the refrigerated spatula; on Synthesis 2 H it doubles as a serving surface.
Wheels
Wheels install easily and make the unit simple to move.
QR code documentation access
Scanning the front QR code shows the latest manual and Carpi Care and Carpi Clean kit details.
Optional
Carpi Care kit & Carpi Clean kit
Dedicated kits of replacement gaskets and cleaning brushes, ordered through your dealer, to keep the machine in hygienic condition.
Optional
Teorema
Teorema supports production continuity with remote monitoring and diagnostics via PC, tablet or smartphone.
Optional extras can be added to your order or, for most items, fitted later. All Carpigiani options and accessories →
