Technology & features

What the XVL 3 Classic does for you

35 features in 4 groups. The tabs change by themselves until you choose one.

  • Hard-O-Tronic® (H-O-T)

    Electronic control lets operators change the consistency of soft serve, sorbet or frozen yoghurt simply and quickly.

    About Hard-O-Tronic® →

  • Submerged pump feed (Version P)

    A pressurised steel pump with thermoplastic polymer gears and a holed regulator gives 40% to 80% overrun for dry, compact soft serve.

    More →

  • 2E-RSI High Efficiency Beater

    Stainless steel beater with plastic scrapers and a removable shaft, suited to soft and creamy product.

    About High-efficiency beaters →

  • High Efficiency POM Beater

    A one-piece beater in food-grade plastic, fitted as standard on gravity versions.

    About High-efficiency beaters →

  • Adjustable dispensing speed

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

    More →

  • Independent pump transmission

    On pump versions, a separate transmission prolongs pump and gear life while keeping performance flexible.

    More →

  • High-performance gearmotors and condensers

    New electric gearmotors and condensers deliver higher performance and savings.

    More →

  • Air or water cooling

    Water cooling uses a rear inlet/outlet circuit; air cooling with a rear chimney saves installation space and allows side-by-side placement.

    More about this option →

  • Removable pump shaft

    The pump shaft comes out easily, simplifying cleaning and supporting hygiene and reliability.

    More →

How Carpigiani’s exclusive technologies work →

  • Black-out and water outage protection

    After an outage the machine checks time and temperature: if the mix is safe it resumes; otherwise it starts pasteurisation (self-pasteurising models) or requires washing, with an on-screen message.

    About Black-out and water outage protection →

  • Multifunctional Cleaning Button

    Pump and beater can be switched on individually or together for cleaning; a hot cleaning mode runs the beater while heating the cylinder to dissolve grease quickly.

    About Multifunctional cleaning button and hot cleaning →

  • Independent cylinders

    On XVL 3 the independent cylinders allow products of different consistencies to be made at the same time.

    More →

  • Gravity feed (Version G)

    Feed tube holes of different sizes naturally aerate the mix; an overrun adjuster changes it even with a full tank.

    More →

  • 1.75 L direct expansion cylinder

    Optimised refrigeration shortens freezing times and saves energy; a relocated feed hole makes pre-loading simple and safe.

    More →

  • Star Door

    The Star Door allows the new nozzles and the single-portion kit to be used.

    More about this option →

  • Self Closing levers

    Levers close automatically to stop product flow and avoid waste; they are easy to assemble and remove.

    More about this option →

  • Pinless aluminium levers

    Levers can be taken off and refitted quickly without tools when the machine is unattended, suiting rotating staff.

  • Tank agitator

    An agitator in the tank stops the mix separating in storage and improves heat transfer during pasteurisation.

    More →

  • Minimum mixture residue

    A recess at the rear of the tank means very little mix is wasted during cleaning.

    More →

  • Button lock

    The control buttons can be locked to stop unintended inputs.

    More →

  • Scheduled start

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

    About Scheduled start →

  • Ergonomic transparent lid

    An ergonomic see-through lid makes checking the tank easy.

    More →

  • Ergonomic rounded corners

    Corners in the operator’s working area are more rounded to lower the chance of knocks and injuries during daily use.

    More →

    A QR code on the machine front links to the latest equipment information, including the instruction manual and Carpi Care and Carpi Clean kit details.

    More →
