FRITSCH renamed some of its machines as of September 1, to cluster its machine families according to end product groups as well as performance spectrum in the semi-automatic area.

With the VARIOCUT, the VARIOFLEX and the MULTIFLEX, a total of three machine families comprise the field of dough processing. In addition, the new brand PROGRESSA was launched, standing for a combination of dough sheet production and processing line. Depending on the combination and the corresponding output volume, the PROGRESSA lines bear the name suffix basic, plus or prime.
