Traditional Kneading Excellence for Artisan and Industrial Bakeries
VMI’s comprehensive range of fork mixers combines traditional kneading methods with modern engineering to deliver exceptional results for bread, Viennese pastry, and pizza dough production. Available in both fixed and removable bowl configurations with volumes from 30 to 330 liters, these mixers offer the perfect balance of traditional dough handling and production efficiency.
- Reduced kneading time thanks to an exclusive, patented arm
- Silent operation
- Versatile; can knead bread dough, shortcrust dough, pizza dough, pancake dough
- Also available with removable bowl
The Mahot fork mixer boasts an exclusive arm and higher operating speed. Its patented mixing tool holds the dough to reduce working time while ensuring quality kneading. The tool’s concave shape allows for better penetration in the dough, thus guaranteeing better oxygenation.
Two models are available, with bowl volumes of 230 liters or 330 liters (120 kg or 160 kg of dough*). The 330-liter model is available in a fixed bowl and removable bowl versions.
The Mahot fork mixer has three operating modes: manual, semi-manual, and automatic. Its operation is silent thanks to a couple of spiral bevel gears that deliver the motor’s full power without any loss of energy.
*Maximum dough capacity, for an average hydration rate of 60%.
