Not a single flour production whose scale exceeds “bake pies for the family a couple of times a week” can do without a dough mixer. No human resources can replace the work of the machine. This is especially true for those enterprises whose scale is above average. Naturally, today you can find a lot of all kinds of variations of this equipment, but now we will talk about the dough mixer TMM-1M, which is an excellent combination of price and quality.
He is also good at being made in Russia. This means that, in which case, there will be no problems with spare parts, and they will not have to wait 60-90 days, as is the case with Chinese or European equipment.
Functional mixer
The mixer operator is designed to knead the dough. The procedure takes place in two stages:
- All components are mixed together until uniform.
- The dough is kneaded full cycle necessary for the development of gluten. This will provide the desired consistency to the finished product.
The task seems to be simple, but the devil is in the details - what about those who are forced to knead large batches of dough daily, with different densities? Go broke, buying a separate dough mixer for yeast dough and separately - for a dense fresh? Not all of them can afford it, especially in the early stages of business development. In such cases, the mixer operator TMM-1M of the Penzmash plant, which specializes in the production of equipment for the food industry, will be an excellent option.
Complete set of a mixer operator TMM-1M
Kneading machine consists of two elements:
- the mixer operator itself;
- rolling bowl.
The presence of the latter is due to the large volume of dough with a one-time kneading - it would be too inconvenient to pull it out of a stationary bowl. Maintenance of equipment after the end of the shift would also be complicated.
The main machine is a plate on which gearboxes are located, a machine case that drives a kneading lever made of stainless steel. The composition of the plate includes:
- kneading machine gearbox;
- bowl gearbox.
Rotation from one to the other is transmitted by means of a connecting shaft.
The mixer operator gearbox itself is designed to transmit movement from the electric motor to the bowl drive gearbox and the kneading mechanism.
The characteristics of this industrial mixer operator are as follows:
- capacity of the working bowl - 141 liters;
- kneading period - from 6 to 25 minutes, depending on the technological map;
- minimum bowl loading - 50%;
- average productivity - 550 kg / h;
- power - 1.54 kW;
- bowl capacity for flour - 50 kg;
- width - 870 mm;
- depth - 1300 mm;
- height - 1055 mm;
- one-time kneading of yeast dough with humidity up to 43% - 55 kg;
- one-time batch of butter yeast dough with 8% fat - 50 kg;
- one-time batch of unleavened dough - 30 kg;
- the number of rotations of the bowl in the minute - 41;
- the number of rotations of the kneading lever per minute - 27;
- connection type - 380 V;
- the mass of the mixer operator with a bowl - 350 kg.
Mixer for yeast dough
The main purpose of such a machine as a dough mixer TMM-1M - kneading yeast dough with a variable percentage of moisture. It is perfect for a semi-liquid donut test, and for a fairly cool test for the same loaves. The kneading period, depending on the technological map, can range from 7 to 25 minutes. Based on your test recipe, you can calculate equipment performance and see if it fits your needs or not. However, in any case, it is recommended not to stop kneading after all the products are combined in one lump - longer processing of the dough contributes to the development of gluten, which makes the final product more fibrous, “right” bread.
Mixer operator TMM-1M for fresh dough
Most kneading machines for yeast dough do not tolerate systematic work with cool mixtures - this is an excessive load for their capabilities, such operation significantly reduces their working life.
This applies to all dough mixers, except for the TMM-1M model: it can knead any composition without harm to itself, regardless of the percentage of liquid in it. Thanks to this industrial kneading machine allows you to cook cool dough for dumplings, dumplings, pasties, strudel and puffs, moreover, in normal operating mode.
Alternative use of the mixer operator TMM-1M
Those enterprises that use this mixer operator for a cool dough will be glad to know that it can also knead minced meat successfully. And this is logical - the coolest dough is most in demand in the factories that create frozen semi-finished products (dumplings, dumplings). For them, the question of the constant kneading of a homogeneous filling is no less acute than getting a quality test.
User reviews
Those who worked with the equipment from the Penzmash plant speak about it exclusively in an enthusiastic way, which is worth at least the fact that this is a dough mixer for tough dough, and a dough mixer for yeast in one! And this despite the fact that it is frankly inexpensive. The TMM mixer operator, the price of which today does not exceed 80,000 rubles, seems to any entrepreneur a successful investment of money, especially against the background of today's prices, which are growing irregularly.
The ease of operation and maintenance is also worth noting. The minuses included the periodic failure of control elements under high load conditions, but they are easy to find in the spare parts department, and production does not have to stand idle. Also, any minor problems are easily solved, as the plant’s technologists took care of everything, providing the accompanying documentation with quality information on troubleshooting. To do this, it is enough to study the package of papers that comes with such equipment as a dough mixer TMM-1M - a passport and an instruction manual.
Where could I buy?
Oddly enough, with all the positive qualities of this equipment, it is currently quite difficult to purchase it. The plant puts small batches on the market, and demand still exceeds supply. The mixer operator TMM-1M for some reason is not particularly common among suppliers of industrial baking equipment, so in most cases you have to request it directly from the manufacturer. Typically, the processing time for an order is 4-6 weeks.
