Alpina 130ltr Bowl Chopper

• Used in meat processing for fine comminution of products like sausages, pâtés, and emulsions.
• Suitable for processing vegetables, cheeses, and other food items into pastes, purees, or fine particulate matter.
• Employed in the production of deli meats, spreads, and certain bakery fillings requiring a consistent, fine texture.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, bowl choppers commonly range from 50 litres to over 500 litres; a 200-litre unit is considered medium to large scale.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz in the UK, with varying motor power depending on size and blade configuration.

Construction material

High-quality bowl choppers, especially for food processing, are predominantly constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

Blade configuration

Commonly features multiple high-speed blades (e.g., 3 or 6) designed for efficient cutting and emulsifying, often with variable speed control.

Safety features

Typically includes safety interlocks on the lid and bowl, emergency stop buttons, and blade guards to protect operators.

Footprint

A 200-litre bowl chopper will require a significant floor space, typically measuring around 2000mm x 1500mm x 1800mm (LWH), excluding ancillary equipment.

Loading/Unloading

Many larger units, like this Alpina Swopper 200, are equipped with hydraulic loaders/unloaders for tubs or trolleys to facilitate material handling.

Environmental sensors are valued for their precision and reliability across laboratory and pharmaceutical applications. Buyers typically prioritize calibration history and documentation when purchasing used units. These instruments generally offer consistent performance across temperature, humidity and air quality monitoring. Key considerations include sensor accuracy specifications, maintenance records, and compatibility with existing laboratory management systems. Well-maintained units provide dependable long-term operation, making them cost-effective alternatives to new equipment for facilities requiring consistent environmental monitoring.
