Polin - Mixer Tipper

• Transferring dough or other viscous food products from a mixer bowl to a dough divider or other processing equipment.
• Elevating ingredients for controlled discharge into hoppers or other machinery.
• Emptying large mixer bowls efficiently in bakeries and food production facilities.
• Integrating with automated production lines to streamline material handling.

Typical lift height

For this class of equipment, lift heights commonly range from 2.5m to 4m, suitable for discharging into standard processing machinery.

Compatible mixer types

Units of this type are typically designed for specific mixer styles, such as planetary mixers, with custom cradles to secure the bowl.

Power supply

Commonly requires a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying motor power depending on lifting capacity.

Construction material

Typically constructed from stainless steel for food contact areas and robust mild steel for structural components, ensuring hygiene and durability.

Tipping angle

Units commonly offer a tipping angle sufficient for complete discharge, often exceeding 90 degrees.

Safety features

Typically includes safety interlocks, emergency stop buttons, and guarding to prevent access during operation.

• What is a mixer tipper used for?

  A mixer tipper is used to safely and efficiently lift and tip the contents of large mixer bowls into downstream processing equipment, reducing manual handling and improving workflow.

• How do I know if this tipper will fit my existing mixer?

• What maintenance is typically required for a mixer tipper?

• Can this unit handle different types of food products?

• Are spare parts readily available for used equipment like this?

Lifting and tipping equipment for food handling is valued for durability and reliability in demanding environments. Buyers typically prioritize robust construction, stainless steel components where applicable, and compliance with food safety standards. When purchasing used models, inspectors should assess mechanical wear, hydraulic system condition, and operational smoothness. Common strengths include longevity when properly maintained, efficient load handling, and adaptability to various food processing workflows. Equipment reputation generally remains strong provided previous maintenance records are documented and critical seals show minimal degradation.
