Hobart Vertical Cutter/Mixer

Hobart Cutter/Mixer. Model: VCM-40. Unit features a 3-position motor controller (OFF-LOW-HIGH) manual rotary-type drum switch that is mechanically interlocked with bowl cover. Low speed is used for general cutting and mixing while high speed is used for emulsifying, pureeing pulverizing and crumbing. A motor, mounted beneath the bowl, supplies power directly to the cutting/mixing knives. The scimitar knives are at a fixed angle. Rotating at high speed, they pull the product down through the central portion of the bowl, slicing it in the process. The product is then returned up the sides of the bowl by centrifugal force. A vortex is created inside the bowl, which keeps the entire load in motion. When cutting certain products the action is supplemented by a hand operated mixing baffle. The Hobart bowl is tubular base-mounted and is available with a bowl inspection cover. Inlets/outlets: 20 in. dia. bowl opening. 2-Speed Motor: 7.5/10.5 hp, 1750/3500 rpm, 200-230/460 V, 60 Hz, 3 phase. Overall dimensions: 37 in. L x 27 in. W x 46 in. H.
