Planetary Mixer
Planetary Mixer Varimixer Kodiak 20 and 30 L
Brand: Varimixer
The Varimixer Kodiak is a 20 and 30 litre planetary mixer designed after six months of observing work in 25 kitchens and bakeries. You simply set the time and speed and press start, the bowl rides on a tall trolley so there is no heavy lifting, and it won the Kitchen Innovation Award in 2015.
Overview
How this equipment is used
Designed by those who use it
For over six months, designers and engineers observed work in 25 different kitchens and bakeries. Focusing on working positions, heavy lifting and moving, cleaning and hygiene, they studied the routines before, during and after mixing. The result is a 20 and 30 litre mixer that sets new standards for how easy the work can be.
Simple operation
You do not need to read a manual to operate KODIAK. Set the time and speed, press start and stop. Everything is controlled at an ergonomic working height from the angled control panel.
No more heavy lifting
- The bowl sits stably on a tall bowl trolley that is wheeled in under the mixer for beating and kneading
- The bowl is locked, raised and lowered in a single movement using the ergonomic handle on the side of the machine
- The bowl can be wheeled to and from the machine at worktop height and tipped to empty the contents easily
- The bowl is held securely in a rubber ring during movement
Visibility, safety and speed
- Patented clear polycarbonate safety guard lets the operator watch the mixing
- The guard is held by magnets that also act as safety cut-offs - the machine will not run without the guard
- Raised working height and inward-sloping upper sides increase the view into the bowl
- Widened bowl and tools increase mixing speed and save time
- Runs on 230 V and connects to a normal power outlet
- IP44 rating, suitable for cleaning on the production line
The National Restaurant Association granted KODIAK the Kitchen Innovation Award in 2015.
