The VCM-42-3PH can run at two speeds;
- 1,500 rpm for gentle preparation and better control when chopping, and
- 3,000 rpm for rapid mixing or blending of sauces or minced meats.
Four-armed scraper
The VCM has a scraper system designed to prevent food getting stuck on the inside and the lid of the bowl, where the knives are unable to reach. The four scraper arms keep the lid and the inside of the bowl clean as well as moving the ingredients back towards the knives making cutting the contents more efficient. This patented function enables the knives to cut the contents more effectively, shortening preparation time considerably and reducing heat arising from the cutting process. The lid has a 5 cm wide feed tube for filling while the machine is running.
Only the best material
The machine base is manufactured of robust metal. The bowl is stainless steel, the lid and scrapers are strong Tritan which the knife balk is acetal and the knives are stainless steel.
Developed for the best hygiene
The VCM is manufactured solely from hygiene certified material. The machine has smooth surfaces, rounded edges and has no unnecessary recesses where food might penetrate and get stuck. The machine base also has a drainage hole to prevent water accumulating on the top. For rapid cleaning, all loose components are easy to remove making the machine easy to rinse. All loose parts can be washed in the dishwasher.
Highest possible reliability
VCM’s powerful motor has a high torque during start-up and when in service and powers the direct-driven cutter. No belts or intermediate connections. This makes the VCM an exceptionally reliable machine – irrespective of the foods you are working with.
Exemplary safety features
The VCM has three individual safety switches. You can only start the machine if the bowl, lid and safety arm have been correctly fitted. The VCM has a mechanical motor brake which means the knives stop rotating immediately when the safety arm is turned to the side. As the motor brake is mechanical, it also works in the event of electrical faults or power failures.
Powerful knife unit
The VCM has a generously sized knife unit of acetal with two large knives that effectively cut through the ingredients. The removable knives are serrated in order to maintain their sharpness longer.
User friendly ergonomics
The machine is controlled using one knob instead of several buttons required with other brands. The knob is located on the left hand side allowing your right hand to remain free for the scraper or for filling. The knob is at a convenient height to ensure an ergonomic working posture.
Easy to carry
Both the machine and bowl have two large handles that make them easy to carry.
