Sammic KE-8V - Cutter Mixer Emulsifier, 8L Stainless Bowl, Variable Speed

Sammic KE-8V - Cutter Mixer Emulsifier, 8L Stainless Bowl, Variable Speed

The KE-8V is a cutter-emulsifier from Sammic's ULTRA heavy duty line, with an 8 litre stainless steel bowl on a 1.5 kW brushless motor that runs from 300 to 3000 rpm. It cuts, grinds, texturises, mixes and kneads in seconds and comes with a Cut&Mix scraper, so it suits busy restaurants, delis, bakeries and catering or institutional kitchens producing large batches. It is the same machine as the KE-5V with a deeper bowl, and a big step up from the 4.4 litre KE-4V and K-41.

Key features:

• Brushless motor that keeps its torque across the speed range, with Sammic's Force Control System for a uniform, high quality result
• Solid side panels in place of vents, because the motor needs no ventilation, which improves water tightness and durability
• Quieter running: Sammic quotes a drop from 72 to 63 dB(A) compared with conventional motors
• Variable speed from 300 to 3000 rpm, with a timer and pulse button
• 8 litre stainless steel bowl with a lateral stirrer and high shaft for a fine, even mix
• Highly resistant transparent polycarbonate lid with the Cut&Mix scraper built in
• Toothed blades as standard, with smooth or perforated blades available on request
• Robust stainless steel motor block with an aluminium top
• Safety microswitches on the bowl and lid, a complete error warning system, and NSF International certification

Compare similar models:

• K-41: 4.4 litre bowl with a single speed 1500 rpm motor.

Common questions:

Should I choose the 8 litre KE-8V or the 5.5 litre KE-5V?
The two share the same motor, speed range, programs and footprint. The KE-8V's bowl is the same diameter but deeper (199 mm against 150 mm), so pick it if your usual batch is too big for 5.5 litres.

What is the reverse function for?
Running the blades in reverse mixes products instead of cutting them, so you can combine ingredients without chopping them any finer.

How do the programs help?
You can store up to 9 time and speed programs, and there are built-in settings for dense texture, fine texture and pulses (PrecisePulse). Staff select a program instead of judging time and speed by eye, which keeps large batches consistent.
