Product Description
The Vollrath 4075803 is a floor-standing planetary mixer with a 28-litre stainless steel bowl, designed for consistent, high-volume mixing across a range of kitchen tasks. Planetary action — where the attachment orbits the bowl while rotating on its own axis — ensures thorough, even coverage throughout the mix, whether you're working with stiff doughs, batters, or whipped preparations.
In a busy production kitchen, this mixer holds up well across extended mixing sessions. The three-speed transmission gives operators control over ingredient incorporation at different stages, and the 30-minute automatic timer allows staff to step away without risk of over-mixing. The safety cut-switch, which stops the unit if gears are changed while the mixer is running, is a practical feature that reduces both operator error and mechanical wear over time.
The Number 12 hub extends the machine's usefulness beyond mixing — it accepts Vollrath meat grinder and vegetable slicer attachments, which can reduce the need for separate pieces of equipment in tighter kitchens. Standard accessories included are:
- Dough hook for bread and pastry production
- Wire whisk for creams, meringues, and aerated mixes
- Flat spatula for general mixing and cake batters
- Stainless steel mixing bowl
- Safety guard
Being floor-standing, this mixer requires adequate floor space and a stable, level surface — it is not suited to bench-top installation. Its capacity places it comfortably in mid-range production; it suits bakeries, hotel kitchens, and catering operations with regular bulk mixing requirements, but operators running very high daily volumes may find a larger capacity machine more appropriate for their throughput.
If you're weighing this model against your kitchen's production demands or want to check attachment compatibility with your existing workflow, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- A 28-litre bowl suits mid-scale production well — it's a practical size for regular batches of dough, batter, or whipped preparations without the bulk of a larger floor-standing unit. If your operation involves continuous high-volume output throughout the day, it's worth discussing whether a higher-capacity model would give you better throughput with fewer batch cycles.
- The mixer needs a stable, level floor surface with enough clearance around it for safe operation and bowl removal. You'll need a suitable electrical supply — if you're unsure of the exact power requirements for your site, we'd recommend confirming before ordering as floor-standing mixers of this type can vary. No specialist ventilation or water connections are required.
- The hub is a standard Number 12 fitting, which is a common size in commercial mixers, but attachment compatibility isn't always straightforward across brands. Vollrath's own grinder and vegetable slicer attachments are confirmed to fit, and it's worth checking directly with us if you have third-party attachments you want to use before assuming compatibility.
