Ask a Question About This Product
The VDD 70 volumetric dough divider processes batches up to 60 kg, cutting uniform portions between 50 and 150 grams at ±5% accuracy. Operated by bakery staff in high-throughput production environments where roll, bun, and small bread consistency determines output speed. The 1.5 kW suction system fills chambers from a hopper and deposits shaped portions onto an outfeed conveyor.
Commercial Application
Bakeries running continuous shifts use volumetric division to eliminate hand-cutting variance. The machine replaces manual portioning when production exceeds 500 pieces per hour. Hopper capacity and cycle time determine how often operators reload dough.
During morning production runs, staff load mixed dough into the hopper and adjust weight settings via calibrated chamber volume. The piece counter tracks output for shift reporting. Outfeed conveyor height adjusts to match downstream proofer or rounder bed height.
Key Operational Advantages
- Processes 60 kg batch capacity with volumetric suction chamber system
- Maintains ±5% weight tolerance across 50–150 gram dough piece range
- Runs on 1.5 kW motor at 380V three-phase supply
- Stainless steel hopper and contact surfaces meet CE hygiene standards
- Integrated piece counter records production volume per shift
- Adjustable outfeed conveyor aligns with downstream processing equipment height

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What batch capacity does the VDD 70 hopper hold?
A: The hopper processes up to 60 kg of prepared dough per load. Operators reload based on piece count and production schedule. Hopper size determines cycle frequency during continuous operation.
Q: What motor power runs the volumetric divider system?
A: The unit operates on a 1.5 kW motor at 380V three-phase supply. Motor drives both the volumetric piston system and outfeed conveyor. Electrical installation requires three-phase commercial power availability.
Q: What dough weight range can the machine portion?
A: Adjustable chamber volume handles 50 to 150 gram portions with ±5% tolerance. Operators set weight by adjusting piston stroke length. Recalibration takes under five minutes when changing portion sizes.
Q: How does the piece counter track production volume?
A: The integrated counter increments with each divider cycle and displays cumulative pieces. Staff reset the counter at shift changes for output reporting. Counter memory retains totals during power interruptions.
Q: What duty cycle rating supports continuous bakery shifts?
A: The VDD 70 handles continuous operation across standard 8–10 hour bakery production shifts. Pneumatic components require periodic lubrication per maintenance schedule. Motor and drive systems operate without thermal shutdown under normal ambient temperatures.
