Dough sheeter SIGMA T50

A vertical dough rolling machine shapes and stretches dough sheets without manual effort, using a pair of motor-driven cylinders that pull the dough through at a controlled speed. The gap between the cylinders sets the thickness of the sheet, and the motor's torque ensures even pressure across the width, producing consistent results for laminated pastries, pizza bases, or flatbreads. Because the machine stands upright, it occupies minimal floor space while still handling large batches, making it practical for bakeries with limited worktop area.

To operate the SIGMA T50, the operator first opens the cylinder assembly with the easy-to-use handle, then sets the two regulators to the desired minimum and maximum thickness. Dough is fed into the gap between the rotating cylinders; the motor draws it through, and the sheet emerges on the outgoing strips. The adjustable lever with its double block prevents accidental changes to the gap during use, while the non-toxic materials in contact with the dough ensure food safety throughout the process.

The machine's construction centres on a hard-chrome Mac cylinder with a 15 mm bore, chosen for durability and resistance to corrosion. When not in use, the cylinder assembly folds back, reducing the footprint to 760 mm by 400 mm; when opened for rolling, it extends to 580 mm in width while maintaining the same height and depth. The entire unit weighs 70 kg, making it stable on the floor yet still movable with a standard bakery trolley.

Controls consist of the two thickness regulators and the motor switch. The 0.55 kW motor runs on either single-phase or three-phase supply, allowing installation on most commercial circuits without additional wiring. Safety features comply with current standards, reducing the risk of operator injury during normal use.

Cleaning involves periodic wiping of the cylinders and outgoing strips to remove dough residue, followed by inspection of the adjustable lever and handle mechanism to ensure smooth operation. No lubrication is required beyond the factory settings, keeping maintenance to a minimum.

The SIGMA T50 is listed in the bakery equipment catalogue under vertical dough rollers.
