Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing the right commercial veg prep machine depends on the ingredients you prepare, the quantity you handle and the results you need. Below, we’ve answered some common questions about vegetable preparation equipment, cutting discs and professional food processors to help you find the right machine for your kitchen.
What is a commercial veg prep machine?
A commercial veg prep machine is a professional kitchen appliance designed to prepare vegetables quickly and consistently. Depending on the model and cutting discs, these machines can slice, grate, shred and produce other cuts. They’re particularly useful for restaurants, hotels, schools and catering businesses preparing large quantities of vegetables.
What is the difference between a veg prep machine and a food processor?
A veg prep machine is mainly designed to slice, grate or shred vegetables using cutting discs. A commercial food processor generally uses a bowl and blade to chop, mix or blend ingredients. For example, the Robot Coupe CL20 is designed for vegetable preparation, while the Robot Coupe Blixer range is used for producing smooth purées and emulsions.
What is a Robot Coupe Blixer?
A Robot Coupe Blixer combines features of a food processor and blender to produce smooth, consistent textures. Unlike a traditional vegetable slicing machine, it is designed for finely processing ingredients. We stock the Robot Coupe Blixer 3 and Blixer 4 VV, suitable for preparing purées, mousses, sauces and other fine-textured mixtures.
What can a commercial vegetable preparation machine do?
A commercial vegetable preparation machine can help with everyday kitchen tasks such as slicing, grating and shredding vegetables. Depending on the model and compatible cutting discs, additional cuts may also be available. This makes veg prep machines useful for preparing salads, vegetables, garnishes and ingredients for larger dishes.
