The ITR40 spiral dough mixer is the 41-litre 3-phase 400V model of the raising-head range. At the same price as the IMR40 (41 L single-phase 230V, €2,700), the ITR40 is aimed at kitchens whose electrical installation is three-phase: native connection to the 3-phase board, no intermediary single-phase socket, coherence with the kitchen's other equipment. The raising head and removable bowl let you handle several dough types in the same service — an asset in pizzerias working both Neapolitan and classic dough, or in restaurants making their bread and pizza in-house.
3-phase 400V and raising head: the large-format combination
In a 3-phase kitchen, the ITR40 integrates frictionlessly into the existing installation: dedicated three-phase line, no intermediary single-phase socket, no phase imbalance. For kitchens whose equipment — combi oven, blast chiller, professional dishwasher — is already 3-phase, the ITR40 completes the setup with no exception.
The raising head changes the relationship to cleaning and versatility. On a fixed-head mixer, reaching the bowl requires leaning over or going around the machine. On the ITR40, you raise the head in a few seconds, remove the removable bowl, carry it to the shaping worktop. Between two batches of different types — a Neapolitan dough batch at 72% hydration followed by a drier al taglio batch — fully cleaning the bowl takes under 5 minutes instead of blocking the machine for 15-20 minutes. In a pizzeria chaining batches on a busy evening service, this operational gain is real.
The 1100 W power on 3-phase 400V at the 41 L capacity ensures stable kneading even over several consecutive batches. The 3-phase motor holds a more even operating temperature than a single-phase equivalent under prolonged load — a discreet but noticeable advantage on intensive production sessions where you chain 5-6 batches with no break.
For which establishment
The ITR40 is the mixer of 3-phase kitchens needing a large format (41 L, 25 kg/batch) with the flexibility of the raising head. A 3-phase pizzeria working several recipes per service that wants to switch dough types quickly without blocking production. A 3-phase-equipped restaurant producing both bread and pizza dough in the same day — 25 kg per batch lets you handle both needs in two sessions without being limited by capacity.
If your kitchen is single-phase 230V, the IMR40 (same price, same capacity, €2,700) is the reference. If you are 3-phase and need 2 speeds to adapt kneading by recipe, the ITR402V (41 L 3-phase 2-speed, €3,065) is the step above — €365 more for the second speed. If your production volume does not exceed 20 kg per batch, the IMR30 (32 L 3-phase, €2,595) or IMR20 (32 L single-phase, €2,190) are more suitable.

What restaurateurs ask
- Why choose the ITR40 (1 speed) over the ITR402V (2 speeds, +€365)?
- If you work a single dough recipe or if your recipes all have similar hydrations and kneading times, the single-speed ITR40 is enough. The ITR402V's 2nd speed is useful when alternating very different recipes in the same service — a classic pizza dough (55-60% hydration, fast kneading) and a Neapolitan dough (65-72% hydration, gentle incorporation). If you do not change recipe mid-service, the €365 difference is not justified.
- Is the ITR40 suitable for kneading bread dough as well as pizza dough?
- Yes — the ITR40's 41 litres knead about 25 kg of dough per batch, whether pizza, bread, focaccia or brioche. The raising head eases switching from one recipe to another: you remove the bowl with the pizza dough, replace it with the clean bowl for bread, with no need to clean the whole machine in between. That is the real operational advantage of the raising head on a dual-use mixer.
