The ITR50 spiral dough mixer is the 48-litre 3-phase 400V model of the raising-head range — the largest format in the series before the 2-speed ITR502V (€3,185). With 48 litres of bowl and 1500 W of power, the ITR50 produces about 30 kg of dough per batch, i.e. 5 kg more than the ITR40 (41 L, €2,700) for only €120 difference. For a 3-phase kitchen whose production volume approaches or exceeds the limits of a 41 L, the ITR50 is the natural step sideways: same 3-phase electrical installation, same raising head, same removable bowl, but 7 extra litres that change the batch rhythm.
48 L + 3-phase 400V: for intensive raising-head production
In a 3-phase pizzeria running at full pace on a Friday or Saturday evening, mixer capacity quickly becomes the bottleneck. The 41 L ITR40 (25 kg/batch) may need 3 batches for an 80-100 pizza service, where the 48 L ITR50 (30 kg/batch) cuts that to 2. Over the length of a service, this difference means fewer interruptions, less time between batches and a better-distributed workload for the bakery or pizza manager.
The ITR50's 1500 W power (versus 1100 W for the ITR40) is sized for the 48 L capacity: effortless start even on doughs at 55-60% hydration in large quantity, speed hold over several consecutive batches. On 3-phase 400V, motor-speed stability under prolonged load is superior to a single-phase equivalent at the same nominal power — a direct advantage on production sessions stretching over 4-5 hours.
The ITR50's raising head keeps the range's advantages for a large-volume format: pivot in a few seconds to access the bowl, removable bowl to carry the 30 kg of dough straight to the shaping station. On a fixed-head mixer of the same capacity, handling 30 kg means working the dough in the bowl or transferring it manually — a less practical and more time-consuming operation.
For which establishment
The ITR50 is the mixer of 3-phase kitchens whose production volume justifies the 48 L capacity. A high-throughput pizzeria (100+ pizzas/service) wanting to cut the number of batches per service without moving to an even bulkier mixer. A 3-phase restaurant producing its bread daily at scale — 30 kg/batch lets you handle the bread of an 80-cover restaurant in a single session.
If your kitchen is single-phase 230V and you need 48 L, the IBT (fixed-head) or IRV50 (variable-speed) models are the single-phase references at this format. If you are 3-phase and need 2 speeds to adapt kneading to several recipes, the ITR502V (48 L 3-phase 2-speed, €3,185) is the model above — €365 more for the second speed.

What restaurateurs ask
- Is it better to take the ITR50 (48 L, €2,820) or the ITR40 (41 L, €2,700) for a 60-70 seat pizzeria?
- For a 60-70 seat pizzeria at full pace (80-100 pizzas/service), the 41 L ITR40 (25 kg/batch) is often enough with 3 batches per service. The 48 L ITR50 (30 kg/batch) cuts that to 2 batches — a real difference in production rhythm. At €120 difference, moving to the 48 L is justified as soon as you anticipate rising throughput or want to work with fewer batches per service. For a smaller pizzeria (40-50 seats, 50-70 pizzas/service), the ITR40 is enough.
- Does the ITR50's raising head withstand the load of 30 kg of dough over the long term?
- Yes — the raising-head mechanism is designed for the weight of the full bowl. On the ITR50, the 48 L bowl containing 30 kg of dough stays within the mechanical limits set by the manufacturer. In practice, raising-head mixers of equivalent capacity run in professional catering for 10 to 15 years with no mechanical incident on the head, provided you keep the pivot zones clean and carry out an annual check of the mechanical play.
