Heavy Duty Professional Spiral Mixers 130L - FS130M

The Yasaki FS130M is a 130 litre spiral mixer taking up to 50 kg of flour, with two motors — one driving the bowl and one the hook — and two speeds at 150 and 200 rpm. It weighs 370 kg. Its recorded electrical specification is 415 V, 5.5 kW, three phase, which conflicts with the description text; that is set out below and is the first thing to resolve before ordering.

Why operators choose the FS130M

• Two motors - one for the bowl, one for the hook — separate drives rather than one motor and a gearbox, so the bowl and the tool run independently. The 35 L, 40 L and 54 L models in this range do not have this
• 130 litre bowl, 50 kg maximum flour — the flour rating is what the drive is rated against; the bowl volume is what physically fits
• Recorded as 415 V three phase - but the description says single phase — set out in the installation section. Do not price wiring from this page
• Two speeds at 150 and 200 rpm — a slow speed to bring the dough together and a fast speed to develop it. A single-speed mixer forces a compromise between the two, and on bread dough that shows in the crumb
• Stainless steel bowl, hook and shaft — the three parts that touch dough all day. Stainless on all three is the difference between a machine that survives daily wash-down and one that pits
• Schneider contactor — a named-brand electrical component rather than an unspecified one - it is the part that switches the motor thousands of times and the usual first failure on a cheap mixer
• Digital display — speed and operation read rather than guessed
• Overheat protector — a spiral mixer working stiff dough draws hard. Thermal protection is what stops an overloaded batch becoming a motor replacement
• Stainless steel cover with safety guard — the guard is interlocked into the machine's operation, not an afterthought
• Heavy-duty castors — the machine can be rolled out for cleaning behind it, which on a floor-standing mixer is the difference between that happening and not
• Fixed head — the bowl and head do not tilt. Simpler and more rigid than a tilting design, at the cost of a more awkward unload

Specifications

Venue suitability

The FS130M suits production bakeries mixing 50 kg flour batches. At 370 kg with twin motors it is a fixed installation rather than a machine that moves around, and the supply question below needs answering before it is ordered.

Installation & delivery

The recorded electrical specification and the product description disagree, and the difference is expensive. The power data for this machine reads 415 V, 5.5 kW, 3~N — three phase, while the description text states "single phase". That wording appears word-for-word on every model in this range including the 35 litre machine, so it reads as boilerplate rather than a specification. We have published the recorded electrical figures because they are the specific ones, but do not book electrical work from this page — ask us to confirm the supply with the supplier first. Three-phase installation can cost more than a small mixer.

Dimensions are recorded width x depth x height: 730 x 1160 x 1380 mm, and it weighs 370 kg — check floor loading and the delivery route, and expect to need equipment to move it. It packs at 810 x 1,220 x 1,570 mm.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Is this machine single phase or three phase?

Our records disagree, and we would rather say so than pick one. The electrical data reads 415 V, 5.5 kW, 3~N, which is three phase. The description says 'single phase' - but that identical sentence appears on every model in this range including the 35 litre machine, so it reads as copied boilerplate. We have published the specific recorded figures. Ask us to confirm with the supplier before booking electrical work: the difference between a single-phase connection and a three-phase installation is substantial.

Q: What do the two motors do?

One drives the bowl, one drives the hook, rather than a single motor turning both through a gearbox. Independent drives let each run at its own speed, which is what matters on large batches. The three smallest models in this range do not have it.

Q: How much dough will it make?

Up to 50 kg of flour per batch in a 130 litre bowl. Plan from the flour rating - that is what the drive is rated against, whereas bowl volume only describes what fits.

Q: How heavy is it and can my floor take it?

370 kg empty, before any dough goes in. With a full bowl you are well over half a tonne concentrated in one spot. On an upper floor or a timber floor that is worth checking, and you will need equipment to position it.

Q: Why two speeds?

Slow to bring the ingredients together, fast to develop the gluten - 150 rpm and 200 rpm. On a production machine that control is what lets one mixer handle both enriched and lean doughs.
