Mecnosud Bun Divider/Rounder BDM0030

The Mecnosud BDM0030 presses, cuts and rounds 30 buns in one cycle, at 40 g to 135 g per ball from a chamber holding up to 4 kg. It is supplied with three food-grade PETG plates and stainless steel knives. It is a three-phase machine supplied without a plug.

Why operators choose the ICE-BDM0030

• All three operations in one unit — it presses, cuts and rounds. A divider that only cuts leaves you rounding thirty pieces by hand, which is where the labour actually is
• 30 balls per cycle at 40 g to 135 g — the count is fixed at 30; the ball weight follows how much dough you charge. At the top of the range that is 4 kg in one press
• Maximum chamber capacity 4 kg — and the arithmetic is consistent - 30 balls at the 135 g maximum is 4.05 kg, so the chamber is sized exactly to the job rather than oversized
• Three food-grade PETG plates supplied — part of the working fit-out, in the box rather than an accessory purchase
• Stainless steel knives — the parts that touch dough every cycle
• Three phase, no plug supplied — installation by a licensed electrician is required

Specifications

Venue suitability

The BDM0030 suits bakeries, hot-bread shops and production kitchens making dinner rolls and small buns in volume. Thirty identical balls a cycle at a weight you set is what makes a tray bake evenly. Note it is a tall machine at 1,970 mm — check ceiling and door heights before ordering.

Installation & delivery

This is a 400 V three-phase machine supplied without a plug, and it must be installed by a licensed electrician. The load is modest at 0.75 kW; the supply type is the issue, so price three-phase work before ordering if you do not have it. Dimensions are recorded width x depth x height on this model — 604 mm wide, 605 mm deep and 1,970 mm tall. That height is the figure to check against doorways and ceilings; note the axis order differs from most Mecnosud machines, which record width x height x depth. Site it near a wash-down point so the knives and plates are actually cleaned. Our data records no weight.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What size buns will it make?

Thirty at a time, from 40 g to 135 g each. The division count is fixed at 30 - the finished ball weight depends on how much dough you charge, up to the 4 kg chamber maximum. Thirty balls at 135 g is 4.05 kg, so the chamber is sized to exactly that job.

Q: How does it compare to the 15-division BDM0015A?

They cover different bun sizes rather than different volumes. This model makes 30 balls at 40 g to 135 g from a 4 kg charge; the BDM0015A makes 15 balls at 150 g to 350 g from up to 5.25 kg. If you make dinner rolls, this is the machine; if you make large buns or burger buns, that one is.

Q: Does it round the buns as well as cut them?

Yes - it presses, cuts and rounds in one unit. That matters more than it sounds: a divider that only cuts leaves thirty irregular pieces to be rounded by hand, which is where most of the labour in the job actually sits.

Q: What comes with it?

Three food-grade PETG plates and stainless steel knives. The plates are part of the working fit-out rather than accessories to buy separately.

Q: What electrical work is required?

400 V three phase at 0.75 kW, supplied without a plug, installed by a licensed electrician. The power draw is small but the supply type is not negotiable - if you do not have three phase, price that work before ordering.
