Dough Rollers and Rounders

A dough roller machine is kitchen equipment used to flatten and shape dough for various baked goods such as pastries, pasta, and pizza. This machine is ideal for commercial kitchens that require high volume production of baked goods. It is a time-saving tool that helps bakers and chefs to uniformly flatten the dough to a desired thickness without putting in too much manual labour.

Two common types of dough machines are dough sheeters and dough rollers. While they may seem similar, there are some key differences between the two. Dough sheeters specialise in rolling out pastry dough and other types of dough that require a more delicate touch. They can produce sheets of dough that are thinner and more consistent than those produced by a dough roller. This makes them more suitable for delicate pastries and baked goods that require precision and consistent thickness. Dough rollers, on the other hand, are better suited for denser doughs like pizza dough or bread dough, which require a more heavy-duty approach.

Prices can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on factors like the brand, model, features, and capacity. At Restaurant Equipment Online, we have dough rollers starting as low as $1400 and going up as high as $12,750 and more. Smaller, entry-level models tend to be more affordable, while larger, high-capacity machines with advanced features can be more expensive.

Investing in a dough roller machine can take your commercial kitchen to the next level, but selecting the right one requires thoughtful consideration. To ensure your culinary endeavours are met with efficiency and precision, take heed of the following:

• Size and capacity: The size of the machine is important to consider, as it needs to fit in your kitchen and be able to handle the volume of dough you need to process. Our options range from 420 to 638 mm wide, 355 to 735 mm deep, and 350 to 1986 mm high, ensuring that you can find a machine that fits perfectly in your commercial kitchen without sacrificing functionality.
  One of our larger models is the AG Italian Dough Roller, which boasts a powerful 0.75 kW motor and can roll the dough up to 40cm in diameter. On the other hand, the Mecnosud Single Dough Roller is one of our smallest models, perfect for smaller kitchens or those with limited space. Despite its size, it can still roll the dough up to 30cm in diameter and is made from durable materials for long-lasting use. With our variety of sizes and capacity options, you can find the perfect dough roller machine to fit your specific kitchen needs.
• Material: Our dough roller machines are meticulously crafted using premium food-safe stainless steel, known for its durability and resistance to rust. This high-quality material ensures that the machines remain robust and unaffected by contact with flour or dough. Additionally, our dough roller machines are equipped with sturdy, high-density nylon rollers. These rollers are designed to withstand the pressure and strain of rolling dough, providing smooth and consistent results. The combination of food-safe stainless steel and high-density nylon rollers guarantees long-lasting performance, reliability, and hygienic operation in commercial kitchen environments. Rest assured, our dough roller machines are built to deliver exceptional performance and endure the demands of regular use.
• Thickness adjustment: Look for a machine with adjustable thickness settings to accommodate various dough types and recipes. The Bakermax Pizza Dough Roller, a top-tier commercial dough roller machine in our collection, comes with an adjustable thickness feature that sets it apart from other dough rollers. The thickness and diameter of the disc can be customised to your specific needs, with the capability of rolling dough as thin as 0mm up to 4mm. This feature makes it easy for commercial kitchens to create a variety of pizza bases, including thin-crust and deep-dish options. 
• Ease of cleaning: Cleaning is an essential aspect to consider when purchasing a dough roller machine for your commercial kitchen. Our machines have a smooth and sleek design that makes them easy to clean with just a simple wipe-down using a damp cloth. The food-grade Teflon belt is a key component that makes cleaning even more effortless, as it ensures that dough and other ingredients don't stick to the surface. In addition to the Teflon belt, the frame and other parts of our machines are made from high-quality materials that are resistant to rust and corrosion. 
• Type of rollers: When it comes to dough roller machines, the type of rollers used plays a significant role in determining the efficiency and quality of the dough. There are two main types of rollers available: manual and automatic.
  Manual rollers are typically suitable for small-scale operations where manual labour is involved. These rollers require the operator to feed the dough into the machine and manually adjust the thickness settings. Manual rollers offer more control over the rolling process but may be more time-consuming and labour-intensive.
  On the other hand, automatic rollers are designed for large-scale production and offer increased efficiency. These rollers are equipped with motorized mechanisms that automatically feed the dough and adjust the thickness settings. Automatic rollers are ideal for high-volume environments where consistent and efficient dough rolling is required, reducing labour costs and increasing productivity.
  For example, our semi-automatic bun divider machine is designed specifically for producing uniform bun sizes. It simplifies the process of dividing the dough into equal portions, ensuring consistency and saving time in bun production. Additionally, our automatic pizza dough rounder is specifically engineered to provide efficient and accurate rounding of pizza dough, streamlining the pizza-making process and ensuring consistent results.
  Choosing the appropriate type of roller, whether manual or automatic, depends on the scale and specific requirements of your operation. Our range of dough roller machines caters to various needs, providing options that can enhance productivity and reduce labour costs in commercial kitchen environments.

A dough roller machine operates by taking a portion of dough and passing it through two sets of rollers. The dough is gradually flattened and stretched as it moves between the rollers, resulting in the desired thickness. The machine typically features adjustable rollers, allowing you to select the precise thickness required for your specific baked goods. Once the dough has been properly rolled out, it is ready for further processing or baking, depending on your recipe or intended use. The dough roller machine streamlines the process of flattening and stretching the dough, saving time and effort in a commercial kitchen setting.

The amount of time it takes to roll and round your dough will depend on the machine and the type of dough you are using. It can take anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes.
