Italian-made Famag spiral mixers are world renowned for strength, quality, and outstanding baking results. Now they’re available in the U.S. for the first time, with industrial-duty motors designed specifically for U.S. voltage. As Famag's exclusive importer, Pleasant Hill Grain is proud to offer these high performance mixers!
Engineered expressly for ideal dough-mixing and kneading results, Famag spiral mixers feature a spiral agitator that remains stationary while the bowl rotates, bringing the dough to the stainless steel dough hook with each revolution. This action is exceptionally thorough and uniform, while avoiding both overworking and overheating of the dough. The spiral dough hook on the IM-40 operates at 110-270 RPM. Click here for the approximate RPM at each speed.
Thanks to the spiral hook’s action, mixtures that overtax other designs—such as pizza or bagel dough—are handled easily, quickly and efficiently in the Famag spiral dough mixer. Doughs of all kinds, from heavy to high-hydration artisan doughs, come out smooth, silky and perfectly developed.
Famag mixers feature heavy duty chain overhead drive, with a high torque dual-belt final drive. FAG sealed industrial ball bearings are used for exceptionally long life. Construction is robust throughout, as attested to by the mixer’s substantial 265 lb. weight. Epoxy powder coating over a steel cabinet protects the handsome appearance of your Famag mixer.
Famag's IM-40 mixes and kneads up to 83 lbs. (38 kg) of dough at 60% hydration (or more at a higher hydration), but also handles batches as small as 9.9 lbs. (4.5 kg) equally as well. In terms of flour capacity, this is 55 lbs. (25 kg) down to 6.6 lbs. (3 kg). Capacity of the stainless steel bowl is 43 quarts (41L).

Speed Based on Hydration
Variable speed mixers have a speed dial marked from 1-10. For normal dough with a hydration of 55-65%, the mixer can be operated at speeds 1 through 5. With 65-75% hydration, at speeds 1 through 6-7, and with dough over 75% hydration, at speeds 1 through 8-10. These are general guidelines, as dough characteristics vary. If mixing dough that's less than 60% hydration, it's recommended to only fill the bowl to 50% capacity, and mix for only 10 minutes at a time; judgment must be exercised in any case, to avoid kneading dough so dry it’s outside of normal baking parameters, regardless of the hydration numbers. With dough over 60% hydration, dough can be mixed for up to 20-25 minutes before the mixer should be turned off for about 40 minutes.
Whether you’re a commercial user or a dedicated home enthusiast who appreciates the worth of old-world quality, Famag offers exceptional value as well as performance.

Just bought the Im-40 two months ago for our bakery, very impressed. For reference on output, we do about 60 to 80 2 lb. loaves every day, 5 days a week. Never heats up the dough like a planetary and mixes in additions such as salt, nuts, and seeds very evenly. Seems to keep dough strength up better than a planetary mixer, especially helpful for more whole grain doughs. One thing to keep in mind is all these mixers from Haussler and Famag are relatively short, top is about table height 30" so to clean you have to kneel down (as you would really have to do with any spiral mixer, just more with these ones). Very nice quality parts, and the workmanship is obviously very high. I really appreciate the manual as well as timer setting to drive the bowl, very handy. We still haven't quite filled it to its weight max yet, but I'm sure it could handle it with ease.
