Commercial Precise Table Dough Sheeter

Product Overview

The GLEAD Table Dough Sheeter GL-520 bridges the gap between compact countertop models and industrial floor units, making it ideal for mid-volume operations like pizzerias, patisseries, and bakery cafés. Designed to mount on standard worktables (60–90cm width), it eliminates the need for extra floor space while delivering 80% of the throughput of industrial sheeters. With a 60–80cm roller width, 0.1–30mm thickness range, and 15–80kg/hour dough processing capacity, it produces uniform sheets for pizza crusts, croissants, flatbreads, and more. Its commercial-grade stainless steel build, safety features, and optional upgrades make it a scalable choice for businesses ready to boost efficiency without expanding their kitchen footprint.

Key Features & Technical Specs

High-Capacity, Consistent Performance

Motorized Rollers & Conveyor: Dual stainless steel rollers (adjustable speed) and a motorized belt ensure semi-continuous workflow—feed dough manually, and receive evenly rolled sheets ready for cutting or filling. The adjustable roller speed lets users match the machine’s pace to their workflow: faster for high-volume times (e.g., pizza lunch rushes) and slower for delicate doughs (e.g., puff pastry).

Precision Thickness Control: Manual dial (or optional digital display with memory presets) allows for exact thickness adjustments, critical for laminated pastries (thin layers) or thick pizza crusts. The 0.1–30mm range covers almost all dough needs—from 0.1mm for phyllo dough to 30mm for thick flatbreads—ensuring consistency across every batch.

Durable & Hygienic Build

Full Stainless Steel Construction: Frame and rollers are NSF-certified, meaning they meet strict food safety standards for commercial use. Stainless steel is corrosion-resistant, easy to sanitize, and withstands daily cleaning with commercial-grade cleaners, making it ideal for busy kitchens where hygiene is a top priority.

Stable Design: Weighs 50–90kg for stability during operation, even when processing 80kg of dough per hour. The machine’s base is designed to fit securely on standard worktables, with no risk of tipping—important for kitchens where staff are moving quickly around the workspace.

Safety & Convenience

Emergency Stop Button: Immediately shuts down the machine in case of emergencies (e.g., dough getting stuck or a staff member’s hand near the rollers), providing an extra layer of safety in fast-paced kitchens. The button is large and prominently located, so it’s easy to access quickly.

Tool-Free Maintenance: Rollers can be removed without tools for deep cleaning, saving time on routine upkeep. This is especially useful for patisseries that switch between sweet and savory doughs, as it allows for thorough cleaning to prevent flavor transfer.

Optional Upgrades: Automatic flour dusting system (prevents dough from sticking to rollers, reducing waste), extended output conveyor (for longer dough sheets, ideal for large pizza crusts), and casters (for workstation mobility, letting users move the sheeter to different parts of the kitchen as needed).

Ideal Applications

Pizzerias

Pizzerias with medium-volume sales (e.g., 50–100 pizzas per day) need a sheeter that balances speed and consistency—and the GL-520 is perfectly suited for this. During peak lunch or dinner rushes, the sheeter’s 15–80kg/hour capacity ensures there’s always enough rolled dough for pizza bases, eliminating delays that can frustrate customers. The precision thickness control lets pizzerias offer different crust styles: thin crust (2–3mm), regular crust (5–7mm), or thick crust (10–12mm), expanding their menu to appeal to more customers. The sheeter’s table-mount design saves valuable floor space, which is often used for additional seating or storage in pizzerias. For pizzerias that offer takeout or delivery, the uniform crust thickness ensures every pizza cooks evenly, so customers get the same quality whether they eat in or take out. The optional automatic flour dusting system is also a plus, as it prevents dough from sticking to the rollers—reducing waste and ensuring each crust is smooth and intact.

Patisseries

Patisseries rely on precise dough handling to create delicate pastries like croissants, puff pastry, and tarts—and the GL-520’s features are tailored to these needs. Laminated pastries require extremely even dough sheets to ensure the butter layers are consistent, which is why the sheeter’s 0.1mm thickness precision is critical. For example, croissant dough needs to be rolled to 2mm thickness for the final layer, and the GL-520 delivers this consistency every time, resulting in perfectly flaky croissants. The sheeter’s gentle rolling action preserves the delicate butter layers, which can be damaged by hand-rolling or rough industrial sheeters. The tool-free roller removal makes it easy to clean the machine between batches, which is essential for patisseries that make both sweet (e.g., chocolate croissants) and savory (e.g., cheese tarts) pastries—preventing flavor transfer. The table-mount design also fits into the compact layouts of most patisseries, where counter space is used for assembling pastries and displaying finished products.

Ethnic Restaurants

Ethnic restaurants that serve dishes requiring fresh dough (e.g., Indian roti, Mexican tortillas, Chinese dumpling wrappers) benefit from the GL-520’s versatility and speed. For an Indian restaurant serving roti, the sheeter can roll dough to 1–2mm thickness, producing 15–20 rotis per hour—enough to keep up with dinner service. The uniform thickness ensures each roti cooks evenly on a tawa (flat griddle), with no burnt spots or undercooked areas. For a Mexican restaurant making tortillas, the sheeter’s 60–80cm roller width can handle larger dough batches, producing multiple tortillas at once. The motorized conveyor reduces manual effort, which is helpful for restaurants with small staffs. The sheeter’s stainless steel construction is easy to clean, which is important for restaurants that need to meet strict health department standards. Additionally, the machine’s ability to handle stiff doughs (e.g., roti dough) without straining ensures it can keep up with the demands of busy ethnic restaurants.

Bakery Cafés

Bakery cafés that serve fresh bread, sandwiches, and pastries need a sheeter that can handle a variety of dough types—and the GL-520 fits this bill. For making sandwich bread dough, the sheeter can roll dough to 5–10mm thickness, which is then shaped into loaves— the uniform thickness ensures the bread bakes evenly, with a consistent crust and crumb. For making pie crusts or quiche shells, the sheeter’s adjustable thickness lets café staff create thin (3mm) or thick (5mm) crusts, depending on customer preference. The sheeter’s 15–80kg/hour capacity is perfect for bakery cafés, which typically serve 50–100 customers per day—enough to handle morning pastry rushes and afternoon sandwich orders. The table-mount design saves floor space, which is often used for café seating or display cases. The optional casters are useful for bakery cafés that have flexible kitchen layouts—staff can move the sheeter to different workstations depending on the day’s menu (e.g., near the oven for bread dough, near the prep table for pastry dough).

FAQ

What voltage does the GL-520 use?

The GL-520 operates on either 110V or 220V, with a 750W–1.5kW motor—options to match regional electrical systems. This flexibility makes it suitable for businesses in North America (110V), Europe (220V), and other regions around the world. It’s important to confirm the voltage of your kitchen’s electrical system before purchasing, as using the wrong voltage can damage the motor.

How much space does it need on a worktable?

The GL-520 has dimensions of H: 40–60cm × W: 70–90cm × D: 60cm, which fits on standard commercial worktables (most of which are 60–90cm wide and 70–90cm deep). The machine’s base is designed to distribute weight evenly, so it doesn’t require a reinforced worktable—any sturdy commercial-grade table (e.g., stainless steel, wood with a metal top) can support it. This space efficiency is a key advantage for businesses with small kitchens, as it eliminates the need for a dedicated floor unit.

Can it handle stiff doughs (e.g., bread dough)?

Yes! The GL-520’s heavy-duty motor and durable stainless steel rollers are specifically designed to process stiff doughs, such as bread dough or roti dough. Stiff doughs require more pressure to roll, but the machine’s motor provides enough torque to handle them without slowing down or straining.
