Nowicki KN330V Industrial Vacuum Bowl Cutter / Chopper
The Nowicki KN330V Vacuum Bowl Cutter, also known as a vacuum bowl chopper, is a high-capacity industrial machine designed for chopping, mixing and emulsifying meat products under vacuum.
Manufactured by Metalbud Nowicki, the KN330V features a 330-litre stainless steel bowl, high-speed cutting system and vacuum processing technology, making it particularly suitable for sausage manufacturers, meat processors and prepared food producers.
By processing ingredients under vacuum, the machine helps reduce air incorporation during chopping and mixing, supporting a more consistent product texture and uniform finished product.
With adjustable cutterhead speeds of 200–4,500 rpm, the KN330V offers flexibility for different meat processing applications, from controlled chopping and ingredient mixing through to fine emulsification.
Vacuum Processing for Improved Product Quality
One of the main advantages of the Nowicki KN330V is its ability to chop and mix ingredients under vacuum.
During conventional high-speed chopping, air can become incorporated into the mixture. Vacuum processing helps minimise this, which can be particularly beneficial when producing finely chopped sausages, pâtés and emulsified meat products.
Reducing entrapped air can help achieve a denser, more uniform product texture and improve the appearance of the finished mixture.
For food manufacturers working to consistent product specifications, vacuum chopping provides additional control over the processing environment.
330-Litre Bowl Capacity for Industrial Production
The Nowicki KN330V features a 330-litre bowl designed for industrial food processing applications.
Its capacity makes it suitable for businesses processing substantial batches of sausage meat, emulsified mixtures and other finely chopped products.
The rotating bowl and high-speed cutting knives work together to chop, mix and distribute ingredients throughout the product.
The actual working batch capacity will depend on the product, recipe, ingredient density and required processing conditions.
High-Speed Cutting and Mixing
The Nowicki KN330V features a variable-speed cutterhead operating between 200 and 4,500 rpm.
This allows operators to adjust the cutting process according to the product being manufactured.
For applications requiring ingredient mixing rather than high-speed cutting, the machine also offers reverse-direction mixing at approximately 100–300 rpm.
The bowl speed is adjustable between 2 and 20 rpm, allowing additional control over the movement of ingredients through the cutting area.
The combination of adjustable cutterhead speed, bowl rotation and vacuum processing makes the KN330V suitable for a wide range of industrial meat chopping and emulsifying applications.
Applications for the Nowicki KN330V
Sausage Manufacturing
The KN330V is suitable for producing finely chopped and emulsified sausage mixtures where consistent ingredient distribution and controlled texture are important.
Pâtés and Fine Meat Products
Vacuum chopping can help produce smooth, uniform mixtures for pâtés and other finely processed meat products.
Meat Emulsions
The adjustable cutting system allows manufacturers to process meat, fat and other ingredients to the required degree of emulsification.
Burger and Meat Product Manufacturing
Depending on the required recipe and texture, the KN330V can also be used for preparing finely chopped meat mixtures used in burgers and other processed meat products.
Prepared Food Production
The machine may also be suitable for other food mixtures requiring industrial chopping, mixing and emulsification, subject to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Stainless Steel Construction and Hygienic Design
The Nowicki KN330V is designed for demanding industrial food processing environments where hygiene and regular cleaning are essential.
Its stainless steel construction and polished product-contact surfaces are intended to support hygienic processing and straightforward cleaning.
The machine's industrial design incorporates hydraulically operated covers and product-handling arrangements, helping operators manage the cutting process and access the machine for routine cleaning and maintenance.

Nowicki KN330V vs KN550V – What's the Difference?
Both the Nowicki KN330V and KN550V are industrial vacuum bowl cutters designed for large-scale chopping, mixing and emulsification.
The machines share the same basic processing principle, using a rotating bowl, high-speed cutting knives and vacuum technology to produce consistent meat mixtures.
The most significant difference is their bowl capacity.
The Nowicki KN330V features a 330-litre bowl, making it suitable for manufacturers requiring substantial batch capacity while maintaining flexibility for different recipes and production runs.
The larger Nowicki KN550V offers a 550-litre bowl, providing additional capacity for businesses processing larger batches of the same product.
There are also differences in cutting speed.
The KN330V offers cutterhead speeds of 200–4,500 rpm, compared with 100–3,800 rpm on the KN550V.
The KN330V also features a bowl speed range of 2–20 rpm, compared with 2–15 rpm on the KN550V.
The larger KN550V requires more installation space and has a higher overall machine weight.
Which model should you choose?
The KN330V is an excellent choice for industrial meat processors requiring vacuum chopping and emulsification with a 330-litre bowl capacity.
The KN550V is better suited to manufacturers requiring larger batch sizes and greater overall production capacity, provided that the larger machine is appropriate for the products and production process.
The most suitable machine will depend on batch quantities, processing time, product formulation and available installation space.
