FAM Mantis V Belt slicer

• Slicing a variety of vegetables and fruits into uniform shapes (e.g., potato chips, carrot sticks, onion rings).
• Processing leafy vegetables for salads or prepared meal components.
• Preparing ingredients for frozen food production.
• Creating consistent cuts for snack foods and convenience meals.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from 2,000 kg/hour up to 7,000 kg/hour, depending on the product and desired cut.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, suitable for industrial environments.

Construction material

Most industrial slicers, including the Mantis V Belt Slicer, are constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability in food processing environments.

Cutting mechanism

This equipment typically utilises a cutting wheel, which can hold a varying number of knives (e.g., 25 knives), allowing for different slice thicknesses and product types.

Controls

Modern units commonly feature HMI touchscreen controls for precise adjustment of cutting parameters and operational monitoring.

Mobility

Many industrial slicers are designed to be mobile, often fitted with castors, to facilitate cleaning and flexible plant layout.
