Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment commonly ranges from 60 to 200 slices per minute per lane, depending on product type and slice thickness.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with power consumption varying based on motor size and operational load.

Slice thickness range

A typical slice thickness range for precision slicers is from 0.5mm to 50mm, adjustable to suit specific product requirements.

Product dimensions

This class of slicer is generally designed to handle product logs with a maximum cross-section of around 250mm x 120mm and lengths up to 1000mm.

Construction material

Food processing slicers are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability.

Control system

Modern units often feature servo-driven controls for precise movement and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) for recipe management.
