Butter + Cheese Cutter

• Reducing large blocks of cheese into smaller, manageable loaves for further processing in dairies or food manufacturing.
• Portioning bulk butter blocks into smaller units for packaging or ingredient preparation.
• Preparing raw material for shredding, dicing, or melting processes in food production lines.
• Use in industrial bakeries or catering suppliers requiring portioned dairy fats.

Typical throughput

Units of this class commonly achieve throughputs of approximately 1 block per minute, equating to around 1200 kg per hour, depending on block size and material.

Suitable feed block dimensions

This type of equipment is typically designed to accept blocks up to 400 x 300 x 300 mm.

Typical feed block weight

Commonly handles cheese blocks of 20 kg and butter blocks of 25 kg.

Power supply

For industrial equipment of this nature, a 3-phase electrical supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz) is typically required.

Construction material

Units in this category are generally constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

Operation

Often features semi-automatic or automatic operation, requiring minimal operator intervention once loaded.

• What types of products can this machine cut?

  This category of machine is primarily designed for cutting semi-firm to firm blocks of dairy products such as cheddar cheese and butter. Suitability for other products should be confirmed with the seller.

• Is this machine easy to clean?

• What maintenance is typically required?

• Can the output loaf size be adjusted?

• What safety features are commonly included?

Food processing slicers are considered reliable workhorses in commercial kitchens and production facilities. Buyers typically value consistent blade sharpness, robust construction, and ease of cleaning. When purchasing used models, it is important to inspect blade condition carefully, verify motor functionality, and check safety guards remain intact. Industry sentiment favours machines from established manufacturers known for durability. Common strengths include uniform slicing precision, high throughput capacity, and relatively straightforward maintenance. Buyers should confirm spare parts availability before purchase.
