The remnant holder for the 200 mm and 400 mm carriage has its own clamping device
which can be swiveled up and stopped in place in order to insert the product (not possible
for 600 mm).
The depositing system consists of a chain frame with transport chain, feed roller with guide
cam as well as depositing arm and depositing table incl. paper holder.
The machine and motor housing, gauge plate and blade guard are made of anodized cast
aluminum, the carriage guide is made of coated cast aluminum and the drive housing of
lacquered cast aluminum.
The carriage plate is made of stainless steel plate.
The back panel is composed of transparent plastic.
All materials used in the food zone and in the working area comply with the food hygiene
regulations.
Work place-related emission noise level value
L
pHA
= 61 dB (A). The value takes into consideration an instable measuring of 3 dB.

Installation of power supply provided by customer
The installation of the power supply to connect our machines must be carried out in accordance with country-specific regulations and rules derived thereof. These essentially include the recommendations of at least one of the following commissions:
– International Electro-technical Commission (IEC)
– European Committee for Electro-technical Standardization (CENELEC)
The machine has been built according to Protection Type I and has to be connected to the
protective conductor.
Measures for suppressing interference:
With severely contaminated mains supplies (e.g. when "thyristor-controlled systems" are
used) measures must be taken on-site to suppress interferences, e.g.:
– A separate supply line must be planned for Bizerba machines
– In problem cases, install capacitive decoupled isolating transformers or other sup-
pressors into the supply mains prior to Bizerba machines
