APPLICATIONS
The ‡patented TranSlicer 2000® Cutter by Urschel Laboratories
uniformly slices with precision at high capacities and is ideally suited
for elongated products. Products effectively cut on the machine include
potatoes, plantain, celery, asparagus, beans, peppers, lettuce, bread
sticks, carrots, zucchini, chicken tenders, wieners, citrus peel, extruded
products, pickles, pepperoni, and many other applications.
The TranSlicer 2000 accepts rm products up to 4" (101.6 mm) in
diameter and leafy-type, more compressible products up to 6" (152.4
mm) in diameter.
Three interchangeable stainless steel cutting wheel styles are possible
for maximum versatility: slicing wheel, ¥patented MicroSlice® wheel, and
julienne wheel. The TranSlicer 2000 offers simplied design with hinged
and sliding access panels which ease maintenance and cleaning. The
machine features continuous operation for uninterrupted production.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Product is delivered onto two high speed feed belts [ 1 ] sloping together
to form a “V” shaped feed trough. The belts are synchronized with the
rotating slicing wheel [ 2 ] to ensure proper advance of product per
revolution of the wheel. Knives [ 3 ] under tension serve as spokes and
support the rim of the slicing wheel. The knives are slightly twisted to create
a uniform pitch from the hub to the rim. Knife pitch serves to pull product
through the slicing wheel and produce a precise slice thickness. Optional
free wheeling or motorized top belts are available if more positive feeding
is needed. One slice is made at a time which prevents any crushing of the
product. The cut slices are then released into a hinged, discharge chute to
reduce their speed before exiting the machine.
TYPES OF CUTS
SLICING WHEELS
Flat & Crinkle Slices: 1/32 to 3" (.8 to 76.2 mm) in thick-
ness Crinkle slices have 4-2/3 waves per inch and with
a crinkle depth of 1/16" (1.6 mm). Slicing wheels can
be converted to crinkle slicing by replacing the straight
knives with crinkle knives. A different shear edge must
also be used for crinkle slicing.
JULIENNE WHEELS: Julienne cuts ranging from 1/2 x
1/2" (12.7 x 12.7 mm) to 2 x 2" (50.8 x 50.8 mm) are
produced by using julienne knives on the slicing wheel.
