APPLICATIONS

The Urschel Model H-A uniformly slices, strip cuts, and dices a variety
of products including peaches, pears, potatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, and
carrots. The machine features continuous operation for uninterrupted
production, and is designed for easy cleanup and maintenance.

Maximum infeed product entering the Model H-A should not exceed
5-1/2" (140 mm) in any dimension.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

Product delivered to the feed hopper continues into a rotating impeller.
Centrifugal force holds the product against the inside of the slice case
as the impeller paddles [ 1 ] carry the product past the slicing knife

[ 2 ]. An adjustable case gate at the top of the case allows the product

to move outward across the edge of the slicing knife. The distance
between the end of the case gate and the slicing knife edge determines
the slice thickness.

As the slices emerge, crosscut knives [ 3 ] move downward producing
strips. Strips move without interruption across the top surface of the
slicing knife holder into the circular knives [ 4 ] where they are cut into
cubes or other three-dimensional cuts of a selected size.
