Product

MODEL OC

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

Product is fed onto a conveyor belt which carries the product to the
slicing wheel. Knives 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. One
slice is made at a time which prevents crushing of the product. The cut
slices are then discharged from the machine.

The Urschel §Model OC specializes in crosscut bias slicing of
elongated products including: pickles, carrots, celery, rhubarb, okra,
potatoes, squash, etc. The machine features a wide selection of slice
thicknesses, continuous operation for uninterrupted production, and
simplified design for easy cleanup and maintenance. The Model OC
will accommodate products up to 2.5" (63.5 mm) in diameter or width.

If your product application is not mentioned on this page, contact your local
Urschel representative to determine the most effective solution to your size
reduction needs.
