OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Product delivered to a feed hopper feeds onto two high speed feed belts sloping together to form a “V” cross section. A free wheeling top belt completes enclosure of the product to insure positive feed into the rotating 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 any crushing of the product. The cut slices are then discharged into a spiral chute to reduce their speed before discharge from the machine.
TYPES OF CUTS
Flat & Crinkle Slices: A wide range from 1/16 to 1-3/4" (1.6 to 44.5 mm). When using crinkle knives, it is necessary to change the stainless steel shear edge.
