The cutting edge of cheese slicing

Marel has boosted the versatility of its PolySlicer 1000 with the addition of a new interleaver that enables the machine to slice and interleave up to 700 slices a minute.

Stacks or shingles of cheese, cooked and cured meats can all be successfully sliced and interleaved, widening the appeal of the PolySlicer 1000 to meat and cheese processors of all sizes.

The machine can interleave each slice within a group or underleave a complete group in single, twin- or triple-lane operation. It will operate with both the orbital and the involute slicing blade options.

The independent cutting of paper and product provides excellent control of paper positioning and therefore product presentation, which, combined with an all-new involute high- speed blade that requires infrequent sharpening, promises high productivity with very low maintenance.

Marel says most other slicers of this type use the product blade to cut the paper, which reduces blade life, increases maintenance costs and can compromise ideal slicing conditions.
