4.3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The slicing machine has been designed and
made to offer maximum safety when in use,
during cleaning and ordinary maintenance;
maximum hygiene from the use of inoxidisable
materials or adequately protected against
oxidisation together with an attentive design
of all the parts that come into contact with
food; maximum cutting precision and capacity
together with sturdiness and reliability of the
structure.
The machine is essentially made up of a base
that holds a circular blade that is vertically
mounted and a sliding carriage on bars, parallel
to the cutting edge of the blade, which in turn
holds a food plate.
The food plate is made up of a base plate and
an overplate which slides at right angles to
the edge of the blade for slicing the food; the
overplate also has an appropriate selfstopping
device, which can be regulated in height, to
keep the product in its proper place during
cutting operations (food press).
Carriage movement and blade rotation are
completely manual; by activating rotation of the
flywheel with the special handle the carriage
is put into motion and at the same time with a
chain transmission the blade is turned.
The product is cut during the forward movement
of the carriage, parallel to the blade; the
thickness of the slice is regulated by a mechanical
device which is automatically started every time
the carriage comes back, making the sliding
overplate transversally towards the blade,
with a value which is pre-determined by the
graduated handwheel.
All the components of the machine are made
of a light aluminium alloy, in stainless steel and
plastic for food products as according to the
sanitary regulations in force.
The machine has a sharpener which is extremely
easy and safe to use.
The food plate, sharpener and blade cover can
be removed for cleaning.
