How to choose a slicer for cutting

When buying a slicer for cutting deli products, decide between a manual, semi- and automatic device. The first option is suitable for use at home or a small cafe. A semi-automatic slicer is suitable for fast food establishments and large restaurants. The third type of slicer is ideal for businesses where a large number of products are shredded daily. Other selection criteria:

  • Power. The speed of rotation of the knife, the performance of the device depends on this parameter. Household slicers for cutting products have a power in the range of 80-200 watts. For effective work at home, 100 watts is enough.
  • Disc knife. For its manufacture using ceramics or stainless steel. The latter option is more common. The sharpening of the product can be straight or wavy, but the second type of disc is able to cut through a wide range of products, for example, fresh bread.
  • Body material. Many buyers prefer metal slicers, despite their higher cost. Although there are slicers with a plastic case, which are almost as strong as their metal counterparts in terms of strength. In general, the material does not affect the quality of work, but the durability of the device depends on it.
  • Product cutting thickness. The standard range is considered to be 1-17 mm. For expensive slicers, it reaches 0.5-23 mm.
  • Useful options. Useful solutions include a folding design, a tray for sliced ​​​​food, a protective cover for the disc, rubber feet, and a power-on lock button.

An ordinary kitchen knife cannot always cut food as smoothly as circumstances require. It is in these cases that a slicer comes to the rescue, which has been presented on the domestic market for more than a decade. kitchen appliances. This unit is irreplaceable at catering establishments, cafe, restaurants and supermarkets.

A slicer is essentially a slicer. This device is used to quickly cut products into perfectly even slices. The device works with almost all dense products that can be cut with an ordinary knife, for example, with sausages and meat products, cheeses, fish, vegetables and bread. The output will be pieces of equal thickness, with a perfect cut due to sharp thin blades. The thickness of the slices usually varies between 1-16 mm. This device is able to cut a standard stick of sausage in 3-4 minutes, manually this is done in at least 7-10 minutes. In addition, even the most experienced chef can hardly make the slices as even and uniform as the equipment.

Technically, a slicer is a combination circular knife for cutting products and carriage, which is safe for the operator, brings these products to the knife. All this is installed on a single platform. After each cut slice, the carriage returns to its original position, the product is pressed more tightly against the working surface, and then the procedure is repeated. Sometimes the product is immediately installed too tightly to provide clamping force. In manual devices, the product is moved directly by the operator.

Main advantages

The gadget has a number of advantages over its counterparts. The first thing to pay attention to is high degree of household safety. The knife of the device is protected by a special casing, which allows you not to be afraid of injury during use. You won’t be able to cut yourself thanks to the successful design of the pushers, and besides, the device cannot be turned on by accident.

Another significant advantage is high degree of performance. Where under normal conditions, wielding a knife, you would have to spend quite a lot of time cutting vegetables, fruits and meat using a slicer-slicer, the same operation will take much less time.

Slicer for cutting has adjustable slicing width. The maximum is up to 17 mm, and the minimum varies from 2 to 3 mm, depending on the device and its purpose. Different manufacturers offer their own cutting width solutions, for example, some models come with additional blades. Thus, at home, it is possible to quickly and safely cut not only baking, but also solid meat, vegetables and fruits.

Slicer classification

Although most of these devices are professional equipment for narrow purposes, their choice in the market of technology is great. It will be easier to choose a slicer for food production or as a commercial equipment, knowing what they are like and how they differ from each other.

  1. According to the location of the circular knife, there are vertical (the knife stands straight in them, at an angle of 90 degrees to the table surface) and gravitational (the knife seems to be littered at a small angle).
  2. According to the method of control and supply of the product to the cutting edge, there are manual, semi-automatic and automatic devices.
  3. By purpose, slicers can be universal (they often have a wavy disk, and they are quite expensive) and specialized, for example, meat or cheese.

Below is detailed information on each type of device.

By knife position

Slicers are vertical and gravity. In the first type, the knife stands perpendicular to the horizon line. In gravitational devices, the angle is less than 90 degrees, the table with the knife is, as it were, littered on its side, due to which the cut slices fall on the food tray under gravity, they do not need to be “accepted” manually.

The tilt angle is indicated in the documentation for a specific device, and before buying it can be checked with the seller or on the official website of the manufacturer.

By way of management

A variety of the device, which is the most popular today, is called automatic slicer. Its functioning does not require any additional manipulations. The product to be divided into slices is placed in a special movable compartment and fixed there with the help of reliable clamps. Then you just need to press a button, and the gadget will do the rest of the work on its own. Electric cutting is most used in catering, shop kitchens, hot shops, etc.

The main difference semi-automatic slicer is the manipulation of the movable compartment (carriage), which must be performed manually. Cutting in automatic mode is carried out by a knife hidden behind a reliable casing. Such a device can be seen in small cafes or trading floors when tasting meat products, where quick cutting of goods is required.

The latest type of slicer can come in handy in any kitchen. Most manual slicer resembles the most ordinary grater. True, there are several design differences, such as a different arrangement and structure of the blades, etc. In addition, not everything can be cut with such a device. For example, it will be quite difficult to cut a meat delicacy or fish with a manual slicer.

By appointment

Slicers can be generic, like those used in supermarkets. And there are specialized, for specific products. Such devices are usually installed in production.

Depending on the product that the appliance is working with, it may have additional attachments, design differences, or its blades may be made of different materials. For example, for cutting cheese, the discs have a special Teflon coating so that the slices do not stick in it. The bread knife has serrations so that the product does not crumble during cutting. Fish slicers are equipped with a carriage that brings raw materials at a certain angle.

How to choose the right slicer

The first thing to decide for yourself is purpose of the device. In large industries, for example, in restaurants with high traffic, even small, but specialized slicers are installed. A specialized one is also suitable for a store, because only sausages and cheese of hard and semi-hard varieties are cut there. Narrow profile slicers are usually cheaper.

An important issue is the type of disc cutter that is installed on the device. The material from which the cutting tool is made also matters. Good steel, reliable, high-quality coatings - all this will extend the life of the device between sharpening and allow it to cut slices as thin as possible. Usually the size of the disc is 22-35 cm, according to statistics, the best performance characteristics have a knife of 25 cm.

Control type should be chosen based on the potential performance of the device. Automatic devices are more expensive, but they can work tirelessly for 5-8 hours per shift, without the participation of an operator. For a small or medium-sized cafe or an ordinary grocery store, you should choose a semi-automatic slicer, since in any case it will have to work with fairly long breaks. Overpaying for an automatic model in this case is not practical.

A huge advantage for the slicer is the built-in knife sharpening system. If it is not there, you will have to regularly disassemble the device and give the disk for sharpening.

Sharpening type depends on the type of knife and is straight, wavy and serrated. The most expensive version of the cutting tool is wavy. This knife can handle all types of food. Straight blades are generally suitable for meat, cold cuts and cheese, more specialization depends on the material of the edge. The serrated knife cuts the bread evenly without creasing or coloring it.

Of the settings that can be set to the slicer, the most necessary are slice thickness and disc cutter rotation speed. The first characteristic is clear: for different needs, pieces of the product of different thicknesses are required. The second adjustment is needed in order to adjust the operation of the device for products of different densities. For example, it is better to cut dry sausage quickly, I slowly cut soft cheese. Performance is determined by the maximum disk rotation speed and can reach 2500 operations per minute.

The decisive aspect of the choice should be safety. The circular knife must be securely closed with a protective cover.

Proper use of the slicer

This gadget is quite easy to use. Working with a slicer does not require any special training. In the case of an automatic and semi-automatic device, carefully read instructions before use.

Having unpacked and prepared the device for work, you need to connect it to the network and make sure that power is displayed on the case. Next, prepare a piece for cutting. It is important that the product does not exceed the value set by the manufacturer, otherwise inconvenience may occur during operation. Having immersed food in the movable compartment, you should close it and direct it towards the rotating knife (in the automatic version, the carriage will do this by itself).

The slicer is set up immediately after unpacking and does not take much time. Some manipulations can be performed during operation. If necessary blade rotation speed can be controlled: this is done using the buttons on the body of the device.

The food to be cut should be free of all kinds of bones, stretching cartilage and tendons, as well as any hard objects that a spinning blade fixed in one position may not be able to handle.

After using the gadget, it should be cleared. Any household chemicals for cleaning dishes are suitable for this, but only if allowed by the manufacturer. You can store the device anywhere in a wide temperature range. The device is unpretentious not only in operation, but also in storage. The slicer is easy to use, and it saves a lot of time and allows you to enjoy wonderful slices of a wide variety of products.
