LinkedIn Pinterest Tumblr

Urschel Laboratories has introduced a new type of cutting head for its top-selling Model CC Potato Chip Slicer. Equipped with 14 cutting stations instead of the standard eight, the MicroAdjustable Slicing Head SL-14 model requires no special adapters for food processors switching over from eight-station units.

The new slicing design concept does not incorporate shims or shoes, and offers tool-free knife changeovers. Weighing in at only 35 pounds (16 kilograms) with built-in lifting handles, the SL-14 is adeptly removed and replaced. This development allows processors the ability to increase productivity without the expense of purchasing an additional slicer.

Founded in 1910, Chesterton, Indiana, USA-headquartered Urschel offers a wide range of food cutting technology that includes an array of high-speed vegetable, french fry and fruit cutters, meat dicers, fish processing equipment, poultry dicers, precision lettuce shredders, crumblers for bakery rework, bulk bread cubers and cheese shredders.
