TranSlicer 2000® Cutter High Capacity Precision Slicing TranSlicer 2000® Cutter SPECIFICATIONS OPERATING PRINCIPLE Product is delivered onto two high speed feed belts [ 1 ] sloping together to form a “V” shaped feed trough. The belts are synchronized with the rotating slicing wheel [ 2 ] to ensure proper advance of product per revolution of the wheel. Knives [ 3 ] 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. Optional free wheeling or motorized top belts are available if more positive feeding is needed. One slice is made at a time which prevents any crushing of the product. The cut slices are then released into a hinged, discharge chute to reduce their speed before exiting the machine.

JULIENNE WHEELS: Julienne cuts ranging from 1/2 x 1/2" (12.7 x 12.7 mm) to 2 x 2" (50.8 x 50.8 mm) are produced by using julienne knives on the slicing wheel.
