Commercial Slicers
You can use a knife to cut meat into slices, but doing this in large volumes can be incredibly time consuming.
Commercial slicers partially automate the process of slicing meat and offer an increased level of functionality to people who need meat sliced at different thicknesses.
Commercial meat slicers come in two different forms, either electric or manual. Manual meat slicers require a user to push the meats through a blade compartment, while electric slicers do this automatically. If you are processing large amounts of meat, an electric meat slicer is the way to go. The price difference is marginal, as many electric meat slices are quite affordable when you consider saved prep time. No matter which format you are looking to purchase, Globe is a great brand to choose from. They offer several styles of commercial slicers, ranging from 9” economy slicers to 13” automatic Globe slicers.
If you are purchasing an electric commercial slicer, there are several different specifications you will need to consider before making your purchase. These include horsepower, blade size and the driving method. The horsepower will determine the density of meats you can slice using the slicer and whether or not you can cut through frozen meats. The blade size will dictate how large and how thick of slices you are able to cut meats. The driving method, which could be either belt driven or gear driven, will determine how the meat is fed into the slicing area. It is important to note that a belt driven device will likely be easier to repair than a gear driven machine.
A commercial slicer can save time in your establishment, and add profitability and simplicity in your operations. No matter the style or budget that you have in mind, The Kitchen Spot connects you with professionals that offer commercial slicers to allow you to finish the job much faster than a regular knife.
