Industrial slicer for cooked ham and calibrated products

Achieve precision slicing and flexible portioning of meats and cheeses, maximizing yield and reducing waste with advanced circular blade technology.

Slices, Loads, and Portions Food Products Efficiently

The GEA UniSlicer L is a circular blade slicer renowned for its precision and versatility in food processing applications. This slicer effectively handles calibrated products like sausage, ham, bacon, and cheese, making it indispensable for meat and dairy producers aiming to standardize slices and portions, such as cooked ham slices, deli meat portions, and cheese slices. Utilizing servo-driven feeding, it maintains consistent slice thickness and minimizes waste by optimizing trim cuts and endpieces. Capable of slicing multiple logs simultaneously thanks to its wide throat design, it maximizes throughput within a compact footprint.

Manual loading allows for rapid product changeover, increasing flexibility across various operational conditions—ideal for high-speed, semi-automatic production environments. The UniSlicer L integrates easily into existing lines, offering optional components such as the GEA Check 4000 weighing system and a folding device, enhancing its utility in portion control and product presentation. Capable of achieving up to 600 rpm, it supports a range of portion types, including shingle and stack formations.

Crafted from durable materials to withstand demanding production conditions, the slicer features user-friendly maintenance with swift blade and component changeovers. The UniSlicer L is engineered to ensure reliability, encourage efficient operation, and offer exceptional slicing quality that meets the rigorous standards required in modern food processing facilities.
