A most extraordinary slicer
Chances are that the ability to cope with changes in demand will head a long list of priorities for most, if not all, processors of cooked meats, bacon and cheese. It's hardly surprising as these days consumers, and the major retailers that supply them, show little or no patience – when they say jump, it means jump - now!
Those 'processors under pressure' include small to medium producers of specialist hams, cooked meats or cheese, contract cutters supplying the majors with own brand packs, and the 'big boys' who create and produce varying volumes - often high - of high quality niche products.
Operators of ordinary slicers would understandably regard such irregular patterns of behaviour with a degree of reluctance and even concern, but now, thanks to new thinking and technology, their worried frowns can turn to wide grins.
Enter the all new AEW Delford PolySlicer 1000 – a high output, easy to operate slicer that can be easily and quickly adapted to cope with changes in demand.
PolySlicer 1000 has a compact footprint so it takes up little space.
It has a large, 3 log slicing capacity that enables it to slice at maximum output in minimal time thereby making it economical.

If required, the machine can be easily and quickly configured to operate with an orbital blade to produce finer cuts on a wide range of products like pates, salamis, natural hams and soft cheese.
PolySlicer 1000 can shingle, stack, stagger, shave, portion, fold or interleave and it can produce variety packs.
It can produce a variety of different products with minimal downtime, thanks to very fast changeover time.
A load assist facility makes product loading easy and quick and helps avoid RSI.
It is designed for easy hygiene with all product contact parts being easy to remove.
It can operate as a stand alone machine or as part of an integrated fixed or catch weight system.
A range of upgrade packages including stacker, variety conveyor and interleaver are available when required to ensure that PolySlicer 1000 retains its optimum performance and gives a good return on investment.
Marel has a strong presence in further processing with a range of automatic portion control slicers and saws, high speed slicing machines and systems, weigh price labellers, checkweighers and robot portion loading systems. All of which are designed to maximise yields and out put, increase throughput efficiency, reduce labour costs and optimise product quality.
And make processors smile!
