Applications
E TRANSLICER® CUTTER
The standard E TranSlicer Cutter (ETRS) (shown above left) accepts firm products up to 4" (101.6 mm) in diameter or leafy-type, compressible products up to 6" (152.4 mm). Interchangeable 20" (508 mm) diameter stainless steel cutting wheels reduce products with great precision and efficiency at high capacity. Wheels include slicing, patented ßMicroSlice®, and julienne. The number, placement, degree of pitch, and type of knives work with the cutting wheel and feed belt speed to determine the size of cut. Combination wheels equipped with slicing and julienne knives produce shreds. Available static hold-down, non-powered top belt, or powered top-belt hold-down assemblies maintain positive feeding assistance.
E TRANSLICER® BIAS CUTTER
The machine is also available in the bias slicing version (ETRS-B) (shown above middle). The ETRS-B accepts products up to 2.5" (63.5 mm). Designed for batch processing. Newly developed parts transform the ††E TranSlicer® Cutter (METRS) from standard slicing to either 35 or 45 degree bias flat or crinkle slicing. Available when ordering a new machine, or as a retrofit kit for E TranSlicer machines in the field. Once retrofitted, switching over from straight to bias slicing is accomplished in as little as 10 minutes.
Both the standard ETRS and the bias ETRS-B may be built with an optional discharge conveyor (standard model with built-in conveyor shown above, right).
