Types of cutter

Meat slicer (cured-meat slicer)

With a rotating circular blade and adjustable thickness, it slices cured meats, ham, cheese and cold cuts into even slices. It's the most common slicer in delicatessens, bars and restaurants.

Electric vegetable cutter

With interchangeable discs for cutting into julienne, slices, dice or gratings. It saves a great deal of time preparing vegetables in large quantities.

Food band saw

Designed for safely cutting meat on the bone and frozen products, common in butchers and high-volume kitchens.

Electric mandoline

For quickly obtaining fine, even cuts, ideal for carefully plated dishes and preparations that require precision.

How to choose a professional slicer

Consider the blade diameter (the larger the diameter, the bigger the pieces and the greater the output), the motor power, the material (aluminium or stainless steel for intensive use), the type of food you're going to cut and the safety systems and ease of cleaning.

Frequently asked questions about cutters

What is a meat slicer?

It's a slicer with a rotating circular blade and adjustable thickness that lets you cut cured meats, ham, cheese and cold cuts into even slices quickly and safely, very common in delicatessens, bars and restaurants.

What blade diameter do I need?

The larger the blade diameter, the bigger the piece you can cut and the greater the output. For home or occasional use, small or medium diameters are enough; for intensive catering use, a larger blade and a robust motor are the way to go.

Can you cut frozen food?

For meat on the bone and frozen products the right tool is a food band saw, not a meat slicer. Disc slicers are designed for cured meats, cheese and cold cuts, not for frozen food or bones.

Are they suitable for intensive professional use?

There are domestic models and others built for catering. For intensive use it's best to choose slicers with aluminium or stainless steel construction, a powerful motor and safety systems; if you're unsure, we're happy to advise you.

How are slicers cleaned and maintained?

Most allow the blade and guards to be removed for thorough cleaning. It's important to do this after each use, to sharpen the blade periodically and to follow the manufacturer's safety instructions.
