Daub - Conveyor Slicer

• Used in bakeries for high-volume slicing of bread loaves and similar products.
• Suitable for food manufacturing facilities requiring consistent slice thickness for various food items.
• Applicable in large-scale catering operations for preparing sliced goods efficiently.
• Utilised in sandwich production lines for uniform slicing of bread bases.

Typical throughput

Typically, conveyor slicers of this class can process several hundred loaves per hour, depending on product size and slice thickness.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type is a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage requirements.

Slice thickness range

While this unit specifies 10mm, conveyor slicers typically offer adjustable slice thicknesses, often ranging from 8mm to 20mm, sometimes with interchangeable blade sets.

Conveyor width

The conveyor width for this class of equipment typically accommodates standard bread loaf sizes, commonly ranging from 300mm to 500mm.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, a typical footprint might be around 1.5m to 2.5m in length and 0.8m to 1.2m in width, excluding any infeed/outfeed extensions.

Blade type

Conveyor slicers commonly use band blades or reciprocating blades, designed for durability and clean cuts.

• What maintenance is typically required for a conveyor slicer?

  Regular maintenance typically involves blade inspection and replacement, cleaning of product contact surfaces, and checking conveyor belt tension and condition. Lubrication of moving parts may also be required.

• Can this type of slicer handle different product sizes?

• Is it possible to change the slice thickness on a used unit?

• What safety features are commonly found on these machines?

• What is the typical lifespan of blades on a conveyor slicer?

Bread slicers are valued for consistent slice thickness and improved production efficiency. Buyers typically seek models with reliable blade systems and sturdy construction, as these factors directly affect longevity and output quality. Used models often represent good value provided mechanical components are intact and blade condition is verified. Industry sentiment favours machines with straightforward maintenance requirements and readily available replacement parts. Adjustable slice settings and safety features are commonly prioritised when assessing secondhand units.
