Grote 722 Slicing and Cooking Line

• Producing uniformly sliced and cooked meat products such as bacon, ham, or poultry.
• Processing delicate food items requiring precise slicing and gentle cooking.
• High-volume production lines in food manufacturing facilities.
• Preparing pre-cooked components for ready meals or further processing.

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment can range from several hundred kilograms to over a tonne per hour, depending on product type and slice thickness.

Power supply

Commonly requires a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage requirements for the slicer, cooker, and conveyors.

Footprint

A complete line of this type, including slicer, cooker, and cooling conveyor, typically requires a significant floor area, often exceeding 10-15 metres in length.

Slicing method

Grote slicers commonly utilise a rotary or orbital slicing action, known for precision and high yield.

Cooking technology

Formcook Teflon belt cookers typically employ contact cooking for efficient heat transfer and consistent product quality.

Cooling method

Wire belt cooling conveyors with air knives are commonly used to rapidly reduce product temperature and remove surface moisture.

Material construction

Units of this type are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability.
