Meat Slicers - Food Slicers

Commercial meat and food slicers are essential workhorses for UK delis, butcher shops, and busy restaurant kitchens needing precision cuts day in, day out.

Capacity and Size

  • Check carriage size for larger items like joints and whole salamis.
  • Measure counter space carefully—leave room for operation and cleaning.

Power Source and Usage

  • Most run on standard 13A plugs—check your electrical capacity.
  • Consider duty cycles—light, medium or heavy-duty based on volume.
  • Belt-driven models run quieter, ideal for front-of-house operations.

How Commercial Meat & Food Slicers Work

Commercial slicers operate on a beautifully simple yet effective mechanism. A circular blade—typically 220-350mm in diameter and made from hardened stainless steel—spins at consistent RPMs while your food sits on a sliding carriage. As you glide the carriage back and forth, the blade slices through your meat, cheese or veg with impressive precision. Most models feature adjustable thickness controls (from paper-thin 0-15mm), allowing perfect customization for everything from wafer-thin ham to chunky bread slices. The motor powers everything, with commercial units typically running 120-750W for reliable performance even during continuous operation—making quick work of what would otherwise be hours of manual slicing!

Top Tips for Using Commercial Meat & Food Slicers

To get the most from your meat slicer, always chill meats properly before slicing—it dramatically improves cut quality and reduces waste. Clean thoroughly between different food types to prevent cross-contamination, and consider blade sharpening kits for maintaining peak performance. For delicate items like smoked salmon, use the lowest speed setting and adjust the thickness gradually. Keep a food-grade lubricant handy for moving parts, and train all staff thoroughly on proper safety procedures.
