Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Pro: The slicing action is exceptionally smooth, even on tough salami.
  • Con: At 50kg, it's a two-person lift and  needs its own dedicated counter space.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

A thriving farm shop and  café in rural Perthshire needed to upgrade its slicer. Their old machine couldn't keep up with demand for their locally cured hams and  cooked meats, leading to bottlenecks during peak hours and  inconsistent slice quality.

"The Sirman is in a different league. It's quieter, faster, and  the precision is just fantastic. Our prep is so much smoother now, and  the team feels much safer using it. It just plows through the day's work without any fuss."

Robert Davies – Head Chef, The Tayside Larder

The upgrade resulted in their daily slicing and  prep time being reduced by an estimated 25%, allowing staff to focus on other tasks.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • This unit weighs 50kg, so ensure you have a sturdy, level countertop and  assistance with lifting it into place.
  • Position it with enough clear space around it for safe operation and  easy cleaning.
  • Before first use, familiarise all operators with the safety manual, especially the emergency stop button.
  • Wipe down the machine with a food-safe sanitiser before it makes contact with any food products.

Keeping It Going

  • Always unplug the slicer from the mains power before attempting to clean or maintain it.
  • After each day's use, thoroughly clean the blade, carriage, and  all food-contact areas.
  • Use the built-in sharpener regularly as per the user manual to maintain optimal blade performance.
  • Wipe down the anodised aluminium body with a soft, damp cloth to keep it looking pristine and  professional.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Slicer

Not sure which slicer is right for your kitchen? It's a big decision, so here’s a few pointers to help you choose wisely.

Blade Size Matters

The blade diameter determines the maximum size of the product you can slice. A 350mm blade like this one is perfect for large joints of beef, gammon, or mortadella.

Motor & Duty Cycle

Consider what you're slicing. A powerful, ventilated motor like this one is essential for dense cheese or continuous, all-day use in a busy deli without the risk of overheating.

Safety First

In a fast-paced environment, safety is non-negotiable. Look for robust blade guards, a no-volt release system, and  a prominent emergency stop button for complete peace of mind.

Ease of Cleaning

Hygiene is paramount. A machine with a smooth, seamless body made from materials like anodised aluminium is far quicker and  easier to clean thoroughly, saving you time and  labour.

Gravity vs. Vertical

This is a gravity-feed slicer, where the carriage sits at an angle, helping the product slide towards the blade. This design is great for all-purpose slicing and  reduces operator fatigue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can this slicer handle hard cheese as well as meat?

A: Yes, its powerful motor is more than capable of slicing hard cheeses like Parmesan or aged cheddar. We recommend cleaning the blade thoroughly between slicing meat and  cheese.

Q: What is the maximum slice thickness?

A: The Sirman Galileo CE398 offers a highly adjustable cutting thickness, from wafer-thin right up to a chunky 30mm.

Q: How does the built-in blade sharpener work?

A: It's a simple, integrated two-stone system. You engage it for a few seconds to hone the blade, keeping it razor-sharp without needing to remove it. Full instructions are in the manual.

Q: What kind of power socket does this need?

A: It requires a standard UK 230V mains supply and  comes fitted with a 13A plug, so no special wiring is needed.

Q: Is this machine suitable for a small café?

A: This is a heavy-duty, high-volume machine. While it would perform brilliantly, its large footprint and  50kg weight might be overkill unless you have a very busy sandwich or deli trade.

Q: Can I slice frozen meat with this machine?

A: No, you should never attempt to slice frozen or bone-in meat with this type of slicer. It is designed for cooked, cured, or chilled boneless meats.

Q: How heavy is the unit?

A: The slicer weighs 50kg. This ensures maximum stability during use but means it will need a permanent, sturdy counter to sit on.

Q: What are the benefits of an anodised aluminium body?

A: Anodised aluminium is strong, lightweight, resistant to corrosion from salts and  acids, and  has a smooth, non-porous surface that is very easy to clean and  sanitise.
