Abstract
A slicing machine for foodstuffs in block form has a slicing blade for the foodstuff in block form and a shaft for receiving the foodstuff. The longitudinal direction of the shaft corresponds to the feed direction of the foodstuff in block form. The shaft has a first shaft region and a second shaft region which are at least partially separated from one another by a slot. At least one offset lies between the two shaft regions. The two shaft regions can be moved relative to one another such that the offset can be reduced by the movement.
Claims1
A method for cutting block-like foodstuffs by means of a slicing machine, comprising the following method steps:
- the block-like foodstuff is inserted into a shaft of the slicing machine, wherein the shaft has two shaft regions, which are at least partially separated from each other by a slot,
- the block-like foodstuff is guided past a cutting blade in the direction of feed,
- the relative position of the two shaft regions one to the other is altered,
- the block-like foodstuff is once again guided past the cutting blade in the opposite direction of feed,
- wherein the cutting of the block-like foodstuff takes place in the first or second run past the cutting blade and the inserted foodstuff block is rotated within the shaft prior to the first run past the cutting blade.
