A method for slicing food products comprising:
- carrying out a primary movement with a cutting blade defining a cutting plane;
- supplying a product to be sliced to the cutting blade by a conveying device to bring the product into engagement with the cutting blade;
- moving the cutting blade from time to time at a speed different from the speed of the primary movement while it is in engagement with the product;
- moving the cutting blade about a blade axis rotating in the cutting plane, with the direction of rotation of the rotational movement being changed while the cutting blade is in engagement with the product;
- and
- rotating the cutting blade alternately about a first angle of rotation in accordance with the primary movement and about a second angle of rotation against the primary movement, with the first angle of rotation being larger than the second angle of rotation.
