The Berkel Icon Line 170 Red slicer is a machine designed to slice food with high precision, combining modern design with advanced technical features. The machine body is finished in a bright red colour, combined with shiny metal inserts that enhance its professional appearance. The structure is made of a special aluminium alloy that combines lightness and sturdiness, with non-slip feet to ensure maximum stability during use.
It is equipped with a 19 kW motor , significantly more powerful than the average domestic slicer, allowing for consistent cuts, even on denser foods.
The chrome-plated steel blade has a diameter of 170 mm and ensures a precise, smooth and long-lasting cut.
The slice thickness is adjusted using a side knob with 18 positions, from 0 to 18 mm, allowing for immediate, millimetre-precise adjustment . The power switch is integrated into the knob itself: turning it starts the motor, and the stop button is incorporated into the centre, improving operational safety.
Another important feature is the support block, designed to reduce the distance between the trolley and the blade. This allows the slice to be fully supported, minimising waste and improving cutting efficiency. The sloping surface of the table also allows the product to slide naturally towards the blade, using the force of gravity. All the main components are easily removable, simplifying cleaning operations.
The most significant advantages include:
- 19 kW motor: high power for uniform and rapid cutting even on dense foods; offers greater operating margin than standard slicers.
- 170 mm chrome-plated steel cutting blade: large diameter and corrosion-resistant material; guarantees precise slices and uniform distribution of cutting force.
- Special aluminium alloy structure: lightweight but sturdy casing, with good heat dissipation and operational durability; contributes to the overall stability of the tool.
- Thickness adjustment from 0 to 18 mm in 18 positions: millimetre control of the slice via a graduated knob; allows cutting of cold cuts, cheeses, vegetables and other foods.
- Optimised support block: designed to reduce the space between the carriage and the blade and promote complete support of the slice; reduces waste and improves the yield of sliced material.
