Abstract: A method for the slicing of food products, wherein at least one product is fed to a cutting plane in which at least one cutting blade moves, in particular in a rotating and/or revolving manner, by a product feed which comprises at least one conveying device. At least one multifunctional work unit is adjusted in dependence on the operating situation into a contact position, in which the work unit presses the product moving in the conveying direction toward a lower product support and/or toward a lateral product contact, or into a blocking position in which the work unit counteracts a movement of the product in the conveying direction.

Abstract: A slicer having at least one cutting blade, in particular a scythe-like blade, rotating about an axis of rotation and having an imbalance. Also included is a rotary drive for the cutting blade. Further included is a counterweight having at least one balance mass for compensating the imbalance of the cutting blade.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for slicing food products, in particular a high-performance slicer, comprising a rotor shaft which rotates about a rotational axis during operation and which can be adjusted in an axial manner, in particular in order to carry out blank cuts and/or to adjust cutting gaps; a rotor which is driven by the rotor shaft; a cutting blade which is supported by the rotor, in particular a circular blade which rotates about the rotational axis in a planetary manner and additionally rotates relative to the rotor about a blade axis that runs parallel to the rotational axis in an offset manner; and a rotary drive for the rotor shaft.

Abstract: A device for cutting up food products, particularly a high-performance slicer, having a product feed which comprises at least one conveying device. At least one product may be fed to a cutting plane in which at least one cutting tool is moving, particularly in a rotating or circulating manner. The cutting device further comprises at least one multifunctional working unit for at least intermittently handling the product. The working unit can be displaced into a contact position, in which the working unit presses the product which is movable in the conveying direction against a lower product bearing surface and/or a side product bearing surface, and into a locking position. In the locking position, the working unit prevents any movement of the product in the conveying direction.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing food portions by means of a slicing device, in particular a slicer, wherein said food portions comprise at least one food slice and are cut from a stick of food using the slicing device, wherein the stick of food is irradiated, preferably by means of x-rays, before the particular food portion is sliced and the data measured in the process are used to control the slicing device and/or a device arranged downstream of the slicing device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for adjusting the cutting gap in a slicing device for cutting food products, wherein the slicing device comprises a rotationally driven blade, a cutting edge, and an adjusting device, which moves the blade toward the cutting edge or away from the cutting edge perpendicularly to the cutting edge, wherein the blade is first moved by the adjusting device until the blade touches the cutting edge and then a desired distance between the blade and the cutting edge is set by the adjusting device. The invention further relates to a device for adjusting the cutting gap of a slicing device.
