Urschel M Dicer
Versatile Cutting into Dices, Strips, and Shreds
The Urschel M dicer is a highly efficient cutting machine, offering a wide range of capabilities for processing food raw materials. Urschel has been recognized for decades as the global leader in food cutting technology, and the Model M – a two-dimensional cutting machine – lives up to that reputation, enabling precise cutting of cooked, fresh, and lightly frozen products into strips and dices.
How does the Urschel M Dicer work?
The Model M is a two-dimensional cutting machine, meaning the product is cut simultaneously along two planes – through the use of circular knives and crosscut knives, it can produce precise dices, strips, as well as shreds or grated product, depending on the cutting set installed. This design delivers a uniform piece size with minimal waste and limited product deformation – which matters especially when working with delicate or lightly frozen raw materials.
The machine is supplied as standard with a 6.35 mm circular knife set, though the overall cutting size range is much broader: circular knives allow cuts from 3.2 to 38.1 mm, while crosscut knives range from 3.2 to 76.2 mm, giving considerable flexibility in matching piece size to a specific product range.
Key advantages of the Urschel Model M dicer
The Model M dicer is a great fit wherever versatility matters – the machine successfully processes various types of vegetables, fruit, cheese, and fish, while offering several cutting styles within a single unit: strips, dices, shreds, and grating. This means one machine can cover many different production tasks without the need to invest in separate equipment for each cutting style.
A capacity of up to 2,000 kg/h (depending on the product and cutting size) makes the dicer suitable for both smaller processing plants and large-scale production lines. Precision knives combined with the robust, hygienic stainless-steel construction characteristic of Urschel machines make it easy to maintain cleanliness in line with food industry requirements and reduce downtime related to washing and maintenance.
