Precise high-speed slicer
The GEA OptiSlicer 6000 is the optimal high-speed slicing machine - mainly for regular shaped products like calibrated sausage, salami, raw/ cooked ham and cheese – with respect to slicing and portioning quality, high yield slicing, high performance, easy and flexible operations.
The GEA OptiSlicer 6000 provides the ultimate slicing precision.It’sdesigned for regular-shaped products such as calibrated sausage, salami, cooked ham and cheese. The Optimum in Precision means perfect slicing and portioning quality with high-performance and flexible operation.
The GEA OptiSlicer 6000 isdesigned to slice regular shaped products. Various portion forms like shingle, stack, zig zag, shaved, interleaved* and folded* are possible (depends on application, *requires additional specification).
Slicing reliability you can count on
Flexibility in slicing you need
Slicer is easy to operate and maintain

The GEA OptiSlicer 6000 also includes new slicer blades with optimized geometry and the new GEA ResystRed/ ResystGold coating for an even smoother, more accurate cut, better portion control and less protein clogging.Crust freezing process might be avoided so CO2 and N2 consumption is eliminated, this results to a beneficial sustainability effect. There’s no need for a freezing unit in the slicing process, when operating with our dedicated saw-tooth edge slicing blade. This reduces preparation time and improves productivity.

This allows access rights to be allocated to individual operators, enables complete production lines to be managed centrally and recipes to be changed very quickly. GEA’s online remote access and maintenance service providesreal-time advice and intervention from experienced GEA engineers whenever it is needed.

The GEA Check 4000 is a high precision weighing system, detecting single weights of sliced portions while moving these over the check weigher. The single portion weights are analyzed in the slicer for weight regulation. Thus, the slicer is able to respond to varying product cross sections and optimize the deviation in average weights over a long period of production time. All side panels can be removed swiftly without tools for cleaning and maintenance. The weighing conveyors can be swiveled upwards for easy removal of belts for cleaning issues. The GEA Check 4000 is available from 1- up to 4-lane configuration.The weighing system is calibrated for loads between 20 and 5,000 g.

The GEA OptiScanner 600 / 1200 is a pre-scanner system that makes it possible to slice natural products like dry cured ham and cheese with lowest give-away, maximum yield and on-weight portions. The scanner literally looks into the product and determines the density distribution over the length of the product by means of x-ray technology. In this process, the device detects irregular outer contours as wellas holes, under slices and irregular distribution of fat and meat. Based on the density distribution, the intelligent software calculates the ideal slice thickness and/or number of slices for each portion prior to slicing.

El termoformado lleva mucho tiempo desempeñando un papel fundamental en el envasado de alimentos. Ahora se enfrenta a un cambio importante. A medida que se endurecen las normativas, evolucionan los materiales y aumentan los costes, las líneas de envasado formado, llenado y sellado deben hacer algo más que funcionar de forma fiable: ahora determinan cómo los alimentos se mantienen frescos, asequibles y reciclables. Eche un vistazo a las principales tendencias en termoformado que están marcando el panorama del envasado y entrega de alimentos.

Desde los huertos de Ciudad del Cabo hasta las góndolas de las tiendas en 40 países, la empresa sudafricana de envasado Betko ha construido su negocio en base a la frescura, puntualidad y fiabilidad. Gracias a la tecnología de refrigeración en atmósfera controlada de GEA, la empresa puede ahora almacenar manzanas y peras durante un máximo de 14 meses y reducir el consumo energético en un 20%, todo ello gracias a nuestra colaboración de más de 30 años.
