Product sizes
With depositing system:
min. angular 50 x 50 mm = 2" x 2" or round 50 mm = 2" diameter
max. angular 240 x 180 mm = 9.5" x 7.1" or round 180 mm = 7.1" diameter
W/o depositing system:
max. angular 240 x 180 mm = 9.5" x 7.1" or round 225 mm = 8.8" diameter
Several sliced product pieces can be placed next to each other. Loading width max. 240 mm
= 9.5".
Applications

Operating time
The slicers are designed for permanent operation.
2.2 Machine description
The fully automatic (F) vertical slicer (VS) for the industrial area (I) comes with a 330 mm
blade.
Type designations or versions
VSI330 F = machine with depositing table, 400mm or 600mm carriage
VSI330 F W = machine with depositing table, scale (W), 400mm or 600mm carriage
VSI330 F T = machine with conveyor belt (T), 400mm or 600mm carriage
VSI330 F TW = machine with conveyor belt (T), scale (W), 400mm or 600mm carriage
All versions are available with a mobile bench.
Drive
Blade drive and carriage drive are operated with supply voltage, the drive for the depositing
table, conveyor belts, depositing arm and chains are operated with low voltage.
The contractor control having a self-locking circuit prevents automatic restarting after a power
cut.
ON/OFF switch and function keys are located on the display and operating unit.
Depositing system
The slicers are equipped with an automatic slice depositing system. The depositing system
deposits slices with a max. slice thickness of 12 mm. A max. slice thickness of 22 mm can be
reached without depositing system and with unlocked slice thickness limit.
The depositing system consists of a chain frame with transport chains, feed roller with guide
cam and depositing arm.
The depositing system is controlled based on carriage speed and carriage stroke.
Product holder
The product holder with remnant holder is equipped with a movable gripper hook.
The remnant holder for the 400 mm carriage has its own clamping device which can be
swiveled up and stopped in place in order to insert the product. This is not possible for the
600 mm carriage.
Carriage
The machines are fitted with a 400 mm or 600 mm carriage.
With the cleaning program activated and a slice thickness setting below "0" the tilting lock of
the carriage is released. This allows the carriage to be tilted to the outside in any position.
Scale
The slicers VSI W / VSI TW are fitted with a scale which is not metrologically approved. Por-
tions are sliced according to a pre-selected weight.
Materials
Machine housing, gauge plate and blade cover are made of anodized aluminum.

38065447002 en-US 9 / 101
The carriage plate is made of stainless steel plate.
All components getting in direct contact with food and materials used in the working area
comply with the food hygiene regulations. For bearings in visual range, food-grade lubricants
are used.
Vibration
The total vibration of the items, which get into contact with hand and arm is below 2.5m/s2
and therefore below the required limited value.
