The patented Urschel® Model M6 is a versatile machine designed for dicing, strip cutting, or shredding a variety of products through a wide range of sizes from product of a predetermined thickness. The machine is ideally suited for cutting frozen-tempered, fresh chilled, or hot cooked beef, pork, or poultry in addition to leafy vegetable products. The Model M6 operates continuously at high production capacities., and is designed for easy cleanup and maintenance.

Key components promote increased sanitation incorporated in an ergonomic, practical design: Hinged access panels - stainless steel motor - solid bar and angle frame design - streamlined product feed with two pivoting product guides – integrated electrical enclosure – convenient operator stop/start station.

The OPERATION PRINICPLE when DICING/STRIP CUTTING is as follows:
Product is delivered onto a high speed feed belt. This belt carries the product to the dicing unit. Product is pinched between a feed roll and the drive roll at the end of the feed belt. The feed roll, which is spring loaded and adjustable, allows product of varying thicknesses to move through the dicing unit without being crushed. Product is forced into circular knives which run in narrow grooves in the rotating feed drum. The resulting strips are then removed from the circular knives by a stripper plate which also acts as a shear edge for the crosscut knives. The stips of product move directly into the rotating crosscut knives producing cubes or rectangular pieces of predetermined size.

Types of Cuts:

Dices:
Many sizes of cuts are possible by combining the various selections of circular knife spacings with different crosscut knife spindles. Circular Knives: 3/16 to 1-1/2” (4,8 to 38 mm), Crosscut Knives: 1/8 to “ (3,2 to 76,2 mm) standard sizes, up to 5.66” (144 mm) available with alternate gearing.

Stip cuts:
Strip cuts can be made by removing the crosscut knife spindle from the machine. The length and thickness of the strips will depend upon the size of the original product.

Shreds:
Many types available. Due to variables in applications, it is highly recommended that processors work with Urschel to achieve optimum results.

The largest machine in the DiversaCut line, the DiversaCut 2110A™ Dicer produces dices, strips, slices, granulations, and shreds at high production capacities. With a maximum infeed of 10" (254 mm) in any dimension, the machine offers cost-savings by eliminating the need to pre-cut product. This new dicer promotes more precise cut tolerances with slice adjustment and lockdown features. The machine also features fine-tuning through adjustable collars on both cutting spindles for ultimate precision. Products widely processed include: potatoes, carrots, onions, cabbage, peppers, celery, tomatoes, aloe vera, apples, cooked bacon, cooked turkey or beef roasts, candy granulations, papaya, breads, cookie granulations, ham, fish, pepperoni, squash, pet food, cassava, kohlrabi, cucumbers, eggplant, zucchini, mango, ginger, kale, leek, peaches, pineapple, and strawberries.
 

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Product is delivered to a feed hopper, then enters a rotating impeller. The resulting centrifugal force holds the product against the inside of the case as the impeller paddles carry the product past the slicing knife. An adjustable case gate on the impeller case allows product to move outward across the edge of the slicing knife. The distance between the edge of the slice gate and the slicing knife edge determines the slice thickness.
As the slices emerge, they are guided between the slicing knife and stripper plate before entering circular knives where they are cut into strips. The strips pass directly into the crosscut knives which make the final cut.

TYPES OF CUTS
Slices: The machine can make a full range of slices byremoving the crosscut and circular knife spindles. Flat or crinkle slices: 1/16 to 1" (1.6 to 25.4 mm)

Dices/Granulations: A slicing knife, circular knife spindle, and crosscut knife spindle are used for dicing. Changing the dice size is done by using the required cutting spindles and adjusting the slice thickness.
Circular knife cuts: 1/8 to 3" (3.2 to 76.2 mm)
Crosscut knife cuts: 3/32 to 1-1/2" (2.4 to 38.1 mm)
Crosscut knife crinkle cuts (.076" depth): 9/32 to .583" (7.1 to 14.8 mm)
Crosscut knife deep crinkle cuts (.125" or .145" depth): 3/8 to 1/2" (9.5 to 12.7 mm)
Crosscut knife V-cuts: 5/16 to 1/2" (7.9 to 12.7 mm)

Strip cuts: Flat and crinkle strip cuts in a variety of widths can be made by removing either the crosscut knife spindle or circular knife spindle assembly.

Shreds: Fine, medium, and coarse shreds can be produced on hot or chilled cooked meat products.
 

PROCESSES DIFFICULT-TO-CUT PRODUCTS
 

The new Affinity INTEGRA, a smaller version of the original Affinity®, excels at processing challenging, difficult-to-cut applications such as cheese or soft meats, meats with high-fat content, cold temperature products, sticky bakery ingredients, or products like brined pickles. The clean-cutting action achieves high yields of precise, targeted cut sizes well within customer parameters.

This new dicer incorporates design elements from the longstanding Model RA series, the Affinity, and the Sprint® with the ability to replace existing in-line Model RA series machines. Compared to RA series machines, the Integra accepts a larger infeed product size (up to approximately 4.5" (114 mm), delivers a higher yield, and offers greater overall efficiencies.

TYPES OF CUTS

SLICES
Slice thickness: up to 1/2" (12.7 mm)

DICES/GRANULATIONS/CRUMBLES
A slicing knife, circular knife spindle, and crosscut knife spindle are used for dicing. Changing the dice size is done by adjusting the slice thickness and cutting spindles as needed.

Circular Knife Cuts: 1/8 – 1" (3.2 – 25.4 mm)
Crosscut Knife Cuts: 1/8 – 1-1/2" (3.2 – 38.1 mm)

STRIP CUTS/SHREDS
Flat strips can be made by removing either the crosscut knife spindle or the circular knife spindle. Combinations of circular knives or crosscut knives can be used to shorten the length of the strips.

The Affinity Dicer is the largest dicer Urschel manufactures. The heavy duty dicer delivers a sanitary design, optimal high capacity output, and precision cuts. The maximum infeed is 7" (178 mm) in any dimension. The Affinity Dicer for cheese is accepted by the United States Department of Agriculture, Dairy Division. In addition to dairy products, the machine is also able to process products as ham, bacon, and several vegetables.

Key Affinity Features

Maximum power to deliver maximum throughput capacity
Sanitary highly polished stainless steel surfaces to deter bacterial growth
Food zone completely separate from the mechanical zone
Hinged swing-away panels and sloped surfaces simplify maintenance and wash-down procedures
Designed for continuous operation for uninterrupted production
Produces superior cut quality
The Affinity™ is also available with conveyer feed chute

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Product delivered to a feed hopper enters a rotating impeller. Centrifugal force holds the product against the inside of the case. Impeller paddles carry the product past the slicing knife. An adjustable slice gate at the top of the case determines the slice thickness. Slices pass between the rotating feed drum and feed roll, then enter the circular knives where they are cut into strips. The strips pass directly into the crosscut knives where the final cut is made. The stripper plate removes
product from the spaces between the circular knives and acts as a shear edge for the crosscut knives.

TYPES OF CUTS
Slice thickness: 1/8 to 3/4" (3.2 to 19.1 mm)
Dices: A slicing knife, circular knife spindle, and crosscut knife spindle are used for dicing. Changing the dice size is done by adjusting the slice thickness, variable frequency drive, and cutting spindles as needed.
Circular Knife Spindle: 1/8 to 2" (3.2 to 50.8 mm)
Crosscut Knife Spindle: 1/8 to 2" (3.2 to 50.8 mm)
Strip Cuts: Flat strips can be made by removing either the crosscut knife spindle or the circular knife spindle. Combinations of circular knives or crosscut knives can be used to shorten the length of the strips.
1/8 to 2" (3.2 to 50.8 mm) in length
