FAM Centris 315 Shredder for vegetables and fruits

Summit Machinery has released the FAM Centris 315, a compact centrifugal slicer/shredder which delivers high volumes from a very small footprint. Capable of flat slices, crinkle-cut slices, V-cut slices, v-cut shreds, julienne shreds and oval-cut shreds, the machine is suitable for produce such as carrots, potatoes, onions, beetroot, mushrooms, beans and oranges.

The cutting head ensures a consistent slice and shred thickness throughout the slicing process. Manufactured from 100% stainless steel, the head weighs 8 kg and has a reduced number of parts, which improves cleanability and simplifies the assembly.

The large infeed provides uniform product flow to the cutting heads and avoids overloading problems. The rigid, seamlessly welded frame has no flat surfaces, a limited number of bolts and no exposed threads. A trapped key interlocking safety system prevents access to the cutting area during machine operation.

The machine is delivered with its own specially built stand and is designed according to CE FDA and HACCP regulations. The drive, product and electronics zones are completely separated.
