The Centris™ 400P slicer, by FAM Stumabo, was specially developed for the potato chips/crisps industry. It is ideal for both high-capacity batch-type lines and continuous lines, where the 16-station cutting head and patented DualStage impeller wheel deliver high output.
The Centris 400P’s 16-station cutting head technology is available in two versions: GapSet featuring a fixed slice thickness setting; or SureSet, which allows for slight adjustments to the slice thickness to accommodate different product varieties and dry matter content.
Yield and quality are improved with reduced starch loss and less scrap and tapered cuts. The smoother surface of the slices also reduces oil uptake. The cutting head accepts potatoes to 100 mm (3 7/8”) in any dimension. This compact machine can be easily integrated into existing and new lines.
