Slicer/Applicator

A Continued Investment in Performance

Grote’s Slicer/Applicator has been the industry standard for quality slicing and accurate targeting for decades. The latest enhancements emphasize:

Sanitary Design

Featuring an open channel frame with no hollow tubing, easy access, IP69K motors, and more. Enjoy hygienic operation, and easier and faster sanitation and maintenance.

Easier & Repeatable Setup

A new blade guide mounting system takes the “magic” out of set-up, allowing for quick changeouts and reduced downtime.

Reduced Total Cost of Ownership

Our AccuBand® Blade System has been completely redesigned – including pulley sizing, blade path, and automatic blade speed adjustments – all to improve blade and blade guide life.
