Onions

Slice
Process onions on the Urschel CC Slicer: 1/16 to 1/8″ (1.6 to 3.2 mm) slices from onions not exceeding 3-3/4″ (95 mm) in diameter. Parts are available for slice thickness up to 5/16″ (7.9 mm). Onions should be topped and tailed and peeled. Use stainless steel contact parts and 2 horsepower motor with drive for 342 revolutions per minute impeller speed. Note: Centrifugal slicing principle of the CC Slicer does not provide for complete orientation of onions so that rings will be produced. A reasonable percentage of slices will be transverse to the axis of the onion resulting in rings, while other slices may be parallel to the axis.

Processing of onions on the Sprint 2 Dicer – 1/8 up to 1″ (3.2 up to 25.4 mm) dices and various strips of onion. Remove any tough, outer skin to minimize accumulation on knife edge. ​Use conveyor discharge version for optimal controlled, complete, gentle discharge of cut product to reduce waste. Accepts product input up to 6.5″ (165.1 mm) in any dimension – precut product as necessary. Offers more power versus the DiversaCut Sprint Dicer. More power equals potentially higher capacities.
