The Grote S/A-530-2E is a used industrial slicer-applicator — sometimes referred to as a slicing and portioning machine — designed to cut product into uniform slices and place them directly onto a production line conveyor, or alternatively to slice in bulk mode. Grote is a well-established American manufacturer of food processing equipment, long recognised for high-speed slicing and topping application machinery serving the meat, cheese, pizza, sandwich, and convenience food industries.
This machine is built for multi-lane, high-throughput production environments where consistent slice weight, precise placement, and repeatable portion aesthetics are critical. It accommodates product up to 6 inches (152.4 mm) in diameter and can slice to a standard maximum thickness of 0.5 inches (12.7 mm). The cutting zone is available in three widths — 22 inches (558.8 mm), 30 inches (762 mm), or 40 inches (1,016 mm) — allowing it to be matched to different line widths and output requirements.
In slice-and-apply mode, the machine operates at up to 150 strokes per minute per lane, while stack-and-shingle operation — in which slices are layered or fanned — runs at up to 120 strokes per minute per lane. The unit is designed for multi-head, multi-lane configuration, meaning the number of slicing heads and lanes can be adapted to suit a specific production line and product type. Product loading is continuous and gravity-fed, with an optional low-level sensor available to reduce downtime between product charges.
Electrical supply is 400 V, three-phase, 50 Hz, with a full-load amperage of 8.0 A. Overall machine dimensions are 2,100 × 1,200 × 2,000 mm (L × W × H). Operator control is via an intuitive touchscreen panel. The hygienic construction is designed for efficient washdown in line with food industry standards. The machine was manufactured in the USA in 2011 and is currently located in Poland.
