USDA accepted, the Urschel cheese dicer is designed with the cutting zone completely separate from the mechanical zone. The Affinity Integra-D three-dimensional dicer accepts product up to 4.5 in. in size, delivered to a feed hopper. Impeller paddles carry the product past a slicing knife, while an adjustable slice gate at the top of the case determines slice thickness. Slices pass between the rotating feed drum and feed spindle, and then enter the circular knives, where they are cut into strips, which pass directly into crosscut knives where the final cuts are made. The stripper plate removes product from the spaces between the circular knives and acts as a shear edge for the crosscut knives.
