The Urschel M VersaPro (MVP) 2D dicer excels in processing of meat, poultry, and alternative proteins. The machine provides the best in sanitary design and the ultimate in versatile cutting of all types of protein.
“After years of R&D, Urschel is proud to release the MVP. Thank you to all of the leading processors who shared with us their must-have wish lists and to those who allowed in-plant testing,” states Alan Major, CSO.
The MVP offers 33% increased feeding capacity versus the standard M6 due to wider belts, optimized cutting, and increased horsepower. The belt-fed MVP delivers 2D dices, strips, or shreds from product of a predetermined thickness.
Wider 12-in. infeed and takeaway belts work together to provide even transitioning of product and the prevention of product buildup. The takeaway belt facilitates discharging into totes.
The dicer has stainless-steel construction throughout. Hinged panels provide easy and complete access to promote sanitation and ease of maintenance, without having to rest any panels on the production floor.
A patented, fluted crosscut option provides gentler cutting action. A deeper circular knife feeds drum penetration, producing an improved cutting method. The crosscut is driven by a 5 hp (3.7 kW) motor equipped with a variable frequency drive to allow adjustment of the cut size without the additional expense of changing parts. Other active cutting components are driven by a 5 or 7.5 hp (3.7 or 5.6 kW) motor.
An available intuitive touchscreen HMI option easily gathers data; monitors machine components, including sensors and amperage; adjusts operating speeds; and saves recipes. The touchscreen swivels for full visibility.
Designed for continuous operation for uninterrupted production, the dicer has an IP69K-certified electrical enclosure that features a double-sealed door for extra protection during washdowns. The mechanical zone is isolated from the product zone to promote sanitation.
