A clean slicer is an efficient slicer. Learn the best cleaning practices and which models are easier to clean.

A slicer is an essential tool for cutting meat, cured meats, vegetables, fish, and even cheese.
While some slicers, like those for household use, are used infrequently, those used in butcher's shops, delicatessens, restaurants or canteens are always functioning. That’s why, accurate maintenance is essential to keep it operative over time.
A clean and efficient slicer significantly impacts food hygiene.
Cleaning and sanitising your slicer extends its life, ensuring slicing precision while preserving the food’s properties.
Therefore, maintenance after use is essential to keep the machine efficient without contaminating the food.

##Removable components

All cleaning operations must take place while the machine is turned off. Therefore, even if it may sound obvious, remember to unplug the machine before starting maintenance. We recommend setting the slice thickness to zero before turning off the slicer. This way, you can carry out all the other operations smoothly and safely since the thickness gauge will protect the blade.

The slicer’s components must be washed daily or several times a day in case of intensive use.

Once you turn off the machine, we recommend removing all the removable parts. Slicers with removable parts help you clean and wash the machine more easily.

For example, Sirman’s Legend flywheel slicer can be used manually or automatically. But what sets it apart is its unique feature of a removable carriage that can be effortlessly washed.

## Stonhenge

Sirman offers a range of machines with Stonehenge ceramic treatment. This treatment is applied to the machine’s removable components, making them dishwasher friendly. Depending on the version, this treatment can be applied to the entire machine. This way, slicing products that tend to create more friction, such as cheese, has never been easier.

![Palladio Top Stonehenge-resize.jpg](https://sirman-corporate-prod-s3-images.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/Palladio_Top_Stonehenge_resize_b5a301bb61.jpg)

##The blade

The blade is the most used part of the slicer, so it needs to be cleaned thoroughly after use. Clean the blade regularly using a specific degreaser, a suitable sanitiser or hot water and soap.
You can also remove it using a blade remover for more accurate cleaning. However, a well-designed machine always has enough space to allow you to clean the blade thoroughly without having to remove it every time.

The machine’s structure can be cleaned less frequently than other components. However, it’s good practice to remove residues using a sponge. Rinse and dry the structure every time you clean it.

##The structure

Sirman’s slicers stand out for their rounded shape and elegant line.
However, despite their visually striking appearance, the key advantage of these slicers is the convenience they offer during the cleaning process. In fact, cleaning and drying a rounded surface is much easier than cleaning the edges and protrusions on squared surfaces. Sirman’s extensive experience and constant research have led towards this choice, even if it implies a higher number of production stages and greater energy and resource expenditure.
Sirman slicers are manufactured using a gravity die-casting process with an anodised alloy within a shell mould to make its food-grade surfaces. This process prevents the structure from wearing over time. The result is a clean, durable and homogenous hard surface. Although this process has multiple advantages, it requires a lot of energy and resources during production, involving several steps and, therefore, long lead times.
For example, the casting stage takes place by gravity and not by pressure because we use top-quality alloys to undergo the electrolytic process, which is essential for food-grade machines. Moreover, the structure coming out of the mould has a rough surface that must be polished using methods suited to the machine’s rounded shapes.

![15359002S_P_raffaello-350-evo-top.jpg](https://sirman-corporate-prod-s3-images.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/15359002_S_P_raffaello_350_evo_top_5161216a56.jpg)

##Sharpening the blade

Once the machine is clean, you can sharpen the blade.
Sharpening the slicer’s blade helps you preserve its quality, ensuring precise slices and reduced product waste. When you start noticing a drop in the slicing quality and more product going to waste, it's time to sharpen the slicer.

Sirman has fitted the slicer with a sharpener for various reasons. Firstly, having the tool in sight will encourage the operator to sharpen the blade periodically. Butchers always sharpen their knives right before slicing. So why not do the same for the slicer’s blade to ensure a top-rate service?

Having the sharpener in sight prevents you from taking incorrect actions, such as using incompatible tools.
Another reason that has led Sirman to opt for this solution is that every slicer is obtained from a mould, which is then honed and polished. While this process makes every machine unique, it could also affect the positioning of the sharpener, causing damage.
The sharpener is adjusted based on the individual slicer, and having it on the machine is convenient and functional. Moreover, Sirman has installed an upper and lower protective cover to make sure it remains clean and undamaged.


Once again, Sirman presents a wide range of slicers that meet multiple needs thanks to its experience, continuous research, and obsessive attention to detail. Every product is thoughtfully designed to be user-friendly, offering remarkable potential for an exceptional user experience.
Every product of the TOP range (optional for other models) comes with a maintenance kit to allow you to take care of your slicer autonomously. But remember that Sirman is always happy to help your slicer achieve maximum performance.




Cleaning your slicer: easy-to-clean models and tips for impeccable maintenance

legend.jpg

Many kitchen appliances facilitate, speed up, and improve processes. For example, dough mixers or meat grinders speed up operations and make them less tiring for the operator. If the chef or butcher is skilled enough, they can achieve the same results manually, but it will obviously take more time and effort. On the contrary, slicers are irreplaceable because even the most experienced professionals won’t be able to replicate the same slice manually.

Over the years, Sirman has changed, adapted, and fine-tuned its slicers based on their intended use and users’ needs. That’s why it offers a wide range of slicers. See them all listed below and choose the one that best suits your needs.

##Strength: speed

Speed is a relevant factor in supermarkets, canteens, and restaurants. Slicing fast and precisely is the strength of inclined slicers. The blade inclination allows the product to slide automatically along the tray as it’s cut. The inclination angle is a choice influenced by various factors, including the slicing position, the space available for the slices, and the speed of execution. The more inclined the blade, the more the product slides towards it. As a result, the inclined slicer facilitates and speeds up the slicing process.

Palladio, Sirman’s electric slicer, is ideal for the large-scale catering industry. In addition, its rounded shape facilitates and speeds up cleaning operations. This machine is made of die-cast aluminium. Making this machine requires a massive amount of molten metal compared to what will make up the machine. Moreover, top-quality metal alloys are needed for the final anodising stage. The electrolytic process results in clean, long-lasting, and homogeneous food-grade aluminium, which stands out for its hardness and strength.

![SLICERS_PALLADIO 330 EVO_CE.jpg](https://sirman-corporate-dev-s3-images.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/SLICERS_PALLADIO_330_EVO_CE_e9bee27552.jpg)


##Strength: precision

The vertical slicer is considered a premium model in the slicing industry. Vertical slicers are more technical since they feature a double plate. The product is first fixed to the first plate and slides on the second plate. As a result, part of the product protrudes from the plate every time it’s sliced. The vertical machine ensures increased precision because the operator brings the product closer to the blade, ensuring homogeneity. Vertical slicers are perfect for those who want a precise slice, even for large products. Moreover, these slicers prevent the operator from adopting an uncomfortable posture.

The Mantegna slicer is the high-end electric vertical version designed for the catering industry. It has a rounded shape and, like most of Sirman’s professional slicers, it’s made of die-cast anodised aluminium. The subsequent electrolytic process increases the machine’s corrosion resistance, making it food-grade. In addition, Sirman’s vertical slicer is equipped with a sharpener to facilitate and speed up sharpening operations.

![SLICERS_MANTEGNA_350_VCO_CE.jpg](https://sirman-corporate-dev-s3-images.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/SLICERS_MANTEGNA_350_VCO_CE_1bd00f035b.jpg)

##Strength: aesthetics

The manual flywheel slicer is exceptionally charming. Displayed in restaurants, it inspires customers to order something that involves its use. However, its clean lines hide its technical complexity. This slicer activates manually by rotating the flywheel connected to the blade and trolley while the carriage runs at a fixed rate at every turn of the blade. Sirman’s flywheel slicers are beautiful, precise, and functional. Italian charcuterie is getting increasingly popular even outside of Italy, evoking nostalgic memories. Sirman’s flywheel slicer recreates Italy’s poetic and convivial atmosphere. It’s no coincidence that the first thing that pops into people’s minds when they hear the word “Italy” is excellent food.

Sirman’s flagship machine can be used in manual and electric modes. We’re talking about the Legend slicer. When in electric mode, the carriage moves forward as the blade rotates autonomously. The only thing the operator has to do is to arrange the slice on the board or tray. As easy as that! In manual mode, the operator can move the carriage manually through the handwheel while the blade rotates electrically. This machine needs extreme precision during construction and assembly. Sirman’s handwheel slicer is articulated and, thus, recommended for cutting the same product for a long time. Since it runs both in electric and manual mode, the Legend slicer is fitted with a gauge plate for safety reasons. This way, the operator arranges the slices on the tray without having to make samples first. By activating the manual mode, the gauge plate opens while the plate moves forward according to the desired thickness. Therefore, the product doesn’t come into contact with any surface when cut, preventing even the slightest friction.

Legend is not a new version of a vintage slicer. It’s a modern machine whose mechanical and aesthetic details are designed to promote function and cleanliness. Moreover, it’s the only flywheel slicer on the market that allows users to remove the carriage for cleaning operations.

##Strength: small size

Sirman’s Mirra electric slicer is compact and essential. This gravity-feed slicer is practical and fits into small spaces. Due to its reduced size, this professional electric slicer is the favourite for bars, bistros, and small restaurants. Mirra is highly appreciated, even in Northern Europe. You can find it in shops and supermarkets because it can slice cured meats with the smallest circumference while ensuring a medium-intense use. As the majority of Sirman’s professional slicers, Mirra is made of die-cast aluminium, which is anodised during the final stage.

##Strength: more than meat and cold cuts

Sirman provides special toothed or Teflon-coated blades or ceramic slicers for slicing products like cheese, which tends to stick to the machine when it reaches high temperatures. Stonehenge models allow for easy cleaning. The removable parts can even be washed in the dishwasher. Stonehenge is Sirman’s range of ceramic-coated slicers. Moreover, Sirman provides special containers for these products. For example, Food Tube 2.0 is an accessory that allows operators to cut vegetables into several slices at a time. To cut smoked salmon, Sirman recommends Poseidon, an accessory that allows fish to slide and be cut in a fast and impeccable way.

##Strength: technology


IoT can be applied to Sirman’s medium and large slicers. It improves the machine’s potential without making it less user-friendly. Moreover, it monitors the machine’s contactors, consumption, and motor temperature. IoT helps manage maintenance and replacements of consumables like blades or grinders without machine downtime. For safety reasons, the machine turns off automatically to prevent operators from leaving it on due to its silent operation.

We've only looked at a small portion of Sirman's product line because the company's actual strength lies in its ability to tailor its equipment to the industry and the demands and priorities of the users. The experience and investments in research and development have led Sirman to focus on every detail of its slicers.
