Unmatched slicing quality
and performance
Weber Slicer weSLICE 9500
The weSLICE 9500 is Weber’s most recent addition to
its high-performance slicing portfolio, once again raising
the benchmark relative to performance, yield, and
quality. Especially for demanding applications such as
4-fold cheese or 2-fold raw ham, the slicing quality and
performance is unparalleled. With the latest Weber DirectDrive
technology, all product feeding components
accurately guide the product, resulting in perfectly cut
and visually appealing slices while achieving maximum
portion weight accuracy and care for the product. Thus,
the weSLICE 9500 performs with maximum product yield
and minimum give-away. The weSlice 9500 also features
the renowned Weber Durablade Performance involute
blade ensuring top slicing quality. All blades at the core
of the slicers are developed and manufactured by Weber,
incorporating years of expertise and innovation. The
latest flagship slicer weSLICE 9500 additionally features
Vario technology, contributing to its exeptional performance.
When the Weber vacuum gripper technology is
used, the product yield increases even further, as end
pieces are reduced by more than half. The end result is
production with almost 100% weight-accurate portions
and very little give-away. The new Weber Slicer weSLICE
9500 also has a lot to offer with regards to ergonomics,
user-friendliness, and safety, such as the new toolfree
quick-change system for product grippers. Improved
cleaning options, increased serviceability and optimized
ergonomics, like easier access to conveyors, contribute to
maintenance of a hygienic environment during production.
The new weSLICE 9500 unlocks its full potential in the
complete line concept. In combination with Weber components
that are perfectly integrated and complementing
its performance, such as the wePRESS form press,
the wePICK pick robot, and the wePACK thermoforming
packaging machine the weSlice 9500 helps to push line
solution thinking forward. With complete line integration,
the slicer can optimize line speed to ensure an even
transport of the portion, or automatically increase or decrease
the speed of subsequent components. The line’s
ability to self-optimize therefore leads to an overall increase
in production quality.
