The VS 12 D is particularly suitable for slicing sausage, ham, bacon, smoked meats, roast meats, other meats and beef olives. It works happily in the butcher's, grocer's and baker's as well as in the delicatessen and in the kitchen. Everywhere, where highly flexible operation and decorative and appealing presentation of sliced food is required.

For this, the VS 12 D offers countless presentation shapes with extensive, simple selection options as well as storing a default delivery presentation at switch-on.

The VS 12 D cuts cleanly, safely and quickly - from the first slice to the last. Taking care of this is a powerful, low-noise blade drive together with the proven, first-class hollowground blade of hard chrome-plated special steel. The adjustable product support located in close proximity to the slicing position effectively prevents downward movement of the product.

Up to now it was quite a lot of work and furthermore, some talent was needed to make a decorative presentation of a sliced product. The VS 12 D has an electronically driven slice deposit which offers completely new options. Delivery of slices occurs automatically - untouched by hand. The following programs are available:

• Shingling in 3 rows, "longitudinal" and "transverse"
• Stacking with one product (maximum diameter 105 mm), up to 2 stacks one behind the other
• Double-stacking with one product up to 4 stacks adjacent and one behind the other
• Circular presentation in 3 circles onto the delivery table

The delivery program makes it easy for you:

• Permanent display of numbers of slices and portions
• Selection of numbers of slices with "+" and "-"
• Selection of number of slices in all three circular presentation modes is possible
• Storing of a sliced presentation pattern via the "SET" key.

In both automatic and manual modes, the VS 12 D offers highly-reliable operation and maximum safety. Perfect all-round protection and the low position of the slide for easy handling enables fast and fatigue-free working. The practical Quick remnant holder retains food product remainders with its plastic spikes and therefore minimizes loss of cut ends and segments.

Cutting power can be continuously adjusted. Wafer-thin slices can be cut using the extended scale in the range 0 to 3 mm.

The VS 12 D is extremely rugged - it can be heavily loaded and is corrosion-free even in continuous automatic mode. Slide, stop plate, scraper and blade cover are constructed of precision anodized aluminum. Proven sliding channels guarantee clean, effortless sliding of the product to be sliced. The guides incorporated within the machine casing make for easy running of the slide.

• In fully-automatic mode, with its motorized slide drive it offers the advantage of automatically slicing and arranging the sliced goods in portions, ideal for carrying out customer orders or preparing for the weekend rush of customers. The slicing performance can be controlled via three slide speeds and three stroke lengths. That means an individual cutting speed for every product.
• In manual mode, it shines through its smooth and precise sliding action and food product-holding mechanism. Due to the automatic slice deposit it is possible to increase the communication between you and your customer during the slicing process, if used in a regular shop.

In both operating modes, the variety of delivery shapes is one of the crucial performance criteria of the Bizerba VS 12 D. Not to forget the particularly efficient handling and fast, easy cleaning.
