With over 50 years experience, Noaw is a leading manufacturer of professional slicing machines. Its Italian manufacturing facility is equipped with the most technologically advanced production machinery and processes so as to guarantee the highest quality and reliability of slicers available. Three heavy-duty, manual-feed, belt-driven machines are available. Featuring a built in sharpening head and blade ring-guard, the machines are also easy to disassemble without tools for thorough cleaning. Heavy duty slicers offer a larger one-piece anodized aluminium base and the use of more robust components than the medium duty slicers. The machines are designed for handling larger volumes and offer more powerful motors than the equivalent (blade size) medium duty slicer. Furthermore, an additional ergonomic handle along with double roller bearings provide smoother and easier carriage movement.
