The Optidrive precision motor enables meat slicers to offer the perfect cut, according to its maker. Speed and precision in automated cold meat slicing and packing machines needed to be accurate and efficient to minimise wastage and maximise profitability, claimed Invertek Drives. If the movement was not precise, the cut size could vary or jamming could occur, it explained. The Optidrive E3, a compact general-purpose drive, features application macros for industrial, pump and fan modes. "One of the drives controls the speed reducer that triggers the movement of the meat towards the rotating slicer," said Marcus Silva, Invertek Drives country manager for Latin America. "A motor rotates a thread that pushes the meat precisely. The movement, combined with the blade speed, results in the required slice size."
