<p>In a slicing machine, it is known to have means for holding a mass of material to be sliced, means for advancing the material for slicing and a cutting blade for cutting slices from the material. In this invention, a method is provided for producing slices of substantially uniform weight, and this method includes dividing a mass of material into blocks and bars and determining the density of each bar before slicing, which density may vary from bar to bar. Apparatus also is provided for feeding each bar forwardly for slicing at a constant speed for each bar, for slicing each bar at a predetermined slicing speed as it is fed forwardly, and for varying one of these speeds for each bar in accordance with the density of the bar to produce the slices of substantially uniform weight.</p> |
