What are vegetable cutters, and why are they needed in catering establishments
A vegetable cutter is one of the most common types of kitchen cutter. It greatly facilitates the work of the cook, makes it possible to make a fresh salad in a short time, cut vegetables for preparing a hot dish.
Using all kinds of nozzles, you can cut vegetables in different ways. Vegetable cutters in catering kitchens cut vegetables into strips, sticks, slices, cubes and prisms ─ the shape depends on the design of the vegetable cutter knife.
Most vegetable cutters are used to cut both raw and cooked vegetables.Principle of operation
Vegetables enter the working chamber, usually a cylinder, vegetables fall from the funnel for loading, there are knives, cutting grates and pistons in the chamber, discs, depending on the type of machine, which, after starting the mechanism, come into action and start chopping vegetables with knives or a cutting grate, the finished product poured into a special container.
Main types
The industry produces mechanical and manual vegetable cutters. For catering, as a rule, they use mechanical ones, manual ones are rarely used, at very small fast food outlets.
The classification of vegetable cutters is based on how and with what (knife, disc, knife grate) vegetables are cut.
Disc vegetable cutters - vegetables are pressed against a rotating disc with a knife and cut. By setting a different distance between the knife and the disc, you can get pieces of different sizes. And the shape depends on the design of the installed knife. Such vegetable cutters are most often bought for catering kitchens.
There is a classification of disk machines according to the type of knife:
- wiping;
- grating;
- slicer.
Modern vegetable cutters may not have knives at all, but cut vegetables with discs.
These are rotary machines. In the working chamber there is a rotor with a disk attached to it, and blades are attached to the disk. After the vegetable cutter is turned on, the blades begin to move, developing centrifugal force. Vegetables, falling from above, thanks to this force, are evenly distributed along the walls and then begin to slide down, meeting with fixed knives, and crumble into different shapes depending on the design of the knives. 
Punch have a completely different device. They have a fixed knife grate of a certain design, on which vegetables are pressed with a piston, with the help of which they are cut, falling into a special container.
There are combined vegetable cutters, where vegetables are cut with both rotating knives and a fixed knife grate.
According to the way the cutting devices are located inside the machine, vegetable cutters are horizontal, vertical, inclined.
All vegetable cutters, depending on performance, are divided into groups:
- large - the productivity of such vegetable cutters is from 300 to 900 kg of vegetables per hour; they have two rotation speeds, they process both boiled and raw foods; there are two openings for loading: large and small; the hopper is removed for washing; they are suitable for the kitchens of large institutions;
- medium - productivity from 80 to 250 kg of vegetables per hour; the rotation speed of the knives is low, this allows you to cut raw and boiled vegetables into cubes and slices, including for french fries;
- small - productivity up to 60 kg of vegetables per hour; can only process raw vegetables and cheese; designed for catering establishments with a traffic of no more than 80 people per day.
- How to choose this equipment for catering
How to choose quality equipment
The vegetable cutter must meet the following requirements:
- pieces of cut vegetables should have a given shape and size;
- cut pieces should not fall apart, crack and have irregularities;
- waste should be minimal;
- fruits and vegetables should not deform and release juice.
Any vegetable cutter has such an indicator as the number of kilograms of vegetables skipped per hour. This also needs to be calculated.
All parts that come into contact with vegetables should be easy to remove and wash.
It is worth considering additional functions of a vegetable cutter: 
- a special hole for long vegetables and fruits (for example, for cucumbers and bananas);
- a pusher handle that allows you to stop and start the machine when necessary;
- additional rubs for mashed potatoes;
- knives for shredding cabbage;
- grater disks.
must be taken into account and machine size: it should not take up a lot of workspace. The safety of personnel is also important: the equipment must have a caliper to protect fingers.

From foreign companies producing industrial vegetable cutters, you should pay attention to Italian Fimar, it produces such machines of different capacities, mostly disc machines without knives. For example, vegetable cutter FimarTV2500, designed to process from 100 to 300 kg of vegetables per hour. The cost is 32 thousand rubles.

The company produces disk vegetable cutters that perform all types of cuts that are required in catering establishments. The cost is from 35 thousand rubles, depending on the power and functions.

Designed for cutting and rubbing vegetables. The approximate price is from 32 to 40 thousand rubles, depending on the performance and number of nozzles.

The vegetable cutter reduces the lead time for orders for fresh salads.The modern business in the field of catering involves the mechanization of the cooking process, electrical appliances for cutting vegetables are an indispensable part of this phenomenon.
Hello. I have a delivery service for lunches in offices. Every day there are three different salads on the menu, usually with boiled ingredients. Naturally, I want to optimize the process of cutting vegetables. But this turns out to be a big problem. We have already tried 3 vegetable cutters of different prices and all of them cannot cut boiled vegetables with high quality. Raw ones are cut, and boiled ones are almost mashed. Do you have vegetable cutters on your site that can cope with this task, and if so, please give a link to a video showing how it works. Thanks in advance for your reply.
No one wants to spend too much time in the kitchen. And few people like to give their time to cutting vegetables, fruits and other products. But without it, nowhere. An electric vegetable cutter will come to the rescue. Its price is affordable for most buyers. And the benefits are undeniable. Instead of lengthy slicing of food, you will get neat pieces in just a few minutes.
Among the variety of manufacturers and models of various shredders, you can get lost. Therefore, we propose to figure out together what an electric professional vegetable cutter for the home can be and what to look for first of all when buying it.
Multifunctional vegetable cutters
Most people prefer this type. Multifunctional electric household vegetable cutters allow you to perform many types of work. That is why they are so popular among housewives. They have a number of advantages:
- Compact and do not take up much space in the kitchen. For them there is always a place in the closet.
- They are easy to use.
- They have good performance.
- Allows you to reduce the time spent on cooking.
A larger electric vegetable cutter for raw vegetables can be part of a food processor. In this case, the large dimensions of the device require a separately prepared storage space. And washing and cleaning it will take more time.
Shredder with meat grinder (2 in 1)
A professional electric vegetable cutter for the home, one of the functions of which is chopping meat, is also popular. The use of two functions at once (slicing and meat grinder) significantly expands the number of cooked dishes. Plus, you do not need to spend money again on the purchase of a second device. With proper care and use, this device will last for more than one year.
dicing
An electric vegetable cutter that can cut food into cubes belongs to the class of specialized devices. Its presence as a separate item is not necessary at all. Most vegetable cutters have special attachments that allow you to cut into cubes all the necessary ingredients in a few minutes. But if you really want to buy this product separately, then why not? Manufacturers offer a wide range of them.
Selection rules
A professional electric vegetable cutter for the home will serve for a long time if it is chosen in accordance with some recommendations.
First of all, you should pay attention to the materials from which the device is made. The best option is a shredder made of stainless steel. In second place is durable non-toxic plastic.
Make sure that the electric raw vegetable cutter is also suitable for chopping cooked foods. This option will come in handy. For example, for cutting ingredients for a salad.
Give preference to those models in which removable elements can be replaced. For the most part, this applies to knives. They often have to be changed.
Another important detail is the protection of cutting elements. Cutting parts must not be accessible to hands during operation.
Pay attention to the manufacturer. It is better to give preference to companies that have already established themselves on the positive side.
Following these simple tips will allow you to make the right choice in favor of a high-quality and reliable device.
Manufacturers and prices
The durability of equipment directly depends on its manufacturer. From how the assembly process took place, whether all the necessary steps and checks were completed, what materials were used. Therefore, it is so important to choose the right manufacturer.
Today, in the market of small household appliances, you can find products from manufacturers from different countries: Russia, Germany, Japan, Italy, Poland and others.
A Russian-made electric vegetable cutter is often sold at a better price than its counterparts. But this is not due to the fact that its quality is worse. For the most part, this concerns the economic situation and the depreciation of the ruble.
If we talk about specific brands, then you should pay attention to Philips, Mulineks, Bosch. These manufacturers are the most popular with buyers. This is evidenced by thematic forums, reviews in online stores. But the products of these companies have their drawbacks. The vegetable cutter electric professional for the house has small power. Plus, the first two manufacturers produce vegetable cutters without a bowl. Due to this, additional cleaning of the table will be required.
An electric vegetable cutter can be purchased for an average of three to six thousand rubles. The specific price depends on the selected manufacturer and the functions performed by the device.
Rating of the best shredders
When buying an electric shredder, you can focus on the compiled ratings. There are a lot of them. Let's take a look at one of them.
In the first place - Fresh Express Cube DJ905 from Mulinex. Possesses a wide range of nozzles. This is shredding into strips, slices, dicing.

Minus - the cube nozzle is hard to clean. The disadvantages include the price, which is 9.5 thousand rubles.
In second position is the Philips HR1388 multi-cutter, which allows you to cut vegetables, fruits, cheese, sausages and so on. Five functions that allow you to chop, cut into slices and sticks of various sizes, including cooking french fries. Produced in Turkey. Its cost is 4.2 thousand rubles.

He copes with his tasks easily and quickly. The advantages include small size and attractive design, low cost. Of the minuses - low power and an insufficient number of nozzles.
Care rules
An electric household vegetable cutter will last a long time if you follow the necessary rules during operation.
After each use, the containers and knives are washed with detergent in warm water. Some models can be washed in the dishwasher. But for this there should be an indication in the instructions. After washing, all parts just need to be dried and folded.
There are no more conditions. Simple care will allow you to enjoy your assistant for a very long time.
Housework is too exhausting, and that's why every housewife loves the new wonders of technology so much to help make this homework easier. One of these miracles is a device for cutting vegetables or simply a vegetable cutter. These little helpers have joined our lives for a long time, and now we simply cannot imagine how it would be without a quick way to cut different products.
But let's find out a little more by looking at the types of vegetable cutters, their differences among themselves, as well as getting acquainted with the models that vegetable cutter manufacturers can offer on the market in 2019.
Shredding raw vegetables and cooked hams - what is a vegetable cutter suitable for?
First of all, I would like to clarify that not always a vegetable cutter for vegetables is suitable only for vegetables. Its different types can also easily work with fruits, berries and even meat, not to mention cheeses and sausages. At its core, a vegetable cutter is an improved, more convenient and efficient grater, a kind of special device for cutting salads that can work with fresh, boiled and fried foods.
WATCH VIDEO
Some vegetable cutters can even make artistic cuts, but all the additional functions, as well as the types of products that this device can work with, are often covered in the instructions themselves. And yet, it is best to understand this issue by dividing vegetable cutters according to the principle: electric or manual cutting. And now we'll figure it out.
Manual vegetable cutter - mechanical thunderstorm of fresh vegetables
The first type of devices we are dismantling today is manual. A mechanical vegetable cutter for the home is needed to more efficiently slice vegetables and fruits. It won't help you get through this slicing process particularly quickly, it takes a lot of effort to work with it, but the hand-held device works with a large number of products, and also allows you to cut more finely.
It can also be added to its disadvantages that if you need to cut vegetables into cubes more convenient for salads, a manual vegetable cutter will not give you such an opportunity. She shreds, rubs vegetables and fruits inside herself, by scrolling the handle. You can call it a more efficient analogue of a standard grater, which does not reach the level of an eclectic competitor, but is much more budgetary.
Electric vegetable cutter - cutting vegetables into cubes, slices and other shapes
The second type, which is more common in the homes of our country, is wildly popular and really makes life easier for many housewives - an electric vegetable cutter.
Most often you can find models similar to food processors, sometimes there are those that are similar to meat grinders. Choosing a more convenient option for you can take quite a long time. Almost all models of electric vegetable cutters allow you to work with other products, and therefore you can often hear the name “electric multi-cutter”. We will try to help with the choice of the device suitable for your family now.
A high-quality manual grater or a powerful electric grater - how to choose the right option?
Before choosing a new model for yourself, think carefully about why you are buying this machine. Let's say you need a device for cutting vegetables into cubes, and then the choice is obvious - electric. However, about its declared power. You need to think carefully about the number of nozzles and knives so as not to overpay for something that you will not use. Here are a few things you should think about well:
- Manual models sometimes have, and sometimes do not have, a special container for collecting cuts. Do you need his presence in the set, given the fact that he will also constantly need to be rinsed?
- The number of nozzles in some vegetable cutters rolls over. If you only need a machine for dicing various products, as well as for finely chopping greens, then why overpay for the rest of the set?
- The high power of an electrical appliance can play you a minus if this appliance starts to scatter chopped pieces of pop all over the table. Specify what power the model you are interested in has, so as not to be mistaken with the choice.
- Be sure to find out from the reviews about the build quality of the device. Even an ordinary manual vegetable cutter for raw vegetables can be of poor quality and break on the first day.
- Think carefully about how important the manufacturer is to you. A brand is good and says a lot, but less well-known analogues can cope with the simplest tasks.
If you read carefully and remember everything, then finding the very best model will be completely easy for you.

More recently, a vegetable cutter could only help in chopping cabbage. Now there are many devices that greatly simplify the process of cooking. You can buy a simple food processor and solve all the difficulties, but its large dimensions will not fit into every kitchen, and cleaning so many knives and attachments is extremely tiring. Therefore, a vegetable cutter will be a suitable solution to problems.
This device allows you to easily chop vegetables or fruits, cut cheese, chop eggs and much more. Of course, it would be possible to do all this with an ordinary knife or grater. But with a vegetable cutter, everything will turn out much faster and easier, besides, cubes or slices will turn out even and neat.
Features of use
Today, the design is an effective and thoughtful device for quickly chopping products: vegetables and fruits, cheese, eggs and more. The main purpose of the unit is extremely fast and convenient cutting of products. To do this, the vegetable cutter has a complete set of blades and knives in stock.
Main advantages
The main advantages of the device are:
- compact dimensions;
- safe application;
- convenient storage.
And also the advantage, of course, is the fact that a mechanical vegetable cutter does not require a connection to the network, thereby does not waste electricity. Compared to ordinary knives, a vegetable cutter can be used much more efficiently. The vegetable cutter will cope with the shredding many times faster, which in the end will save time.
Types of vegetable cutters
Due to the frequent and widespread use of the vegetable shredder, many types have arisen. Some types of vegetable cutters operate exclusively in mechanical mode, in order to use them, efforts will be required. In addition, the use of a mechanical grater requires some skill.
All mechanical vegetable cutters differ in the principle of service. There are five most popular types of handheld devices.
Types of mechanical vegetable cutters
- The most famous mechanical manual vegetable cutter is an ordinary metal mesh, which is framed with a special plastic frame that strengthens the entire structure. It is not at all difficult to chop vegetables or fruits, you just need to put the product close to the grid plane and press it with effort. Unfortunately, not all products can be cut using such a device; it can be used for hard vegetables or other not very soft products. For example, it is not suitable for boiled eggs and too soft vegetables or fruits. Ideal for cutting potatoes or carrots. Such manual vegetable cutters are sold at an affordable price and do not require special maintenance. The package may include sets of all kinds of nozzles for chopping cubes, slices, include a separate egg cutter, a stopper for vegetables, and so on.
- The second type of mechanical manual vegetable cutter is the V-knife. The kit also includes a piece that holds a vegetable or fruit, while protecting hands. The peculiarity of the work resembles the first type of grater: in this case, all kinds of blade shapes are inserted into the plastic base of the body. Such a grater will chop straws, cubes, slices, etc. The main rule is to work carefully with the holder, because the blades are very sharp.
- The third type of mechanical manual vegetable cutters for vegetables is a small-sized combine. In action, it is similar to an ordinary coffee grinder. It consists of a container with knives where products are placed. The top is closed with a lid with a handle, when rotated, the handle gives a move to the knives and they begin to chop the food. This unit is able to chop products in different ways, the shape of the cut depends on the selected knife.
