What Is the SL-312 Onion Cutting Machine?

The machine outputs 600–1,000 kg/h. Leafy vegetables can be cut from 1 mm to 60 mm. Root vegetables can be sliced from 2 mm to 10 mm, shredded from 2 mm to 10 mm, or diced at 8, 10, 12, 15, or 20 mm.

When to Choose the SL-312?
Choose the SL-312 if your daily onion volume is high and you need a machine that can run continuously. This model works well when:
- You process 500 kg or more of onions per day.
- You also need to cut leafy vegetables such as green onions or leeks.
- You run a central kitchen, large restaurant chain, or food processing plant.
- You need a machine that fits into an automated vegetable prep line.
- Your facility has 380V three-phase power.
The double-head design keeps soft and hard vegetables separate. This prevents blade damage and keeps output stable during long shifts.
When to Choose the TZ-600?
Choose the TZ-600 if you need flexibility and have limited space or budget. This model is a better fit when:
- Your daily output is below 500 kg.
- You need one machine to shred, slice, dice, and strip cut.
- You run a small food processing business or restaurant supply kitchen.
- You have limited floor space.
- Your facility only supports 220V single-phase power.
The blade change takes less than five minutes. This makes it easy to switch between different cut types during the day.
Which Machine Should You Buy?
The decision depends on your production volume, space, and product range.
- Buy the SL-312 if you want high capacity, dual-purpose cutting, and continuous operation.
- Buy the TZ-600 if you want multi-function cutting, compact size, and lower power needs.
If you mainly process onions for seasoning, frozen food, or ready-meal production, both machines can handle the job. The SL-312 does it faster. The TZ-600 does it with more cutting styles in one unit.
