Bread slicer blade lubrication

Bread slicer blade lubrication
Commercial bakery bread slicers can cut up to 80 loaves per minute with blades moving at speeds exceeding 3,000 cuts per hour. These high-speed blades require food-grade lubricants that can handle the heat generated by friction while remaining safe if tiny amounts contact the bread. The lubricants must also resist flour dust buildup, which can form a paste when mixed with oil and cause blade jamming.
