Abstract
A slicing/shaving machine particularly adapted for high speed slicing/shaving or food products in which at least one slicing/shaving blade defines a slicing/shaving edge of a generally arcuate configuration. The blade is carried by a slicing/shaving drum which is rotated about an axis to impart a circular path of travel to the slicing/shaving edge disposed at an angle other than parallel thereto. The product is fed/guided generally radially toward the slicing/shaving edge and is sliced/shaved thereby along the circular path in a continuous high speed fashion.
