Nemco NTS0060 Easy Tomato Slicer 6.25mm Cut 10 Blades

The Nemco NTS0060 is a manual easy tomato slicer that draws a whole tomato through a gang of 10 razor-sharp blades to give an even 6.25mm slice in one pass. It is the thicker of the two cuts in the original range. The blade carriage runs on a self-lubricating track, which the supplier specifies to resist the misalignment that nicks and breaks blades on a slicer of this type. It needs no power, no outlet and no electrician.

Why operators choose the NTS0060

• 6.25mm cut across 10 blades — the substantial slice. At 6.25 mm the tomato holds its shape in a burger or a stacked sandwich instead of disappearing into it, and it grills and chars without collapsing
• Self-lubricating track — the supplier's named wear feature. A blade gang that drifts out of line is what nicks blades and ruins slices, so the track material is doing the work that keeps the machine cutting true
• Razor-sharp blades, one pass — the tomato is drawn through rather than pressed down onto a board, which is what keeps the flesh intact and the slice even from end to end
• Compact against the alternatives — the supplier claims around 60 per cent less bench space than comparable units. On a sandwich or burger bench, where slicing tomato is a daily job and space is the constraint, that is the practical argument
• 4 kg net — light enough to lift down and strip properly at the end of service, which matters on a machine that handles acidic produce all day
• Fully manual — no power, no outlet and no electrician, so it sits wherever the sandwich or burger section needs it

Specifications

Venue suitability

Built for a kitchen where the tomato is a component rather than a layer - a burger bar stacking a thick slice, a breakfast venue grilling tomato, a bistro plating a caprese or a tomato salad, or a pub kitchen. For maximum coverage and more slices per tomato, the NTS0045 cuts at 4.5 mm.

Installation & delivery

Nothing to connect. Allow bench space to suit the 360 x 160 x 170 mm body plus room in front for the carriage to run out through its full stroke — that travel, not the body, is what sets the space you actually need. The machine is manual, so there is no outlet, no switchboard work and no electrician. At 4 kg it lifts down easily for a proper wash, which is worth doing daily on a machine cutting acidic produce. Dispatched Australia-wide.

Also available as the NTS0045 at a 4.5 mm cut. The NTS1060 offers a 6 mm cut with an enclosed pre-tensioned blade cartridge.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What thickness does this model slice?

6.25mm, across 10 blades. The blade gang is fixed, so each machine cuts one thickness - Nemco covers the alternatives with separate models rather than an adjustable gang.

Q: Does it need power?

No. It is entirely hand-operated - no motor, no lead, no plug - so no outlet, no switchboard work and no electrician are needed.

Q: Is there a newer version of this machine?

Yes. The NTS1045 and NTS1060 are the Easy Tomato Slicer 2, where the blades sit in an enclosed pre-tensioned cartridge that the operator never adjusts. This original model uses the same cutting principle and is the more economical of the two.

Q: Will it slice anything other than tomatoes?

The supplier specifies and rates it as a tomato slicer, so that is what we will state for it. If you want a machine for firmer produce or for a range of thicknesses, ask our team and we will point you at the right one rather than stretch this machine's claims.

Q: Does the photograph show this exact model?

Treat it as representative. This model and its sibling share one product photograph on our source record, and the two are externally alike - the difference is the blade gang inside. The machine supplied is the NTS0060, Nemco code 55600-2, at the 6.25mm cut specified above.

Q: What warranty does it carry?

Twelve months, back to base. A warranty repair is carried out at the service agent's workshop and the machine returned to you, rather than a technician attending your site. Full terms are on our warranty information page.
