The Centerline by Hobart EDGE13A-11 is a premium commercial-grade slicer designed for high-volume kitchens demanding precision and durability. With a 13" chrome-plated carbon steel blade, this automatic slicer maximizes yield while minimizing downtime. The thin-edge blade can be honed in just 15 seconds using the removable top-mount ceramic sharpener, which can even be submerged in water for easy cleaning—saving time and maintaining sharpness without sacrificing hygiene. The permanent knife ring guard ensures safety during operation and cleaning, while the 0.5 HP motor delivers consistent performance whether slicing meat, cheese, or other products. Ideal for delis, butcher shops, and restaurants, this slicer combines Hobart’s legendary reliability with Centerline’s innovative design, including a Poly-V belt drive system that reduces maintenance and noise for a quieter workspace.
