Slicing and dicing line
Production machineEggplant Slicing & Dicing Machine
Stem removal and slicing or dicing are different processing steps with different equipment. DOKTEK FoodTech builds a dedicated slicing and dicing line, separate from its eggplant stem-cutting machine. The base machine is a mechanical disc slicer and dicer on a conveyor; machine-vision inspection can be added on the line as an option.

A Separate Line From DOKTEK's Stem-Cutting Machine
Stem or head removal and slicing or dicing solve different problems: one removes a fixed irregular feature, the other produces a repeatable cut across the whole product. DOKTEK FoodTech builds and sells them as separate lines rather than one machine trying to do both.
They handle the product differently. The stem cutter locates each fruit with machine vision before the cut; the slicing and dicing line feeds product through a disc slicing head and a dicing grid on a conveyor, and machine-vision inspection is added on the line only when a project needs it.
Not Locked to One Vegetable
The slicing and dicing line is already used on eggplant and cucumber, and DOKTEK evaluates other vegetables case by case rather than restricting the platform to a fixed product list.
Cut geometry is set by the slicing disc and the dicing grid, which are exchanged for the product and the target cut rather than reprogrammed — so changing vegetable or dice size is a tooling change, not a new machine.
For Processors and Integrators
The line can be discussed as a standalone stage or integrated with feeding, washing, inspection and downstream packing or freezing equipment.
DOKTEK FoodTech reviews the product, target cut geometry and line layout before confirming a configuration — it does not publish a single generic capacity or blade-thickness figure that would apply to every product.
What Must Be Confirmed Before Quotation
As with DOKTEK's other lines, a serious quotation depends on real product samples and the target line, not a catalogue spec sheet.
- Target vegetable(s) and expected size range
- Required cut type — slices, dice, strips or a mix
- Target production rhythm and current method
- Available line space and downstream process
Downstream Packaging
Sliced and diced vegetables usually go straight on to weighing and packing. A multihead weigher can take cut product from the line and feed a vertical bagger or a tray line, configured for the cut size and how the product behaves.
- Cutting → quality inspection → weighing → packing

Frequently asked questions
Questions before a machine evaluation.
01Is this the same machine as DOKTEK's eggplant stem cutting machine?
No. It is a separate DOKTEK line built for slicing and dicing rather than stem removal. The base line is mechanical — a disc slicing head and a dicing grid on a conveyor; machine-vision inspection is an option on the line, not built into every unit.
02Which vegetables does it handle today?
Eggplant and cucumber are confirmed today. Other vegetables are evaluated from real samples rather than assumed to work.
03Can DOKTEK publish cut thickness or capacity numbers here?
No responsible manufacturer publishes a single number that applies to every product. Cut geometry and throughput are configuration-dependent and confirmed from samples.
04What is the best vegetable cutting machine for industrial use?
It depends on the cut and the line. Restaurant-type choppers cut batches by hand-feeding; an industrial line cuts continuously on a conveyor with a slicing disc and a dicing grid sized to the product, and hands the output to the next process. Compare machines on the cut geometry you need, the vegetables you run, the throughput and how the machine connects to washing, inspection and packing — not on a headline capacity.
05Is there a machine that dices vegetables continuously?
Yes — the dicing grid on this line produces dice continuously as product is fed on the conveyor; the dice size is set by the grid, which is exchanged for another size rather than adjusted. The footage on this page shows dicing output on real product.
