Up for sale is a heavy-duty Hobart Model 1612E commercial gravity-feed meat and deli slicer. Built in Troy, Ohio, this machine represents the final and most refined production iteration (ML 104546) of Hobart's legendary 1612 platform. Constructed with a rugged cast-aluminum body, gear-driven transmission, and commercial continuous-duty motor, this slicer is engineered for butcher shops, delis, restaurants, food trucks, hunters processing game, and home charcuterie makers.
Manufactured circa 1984–1985, the 1612E incorporates updated modular electrical controls and enhanced safety interlocks over the earlier base 1612 line. This specific machine includes commercial kitchen maintenance tracking from EMR (Electric Motor Repair / Commercial Kitchen Services) out of Rosedale, MD. Unlike consumer-grade light-duty slicers, the commercial Hobart gear-driven mechanism maintains consistent blade speed without slipping or bogging down on dense cheeses and cured meats.
