Restaurants and butcher counters often buy a “meat cutter” by looks, then find it cannot do strips and dice—or they confuse it with a dedicated meat grinder. Size a commercial meat slicer / dual-purpose cutter by slice vs grind kg/h and the jobs you actually run (slice / strip / dice / mince).

1. Quick Answer: Which CHINENG Meat Slicer?

Direct answer: Match jobs (slice / strip / dice / mince) and published output kg/h.

• Slice + strip + mince, ~150 grind / 250 slice kg/h → CN-JQ70 or CN-JQ70Z (2.2 kW / 220V; Z adds transparent window + removable blade set)

• ~300 kg/h multi-job compact → CN-LJ200 (grind / veg / sauce / sausage / slice) or CN-WQ400 (slice / strip / dice / mince, 1.5 kW)

• ~200 kg/h lighter unit → CN-YF-TQ400 (0.85 kW / 220V)

• ~500 kg/h higher throughput → CN-130L (0.85 kW / 220V)

• Only need mince, not slicing → see the meat grinder buying guide instead

Catalog starting price for this product page is about $603 (machine only; excludes shipping, on-site service, and tax).

2. Who These Machines Are For

• Restaurants that need sliced meat, strips, and mince on one station

• Butcher shops and wet-market counters prep for hot pot, BBQ, or retail packs

• Central kitchens that want published kg/h without buying separate slicer + grinder first

If you mainly cut vegetables, use the vegetable cutter buying guide. If you only grind mince for dumplings, the dedicated meat grinder guide is usually the better path.

3. Slicer vs Grinder — Don’t Buy the Wrong One

Factory page title says “Mincing and Cutting Dual-Purpose Machine”—buyers still search commercial meat slicer. Use the function list and kg/h table below, not the factory nickname alone.

4. Size by kg/h and Function Set

1. List peak-hour jobs: slice / strip / dice / mince (and sausage/sauce if needed)

2. Estimate peak kg/h for the heaviest job

3. Add buffer for changeovers (+20–30%)

4. Match published output and power (all listed models are 220V / 50Hz)

Worked example: A hot-pot kitchen needs ~200 kg/h sliced meat at peak and also mince for sauces → buffer ≈ 250 kg/h slice → start with CN-JQ70 / CN-JQ70Z (slice rated 250 kg/h) or step to a 300 kg/h model if growth is expected.

All models on this page are listed at 220V / 50Hz. Specs may be upgraded—final quote sheet wins.

6. Decision Tree

Need slice + strip + mince around 150/250 kg/h → CN-JQ70; want window + removable blades → CN-JQ70Z.
Need ~300 kg/h and sausage/sauce jobs → CN-LJ200.
Need ~300 kg/h slice/strip/dice/mince → CN-WQ400.
Need ~200 kg/h lighter power → CN-YF-TQ400.
Need ~500 kg/h published output → CN-130L.
Mince-only high kg/h → meat grinder guide.
Vegetables only → vegetable cutter guide.

7. Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this the same as a meat grinder?
A: No. This line is built for cutting jobs (slice/strip/dice) plus mince on selected models. Dedicated grinders are covered in the meat grinder buying guide.

Q: CN-JQ70 vs CN-JQ70Z?
A: Same output class (150/250 kg/h). Z adds a transparent window and removable blade set for cleaner changeovers.

Q: Can one machine replace a veg cutter?
A: Only if your veg volume is light and the model lists vegetable/sauce jobs (e.g. CN-LJ200). Heavy veg prep still belongs on a vegetable cutter.

Q: Why is starting price around $603?
A: That is the catalog starting figure on the product page for the machine only—shipping, install, and tax are extra. Final price depends on model.
