Most Jimmy John's locations use manual-feed slicers from Bizerba, like the Bizerba GSP H I 90-CGB Manual Meat and Cheese Slicer. These slicers are known for sharp blades, seamless aluminum bodies, and powerful, three-speed drive systems.

how Jimmy John's Slicers Work
Jimmy John's slicers are designed for speed, consistency, and operator safety. The GSP HD I 90 and GSP H I 150 models feature 1/2-horsepower motors and 13-inch blades that rotate at 255 RPM. Each unit is operated with front-facing controls, a gravity-fed slicing carriage, and a food fence that helps hold product in place while operators safely push towards the blade for repeated slicing.
The Benefits of Commercial Slicers
Bizerba slicers help high-volume operations slice large amounts of meat safely and efficiently.

- Cutting Assist: Uses a servo motor to reduce operating effort
- Adjustable Thickness: Slices product between 0 and 24 millimeters thick
- Simple Disassembly: Ensures safe, efficient cleaning
- Remote Blade Sharpener: Enables hands-free sharpening without collecting food debris
How Bizerba Slicers Can Improve Your Operation
Bizerba manufactures commercial slicers offering thin cutting, simple maintenance, and key safety features that can increase output and reduce training costs. Bizerba’s GSP H and HD illuminated safety slicers received a 2018 Kitchen Innovations Award. The illuminated safety system glows green when the unit isn't activated and can be unplugged or cleaned. It flashes red when the blade is exposed and ready to cut, and it glows red when the slicer blade is exposed and spinning.
Bizerba blades can be removed for cleaning with special tools that help prevent accidental injury by keeping operators from touching the blade. The chromium-plated blade has a hardened edge rated between 60 and 62 on the Rockwell scale, supporting thin, consistent cuts, while the included remote sharpener maintains the edge for a long service life.
