Thielemann BBS2 Chicken Slicer (Butterfly Breast Slicer)

Thielemann BBS Butterflie Breast Slicer

Leading Slicing Technology for Chicken Breast Fillets

The Thielemann BBS Butterflies Breast Slicer is designed for the high-speed horizontal slicing of chicken breast butterflies or single fillets.

The machine slices the product to produce one portion of equal, consistent thickness, while the remaining slice is automatically separated and removed for alternative use or further processing.

With two independent slicing tracks, individual slice-thickness adjustment and a high production capacity, the BBS is ideally suited to industrial poultry processors looking for consistent portioning, high throughput and reliable product presentation.

High-Speed Chicken Breast Portioning

With two independent production lanes, the BBS can process approximately 60–70 butterflies per minute on each track, making it suitable for demanding poultry production environments where throughput and consistency are essential.

The individual servo-controlled height adjustment allows each slicing track to be configured independently, providing greater control over final slice thickness.

Hygienic & Easy to Operate

The BBS has been designed around modern food-production hygiene requirements. Its open-frame construction avoids closed tubes and profiles, while the quick-release conveyor system helps simplify access and cleaning.

The integrated HMI touchscreen provides operators with straightforward control and quick machine adjustments, while Ethernet connectivity allows for remote monitoring and fault diagnosis.
