IMC PC2 Potato Chipper | Commercial Chip Cutter

The IMC PC2 is a dedicated commercial potato chipper designed for kitchens where chips form a significant part of the menu. It operates as a standalone prep machine, taking whole potatoes through a large-capacity hopper and cutting them to a consistent size in a single pass. The one-piece knife block design keeps the cutting action clean and controlled, which also helps minimise wastage — a practical concern when peeled potato is your raw material.

In a busy service environment, prep speed directly affects labour cost and workflow efficiency. The PC2 is built to handle volume continuously without slowing down, making it practical for high-demand periods when prep staff are working against the clock. The interchangeable knife and scallop blocks allow kitchens to produce different chip profiles from the same machine, which matters for operations running varied menu formats or catering for different service occasions from a single prep area.

From an operational standpoint, the PC2 offers several day-to-day advantages:

• Interchangeable knife blocks allow multiple chip sizes from a single machine
• Large hopper capacity supports fast, continuous loading during busy prep
• One-piece knife block design reduces waste and speeds up changeover
• Heavy gauge stainless steel construction supports regular cleaning and long service life
• Operator interlocks fitted as standard to meet kitchen safety requirements

The machine is suited to single-phase power supply, which makes it straightforward to position in most commercial kitchens without specialist electrical provision. Flexible mounting options mean it can be bench-mounted or floor-standing depending on your available workspace. It is worth considering the flow of your prep area — the hopper loading height and discharge position should align sensibly with your peeling and washing stages to avoid unnecessary handling.

The PC2 is well suited to pubs, fish and chip operations, contract caterers, and any kitchen producing chips at volume on a daily basis. It is most appropriate for medium-scale operations; kitchens with exceptionally high throughput demands may find a heavier-duty model better matched to their output requirements. Equally, very low-volume operations may find a simpler manual chipper sufficient.
