OPERATING PRINCIPLE

Product is guided to the center of a high speed, rotating impeller.
Centrifugal force moves product outward to the impeller tips, which
carry the product past the cutting edges of the stationary microcut
head.

The microcut head is a ring of closely spaced blades. Product
strikes the exposed cutting edges of the blades with great velocity.
This action results in the removal of small particles until reduction is
completed. Particles are discharged through the spaces between the
blades. Because of high impeller speeds, product remains in the
microcut head only a fraction of a second. The product is reduced in
precise increments, emerging a uniform size.
