OPERATING PRINCIPLE

Product is delivered to a high speed conveyor belt [ 1 ] which carries
the product to the dicing unit. The feed roll [ 2 ], mounted directly over
the end of the feed belt, serves to compress some types of products
and assists in feeding these products into the knives. The product is
cut into strips by circular knives [ 3 ] that run in narrow slots in the
stationary feed plate [ 4 ]. The strips of product move directly into the
rotating crosscut knives [ 5 ] where the product discharges as cubes or
rectangular pieces.

TYPES OF CUTS

Circular Knife Cuts: 3/16 to 3" (4.8 to 76.2 mm)
Crosscut Knife Cuts: 3/16 to 3" (4.8 to 76.2 mm)
