OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Product delivered to an opening in the feed pan falls onto the outside
surface of a feed drum [ 1 ]. A feed roll [ 2 ], located over the feed
drum is adjustable to suit product thickness. This feed roll meshes with
the circular knives [ 3 ] to insure a positive transfer of product to the
knives. The product is held at between the drum and roll and forced
into the rotating circular knives which cut strips from it. The circular
knives engage slots in the surface of the large feed drum, creating clean
cutting and separation of strips. The strip cut product is removed from
the circular knives by a stripper plate which also acts as a shear edge for
the crosscut knives. Product then moves into the crosscut knives [ 4 ] for
the second, and nal cut. The crosscut action also discharges product.
TYPES OF CUTS
DICES
Circular Knife Cuts: 1/8 to 2" (3.2 to 50.8 mm)
Crosscut Knife Cuts: 1/8 to 3" (3.2 to 76.2 mm)
STRIP CUTS
Strip cuts can be made by removing the crosscut knives from the
machine.
