摘要

The machine to divide dough into portions has a vertical shaft for the dough feed, with a rectangular cross section, with fixed long side walls and narrow side walls (22,22') between them on swing axes (221,221') at the outlet end to give a funnel passage to the lower capstan rollers (23,23') which take portions of dough from the shaft. The position of the side walls is adjusted by a setting unit (31) with a synchronized movement (A,A') into the vertical.
