METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CONTINUOUS SLICING OF FOOD STICK FLOW

摘要

PURPOSE: To provide slicing method and device that can certainly cut butt ends. CONSTITUTION: A slicing blade 14 having a flat top surface 22 or top flat land width along its cutting edge provides generally longitudinal forces on the food products 11 being sliced, which forces are in a direction generally opposite to the direction through which the food products 11 are fed through a slicing apparatus. The slicing apparatus includes an orifice assembly 13 or other arrangement for imparting generally laterally directed forces on the food products 11 being sliced. The combination of these longitudinal forces and transverse forces ensures the slicing of the butt ends 29 of these products.
