  • COLD CUTS CUTTING MACHINE
    Publication number: 20160144527
    Abstract: A cold cuts cutting machine for cutting food, such as sausage, cheese or meat, for example, into slices, in particular for simultaneously slicing at least two pieces of stick-shaped food by means of a cutting blade. A minimization or a cancellation, respectively, of adhesive and frictional forces or the production of a noncutting pass, respectively, is to be make possible thereby and the supply of the food, which is to be sliced, is to be improved further. The cold cuts cutting machine includes a lower and an upper traction belt, between which the product bar can be guided such that the lower traction belt can carry out a relative movement, which is substantially vertical to the conveying direction of the product bar, with respect to a cutting latch.
