Here's how it works:
• The product is fed through the in-feed chute and enters into the cutting compartments of the rotating impeller (*). There, it is held against the inner surface of the cutting head assembly (*) by centrifugal force.
• The cutting head assembly (*) consists of 12 individual stationary cutting stations. Slices or shreds are produced as product passes each knife in a smooth and uninterrupted manner. Length is controlled by the input product size.
• The cut product is collected through the central discharge.
• The interchangeable cutting heads (*) offer flexibility in all cuts and shapes.

• The innovative and reduced diameter cutting head (*) has a pre-set cut size and will immediately position the product for optimal cutting,
• Inexpensive razor-sharp throw-away blades are used, produced by Stumabo,
• Improved consistency of slice thickness resulting in higher quality product, leading to more satisfied customers and increased sales,
• Interchangeability of cutting heads (and cut shapes) without efforts, allowing you to carry out many orders in a very short period of time.
