Ultrasonic food cutting is a groundbreaking technology aimed at solving the drawbacks and challenges encountered in conventional mechanical food cutting, i.e. smearing of the food product/cutting tool, sticking of softer products to the cutting tool, shattering, dragging and/or deformation of the products, displacement of the fillings, inconsistent cuts and longer cutting times, as well as down time for cleaning of the cutting tool.

By means of one or multiple blades vibrating at a given frequency, food products can be cut in up to extremely thin slices at a very high speed, resulting in extremely precise, clean, flat, and consistent cuts.

Suitable products pertain to the following types:

  • Confectionery: cakes, cheesecakes, pies, Swiss rolls, pastries, cookies, brownies, candy bars, soft candies, candied fruits, etc.
  • Bakery: breads, sandwiches, wraps, tortillas, pizzas, focaccias, etc.
  • Nougat and nougat products
  • Snack bars, healthy bars, granola bars, cereal bars etc.
  • Pastas, lasagna sheets and pasta products
  • Frozen products: frozen cakes and confectionery and bakery items
  • Cheeses, especially soft and semi-hard
  • Sushi

Some of these food items may also contain fillings, such as jams/creams/nuts/chocolate chips/dried fruits etc., which can be conveniently cut without their displacement nor squeezing of the external dough.
