Description

Cutting FAM MANTIS.2 for vegetables, fruits, meat, fish

  • Cutting FAM MANTIS.2 is designed for precise cutting at medium to high capacities of elongated and oblong products. Has a strong reputation for its reliable and accurate operation.
  • The Transversal Cutting Principle allows precise high speed slicing while maintaining an excellent slicing quality resulting in a very long shelf-life for the fresh sliced products.
  • Due to the high speed of the knives, the Mantis.2 produces uniform slices with a smooth surface and a minimum of breakage and ragged ends.
  • Conveyor belts can be removed for inspection or cleaning purposes in less than 2 minutes.
  • The design of the conveyor belts, side covers, and open V-belt section results in high accessibilty and easy maintenance and improved hygiene.
  • Touch screen makes operation a dream. The electrical control cabinet is elevated above the machine to avoid negative influence of water.
  • Optional topbelt for perfect product guidance.
  • The spiral chute will reduce the speed of the product before it is discharged from the machine resulting in whole, unbroken slices. Even with fragile products and at high capacity.
  • Stainless safety switches prevent the machine from operating while one of its covers or doors is still open. There are only two safety switches.
  • Hinged main cover, discharge chute, side panels and rear bottom cover, facilitating easy access to the machine parts and fast effective cleaning.
  • Trapped key interlocking technology controls the access to the cutting wheel. The discharge chute safety key is trapped in the unit the cutting wheel is stopped.

Cutting FAM MANTIS.2 – Cutting Principle

The thin and tensioned knives of the cutting wheel act as spokes and support the rim. The thin knives are twisted in order to make a uniform pitch from the hub to the rim.
It is this pitch that maintains the continuous speed of the product while it is being sliced resulting in maximum slice thickness accuracy.
The conveyor belt speed is synchronized with the cutting wheel speed to ensure proper advance of the product per revolution of the cutting wheel.
As an alternative cutting principle on this machine, small 2D-knives, positioned transversely on the cutting wheel, cut your leafy vegetables in small squares.
