Abstract
A process and system for cutting of slabs of a target food product. The slabs produced by this cutting step are within a predetermined size range, i.e., predetermined range as to height, length, and width. After a slab of target food product is cut so that it is of a size that is within the predetermined boundary of the predetermined size range it is introduced to a cutting tool at a predetermined time and at a predetermined speed. The cutting tool is of a predetermined size and includes at least one cutting area that is at least sufficient to cut a predetermined pattern of tessellated.or nested figures out of the slab of food product.
Claims (20)
1. An apparatus for cutting a slab of food product into a predetermined shape, said apparatus comprising:
a cutting die having a plurality of laterally extending knife blades, said knife blades each having a predetermined perimeter;
a first drive device arranged to move the cutting die to a cutting position;
a feed device arranged to feed a slab of food product to a cutting area in a feeding direction extending generally perpendicular to the laterally extending knife blades.
a cutting die having a plurality of laterally extending knife blades, said knife blades each having a predetermined perimeter;
a first drive device arranged to move the cutting die to a cutting position;
a feed device arranged to feed a slab of food product to a cutting area in a feeding direction extending generally perpendicular to the laterally extending knife blades.
2. The apparatus cf claim 1 further including a knockout block, said knockout block including a plurality of knockout shapes arranged to be received by the predetermined perimeter of said knife blades.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said knockout block further includes at least one countersunk channel, said countersunk channel arranged to slidably receive at least one of said plurality of knife blades.
4. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said knockout shapes have a predetermined height and wherein said plurality of laterally extending knife blades have a predetermined height.
5. The apparatus of claim 4 wherein said predetermined height of said knockout shapes is randomly selected relative to the predetermined height of said plurality of said knife blades.
6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said predetermined perimeter of said knife blades defines a latticed, nested pattern.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said cutting die is a cutting wheel.
8. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said plurality of knockout shapes each include a knockout surface, at least one knockout surface including at least one raised area.
9. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said plurality of knockout shapes each include a knockout surface, at least one knockout surface including at least one countersunk area.
10. An apparatus for cutting a slab of food product into a predetermined shape, said apparatus comprising:
a cutting die having a plurality of laterally extending knife blades, said knife blades each having a predetermined perimeter;
a first drive device arranged to move the cutting die from a first, raised, position to a second, cutting, position;
a feed device arranged to feed a slab of food product to a cutting area in a feeding direction extending generally perpendicular to the laterally extending knife blades.
a cutting die having a plurality of laterally extending knife blades, said knife blades each having a predetermined perimeter;
a first drive device arranged to move the cutting die from a first, raised, position to a second, cutting, position;
a feed device arranged to feed a slab of food product to a cutting area in a feeding direction extending generally perpendicular to the laterally extending knife blades.
11. The apparatus of claim 10 further including a knockout block, said knockout block including a plurality of knockout shapes arranged to be received by the predetermined perimeter of said knife blades.
12. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein said knockout block further includes at least one countersunk channel, said countersunk channel arranged to slidably receive at least one of.said plurality of knife blades.
13. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein said knockout shapes have a predetermined height and wherein said plurality of laterally extending knife blades have a predetermined height.
14. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein said predetermined height of said knockout shapes is randomly selected relative to the predetermined height of said plurality of said knife blades.
15. The apparatus of claim 10 wherein said predetermined perimeter of said knife blades defines a latticed, nested pattern.
16. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein said plurality of knockout shapes each include a knockout surface, at least one knockout surface including at least one raised area.
17. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein said plurality of knockout shapes each include a knockout surface, at least one knockout surface including at least one countersunk area.
18. A method for cutting a slab of food product into a predetermined shape, said slab being within a predetermined size range, said method comprising:
moving the slab of food product on a conveyor from an infeed end to an outfeed end;
providing at least one cutting die having plurality of laterally extending knife blades, each knife blade having a predetermined perimeter, the perimeter defining a predetermined cutting pattern, said predetermined cutting pattern having a latticed, nested configuration;
subjecting the slab of food product to the cutting action of said at least one cutting die to cut the slab of food product.
moving the slab of food product on a conveyor from an infeed end to an outfeed end;
providing at least one cutting die having plurality of laterally extending knife blades, each knife blade having a predetermined perimeter, the perimeter defining a predetermined cutting pattern, said predetermined cutting pattern having a latticed, nested configuration;
subjecting the slab of food product to the cutting action of said at least one cutting die to cut the slab of food product.
19. The method of claim 18 further including the steps of:
providing a knockout block, said knockout block including at least one countersunk channel arranged to slidably receive at least one of said plurality of knife blades;
moving said at least one cutting die to a position wherein at least one of said plurality of knife blades is received in said countersunk channel, thereby urging said food product of predetermined shape from said cutting die.
providing a knockout block, said knockout block including at least one countersunk channel arranged to slidably receive at least one of said plurality of knife blades;
moving said at least one cutting die to a position wherein at least one of said plurality of knife blades is received in said countersunk channel, thereby urging said food product of predetermined shape from said cutting die.
20. A food product formed by a cutting die, said cutting die having a latticed, nested cutting configuration; wherein said cutting die is reciprocally movable from a first, normal position to a second, cutting position; and wherein said cutting die is received by a stationary knockout block when in said normal position.
