Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for slicing a food bar in nominal food slices and / or for portioning of nominal food slices, according to the preamble of claim 1, such as from DE 10 2004 006 120 A1 known.
- the food latch is transported by means of a regulated drive through a stationary cutting plane in which the cut is made by a rapidly moving usually rotating cutting blade.
- the slice thickness of the nominal food slices results from the feed distance of the food bar between two cuts. Accordingly, at a constant cutting blade rotational speed, the regulation of the slice thickness takes place via the feed speed of the food bar, which is transported continuously in the direction of the cutting knife.
- the cut nominal food slices are generally combined and packaged with constant number of slices and / or weight-to-portion. Before separating the nominal food slices usually some trim food slices must be separated from the food bar, which are not suitable as Nennffenssscale and are disposed of accordingly or recycled for secondary use.
- trim food slices are usually not cut intermittently. This has the disadvantage that with a larger deviation of the trim food slice thickness to the nominal slice thickness, the first nominal slice becomes wedge-shaped. This comes from the different feed rates for trim or nominal wheel thickness.
- the trimming cut In the event that the trimming cut is to be cut as thick slices, the trimming cut must be done intermittently to reduce the load on the cutting system. When intermittently cut, the cutting speed usually has to be reduced. When switching from intermittent to constant feed rate, the first nominal disc becomes wedge-shaped.
- the object is achieved with a method for slicing a food bar in nominal food slices and / or portioning of nominal food slices, as defined in claim 1.

- the slice thickness of the nominal food slices results from the feed distance of the Food bar between two cuts. Accordingly, at a constant cutting blade rotational speed, the regulation of the slice thickness takes place via the feed speed of the food bar, which is transported continuously in the direction of the cutting knife.
- the nominal food slices so cut usually fall on a portioning device, in particular a storage table, with which they are combined into portions with a constant number of discs and / or weight-accurate portions and then removed and packaged.
- trim food slices Before separating the nominal food slices according to the invention at least one, preferably some trim food slices must be separated from the food bar, which are not suitable as a nominal food disc and disposed of accordingly or recycled secondary. These trim cuts preferably have a substantially greater thickness than the nominal food slice. Preferably, the thickness of the trim wheel is 5 - 30 mm.
- the food bar when separating at least the last trim food disc of each food bar, the food bar is at least temporarily transported at the nominal feed speed for the separation of nominal food discs in the direction of the cutting blade.
- the first nominal food disc has an at least substantially constant thickness.
- the rotational speed of the cutting blade can be the speed when cutting a nominal food slice or less.
- the cutting blade when cutting the trim food disc, rotates at a lower speed than when cutting nominal food discs, and the speed of the cutting blade is accelerated during the final trim cut / trim cuts and / or during the slicing of at least one portion of nominal food slices.

- the acceleration phase may be shorter, equal to, or longer than the duration of slicing a portion of nominal food slices.
- the acceleration takes place during the slicing of a slice or until the knife has again penetrated into the food bar for cutting the next slice.
- the performance of the slicer is increased because it is not waited until the cutting blade has the desired speed for the nominal operation before the first food slice a Nennportion is cut, but already cut during the acceleration phase portions of nominal food slices and exploitable Be configured portions and / or the acceleration occurs during the slicing of one or more trim discs.
- the drive of a gripper which is connected to the rear end of the food bar and / or the drive of a traction and / or support belt, which transports the food latch in the direction of the cutting blade and / or the drive of a storage table on which the nominal food to the discs Portions are configured and then removed and / or the drive of an interleaver system, the insectspapiere arranges between two food slices synchronized with the speed of the cutting blade.
- Yet another inventive or preferred subject matter of the present invention is a method of performing trimming cuts wherein the advancement of the food bar occurs during the slicing of a trim wheel at two different speeds.
- feed of the food bar occurs during separation of a trim disk at two different speeds.
- the food bar in particular during the Cutting knife is not engaged with it at a speed that is above the nominal feed rate when cutting nominal food slices, moved by a comparatively large distance, for example 2 - 34 mm, preferably 5 - 30 mm.

With the slicing of the nominal food slices in nominal operation can then be continued immediately, without the cutting blade has to be significantly accelerated.
- the trim food discs fall on the tray and are disposed of there.
- “Disposed” or “secondarily utilized” in the sense of the invention means that the trim food slices are not transported in the same direction as the portions of nominal food slices. With more than one Trimmlebensffenin per food bar these slices are preferably collected on the table and then transported together.
- the food bar is scanned prior to slicing and the number and / or thickness of the trim food slice (s) is predetermined. Only after this section of the food bar has been separated can the slicing of nominal food slices be started.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Aufschneiden eines Lebensmittelriegels in Nennlebensmittelscheiben und/oder zum Portionieren von Nennlebensmittelscheiben, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1, wie z.B. aus der
Das gattungsgemäße Verfahren ist von sogenannten Hochleistungsaufschneidevorrichtungen bekannt, wie sie beispielsweise in der
Für den Fall, dass der Trimmschnitt als dicke Scheiben geschnitten werden soll, dazu muss der Trimmschnitt intermittierend erfolgen, um die Belastung am Schneidesystem zu verringern. Wird intermittierend geschnitten, muss meist die Schnittgeschwindigkeit reduziert werden. Beim Umschalten von intermittierend auf konstante Vorschubgeschwindigkeit wird die erste Nennscheibe keilförmig.In the event that the trimming cut is to be cut as thick slices, the trimming cut must be done intermittently to reduce the load on the cutting system. When intermittently cut, the cutting speed usually has to be reduced. When switching from intermittent to constant feed rate, the first nominal disc becomes wedge-shaped.
Es war deshalb die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Verfahren zur Verfügung zu stellen, das die Nachteile des Standes der Technik nicht aufweist.It was therefore the object of the present invention to provide a method which does not have the disadvantages of the prior art.
Gelöst wird die Aufgabe mit einem Verfahren zum Aufschneiden eines Lebensmittelriegels in Nennlebensmittelscheiben und/oder zum Portionieren von Nennlebensmittelscheiben, wie im Anspruch 1 definiert.The object is achieved with a method for slicing a food bar in nominal food slices and / or portioning of nominal food slices, as defined in claim 1.
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Aufschneiden eines Lebensmittelriegels in Lebensmittelscheiben. Derartige Lebensmittelriegel, beispielsweise Wurst, Käse oder Schinken haben typischerweise eine Länge zwischen 300 und 3.500 Millimetern. Diese Lebensmittelriegel werden in die Aufschneidevorrichtung eingelegt und mittels eines Transportmittels in Richtung eines rotierenden Schneidmessers transportiert. Bei dem Schneidmesser kann es sich beispielsweise um ein Kreis- oder Sichelmesser handeln, das sich um eine Drehachse und/oder entlang einer Kreisbahn dreht. Dieses Schneidmesser trennt Nennlebensmittelscheiben von dem vorderen Ende des Lebensmittelriegels ab. Dabei wird der Lebensmittelriegel mittels eines geregelten Antriebs kontinuierlich, vorzugsweise mit einer konstanten Geschwindigkeit durch eine ortsfeste Schneidebene, in der der Schnitt durch das rotierende Schneidmesser erfolgt, transportiert. Auch während des Abtrennens einer Nennlebensmittelscheibe wird der Lebensmittelriegel weitertransportiert. Die Scheibenstärke der Nennlebensmittelscheiben ergibt sich aus der Vorschubstrecke des Lebensmittelriegels zwischen zwei Schnitten. Demnach erfolgt bei einer konstanten Schneidmesserdrehgeschwindigkeit die Regelung der Scheibenstärke über die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit des Lebensmittelriegels, der kontinuierlich in Richtung des Schneidmessers transportiert wird. Die so geschnittenen Nennlebensmittelscheiben fallen in der Regel auf eine Portioniervorrichtung, insbesondere ein Ablagetisch, mit der sie zu Portionen mit konstanter Scheibenzahl und/oder gewichtsgenauen Portionen zusammengefasst und sodann abtransportiert und verpackt werden.The present invention relates to a method for slicing a food bar into food slices. Such food bars, such as sausage, cheese or ham typically have a length between 300 and 3,500 millimeters. These food bars are inserted into the slicing device and transported by means of a transport in the direction of a rotating cutting blade. The cutting blade may be, for example, a circular or sickle blade, which rotates about a rotation axis and / or along a circular path. This cutting knife separates nominal food slices from the front end of the food rack. In this case, the food latch by means of a controlled drive continuously, preferably at a constant speed by a stationary cutting plane in which the cut is made by the rotating cutting blade transported. Also during the separation of a nominal food slice the food bar is transported further. The slice thickness of the nominal food slices results from the feed distance of the Food bar between two cuts. Accordingly, at a constant cutting blade rotational speed, the regulation of the slice thickness takes place via the feed speed of the food bar, which is transported continuously in the direction of the cutting knife. The nominal food slices so cut usually fall on a portioning device, in particular a storage table, with which they are combined into portions with a constant number of discs and / or weight-accurate portions and then removed and packaged.
Vor dem Abtrennen der Nennlebensmittelscheiben müssen erfindungsgemäß mindestens ein, vorzugsweise einige Trimmlebensmittelscheiben von dem Lebensmittelriegel abgetrennt werden, die als Nennlebensmittelscheibe nicht geeignet sind und dementsprechend entsorgt oder einer Sekundärverwertung zugeführt werden. Diese Trimmschnitte weisen vorzugsweise eine wesentlich größere Dicke als die Nennlebensmittelscheibe auf. Vorzugsweise beträgt die Dicke der Trimmscheibe 5 - 30 mm.Before separating the nominal food slices according to the invention at least one, preferably some trim food slices must be separated from the food bar, which are not suitable as a nominal food disc and disposed of accordingly or recycled secondary. These trim cuts preferably have a substantially greater thickness than the nominal food slice. Preferably, the thickness of the trim wheel is 5 - 30 mm.
Erfindungsgemäß wird der Lebensmittelriegel beim Abtrennen zumindest der letzten Trimmlebensmittelscheibe jedes Lebensmittelriegels zumindest zeitweise mit der Nennvorschubgeschwindigkeit für das Abtrennen von Nennlebensmittelscheiben in Richtung des Schneidmessers transportiert wird. Dadurch weist die erste Nennlebensmittelscheibe eine zumindest im Wesentlichen konstante Dicke auf.According to the invention, when separating at least the last trim food disc of each food bar, the food bar is at least temporarily transported at the nominal feed speed for the separation of nominal food discs in the direction of the cutting blade. As a result, the first nominal food disc has an at least substantially constant thickness.
Die Drehgeschwindigkeit des Schneidmessers kann dabei die Drehzahl beim Abschneiden einer Nennlebensmittelscheibe oder geringer sein.The rotational speed of the cutting blade can be the speed when cutting a nominal food slice or less.
Erfindungsgemäß dreht das Schneidmesser beim Abtrennen der Trimmlebensmittelscheibe mit einer geringeren Drehzahl als beim Abtrennen von Nennlebensmittelscheiben und die Drehzahl des Schneidmessers wird während des oder der letzten Trimmschnitts/Trimmschnitte und/oder während des Aufschneidens mindestens einer Portion aus Nennlebensmittelscheiben beschleunigt.According to the invention, when cutting the trim food disc, the cutting blade rotates at a lower speed than when cutting nominal food discs, and the speed of the cutting blade is accelerated during the final trim cut / trim cuts and / or during the slicing of at least one portion of nominal food slices.
Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung werden die Trimmschnitte mit einer geringeren Drehzahl durchgeführt als beim Abschneiden einer Nennlebensmittelscheibe im kontinuierlichen Betrieb. Erfindungsgemäß wird die Drehzahl dann während des Aufschnitts der/den letzten Trimmschnittscheibe(n) und/oder während des Aufschneidens mindestens einer Portion, vorzugsweise der ersten Portion aus Nennlebensmittelscheiben, besondere bevorzugt der/den ersten Nennlebensmittelscheibe(n) einer Portion, dann erhöht, bis die Drehzahl (Nenndrehzahl) erreicht ist, bei der die restlichen Portionen aus Nennlebensmittelscheiben aufgeschnitten werden sollen. Die Beschleunigungsphase kann kürzer, gleich oder länger als die Dauer des Aufschnitts einer Portion aus Nennlebensmittelscheiben sein. Vorzugsweise erfolgt die Beschleunigung während des Aufschneidens einer Scheibe bzw. bis das Messer wieder in den Lebensmittelriegel zum Abschneiden der nächsten Scheibe eingedrungen ist.In the present invention, the trim cuts are made at a slower speed than when cutting a nominal food slice in continuous operation. According to the invention, the speed is then during the slicing the last trimming slice (s) and / or during the slicing of at least one portion, preferably the first portion of nominal food slices, more preferably the first nominal food slice (s) of a serving, then increasing until the speed (rated speed) is reached, in which the remaining portions of nominal food slices to be cut. The acceleration phase may be shorter, equal to, or longer than the duration of slicing a portion of nominal food slices. Preferably, the acceleration takes place during the slicing of a slice or until the knife has again penetrated into the food bar for cutting the next slice.
Durch diese Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird die Leistung der Aufschneidevorrichtung erhöht, weil nicht gewartet wird, bis das Schneidmesser die für den Nennbetrieb gewünschte Drehzahl aufweist, bevor die erste Lebensmittelscheibe einer Nennportion abgeschnitten wird, sondern bereits während der Beschleunigungsphase Portionen aus Nennlebensmittelscheiben aufgeschnitten und zu verwertbaren Portionen konfiguriert werden und/oder die Beschleunigung während des Aufschneidens einer oder mehrerer Trimmscheiben erfolgt.By this embodiment of the method according to the invention, the performance of the slicer is increased because it is not waited until the cutting blade has the desired speed for the nominal operation before the first food slice a Nennportion is cut, but already cut during the acceleration phase portions of nominal food slices and exploitable Be configured portions and / or the acceleration occurs during the slicing of one or more trim discs.
Vorzugsweise wird der Antrieb eines Greifers, der mit dem hinteren Ende des Lebensmittelriegels verbunden ist und/oder der Antrieb eines Traktions- und/oder Auflagebandes, das den Lebensmittelriegel in Richtung des Schneidmessers transportiert und/oder der Antrieb eines Ablagetischs, auf dem die Nennlebensmittelscheiben zu Portionen konfiguriert und dann abtransportiert werden und/oder der Antrieb eines Interleaversystems, das Zwischenlegepapiere zwischen zwei Lebensmittelscheiben anordnet, mit der Drehzahl des Schneidmessers synchronisiert.Preferably, the drive of a gripper, which is connected to the rear end of the food bar and / or the drive of a traction and / or support belt, which transports the food latch in the direction of the cutting blade and / or the drive of a storage table on which the nominal food to the discs Portions are configured and then removed and / or the drive of an interleaver system, the Zwischenlegepapiere arranges between two food slices synchronized with the speed of the cutting blade.
Noch ein weiterer erfindungsgemäßer oder bevorzugter Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zur Durchführung der Trimmschnitte, bei dem der Vorschub des Lebensmittelriegels während des Aufschnitts einer Trimmscheibe mit zwei unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten erfolgt.Yet another inventive or preferred subject matter of the present invention is a method of performing trimming cuts wherein the advancement of the food bar occurs during the slicing of a trim wheel at two different speeds.
Bei diesem Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung erfolgt Vorschub des Lebensmittelriegels während des Abtrennens einer Trimmscheibe mit zwei unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten. Vorzugsweise wird der Lebensmittelriegel, insbesondere während das Schneidmesser nicht mit ihm in Eingriff ist mit einer Geschwindigkeit, die über der Nennvorschubgeschwindigkeit beim Abschneiden von Nennlebensmittelscheiben liegt, um einen vergleichsweise großen Weg, beispielsweise 2 - 34 mm, vorzugsweise 5 - 30 mm bewegt. Danach, insbesondere wenn das Schneidmesser im Kontakt mit dem Lebensmittelriegel ist, wird eine andere, insbesondere reduzierte Geschwindigkeit, insbesondere auf die Nennvorschubgeschwindigkeit reduzierte Vorschubgeschwindigkeit gewählt.In this subject of the present invention, feed of the food bar occurs during separation of a trim disk at two different speeds. Preferably, the food bar, in particular during the Cutting knife is not engaged with it at a speed that is above the nominal feed rate when cutting nominal food slices, moved by a comparatively large distance, for example 2 - 34 mm, preferably 5 - 30 mm. Thereafter, especially when the cutting blade is in contact with the food bar, another, in particular reduced, speed, in particular the feed speed reduced to the nominal feed speed, is selected.
Zwischen den beiden oben erwähnten Geschwindigkeiten kann die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit kurzzeitig auf null oder nahe null m/s reduziert werden.Between the two speeds mentioned above, the feed rate can be briefly reduced to zero or near zero m / s.
Diese Verfahrensweise kann zum Abschneiden eines oder mehrerer Trimmschnitte eingesetzt werden. Insbesondere kann der letzte Trimmschnitt gemäß diesem Verfahren abgeschnitten werden. Der/die Trimmschnittscheiben sind dann jeweils leicht keilförmig.This procedure can be used to cut off one or more trimming cuts. In particular, the last trimming cut can be cut off according to this method. The Trimmschnittscheiben are then each slightly wedge-shaped.
Bei diesem erfindungsgemäßen oder bevorzugten Verfahren kann sich das Schneidmesset mit der Nenndrehzahl und/oder einer verminderten Drehzahl drehen.In this inventive or preferred method, the Schneidmesset can rotate at the rated speed and / or a reduced speed.
Noch ein weiterer erfindungsgemäßer oder bevorzugter Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Verfahren, bei dem das Schneidmesser beim Abtrennen der letzten Trimmlebensmittelscheibe zumindest im Wesentlichen dieselbe Drehzahl hat wie während des Aufschneidens mindestens einer Portion aus Nennlebensmittelscheiben.Yet another inventive or preferred subject matter of the present invention is a method wherein the cutting knife has at least substantially the same speed during separation of the last trim food slice as during cutting of at least one portion of nominal food slices.
Bei diesem Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung dreht sich das Schneidmesser zumindest beim Abtrennen der letzten Trimmlebensmittelscheibe zumindest im Wesentlichen mit der im Nennbetrieb gewünschte Drehzahl. Mit dem Aufschnitt der Nennlebensmittelscheiben im Nennbetrieb kann dann unmittelbar weitergemacht werden, ohne dass das Schneidmesser nennenswert beschleunigt werden muss.In this object of the present invention, the cutting blade rotates, at least when separating the last trim food disc at least substantially with the desired speed at rated operation. With the slicing of the nominal food slices in nominal operation can then be continued immediately, without the cutting blade has to be significantly accelerated.
Vorzugsweise fallen die Trimmlebensmittelscheiben auf den Ablagetisch und werden von dort entsorgt. "Entsorgt" bzw. "sekundär verwertet" im Sinne der Erfindung bedeutet, dass die Trimmlebensmittelscheiben nicht in dieselbe Richtung wir die Portionen aus Nennlebensmittelscheiben transportiert werden. Bei mehr als einer Trimmlebensmittelscheibe pro Lebensmittelriegel werden diese Scheiben vorzugsweise auf dem Ablagetisch gesammelt und dann gemeinsam abtransportiert.Preferably, the trim food discs fall on the tray and are disposed of there. "Disposed" or "secondarily utilized" in the sense of the invention means that the trim food slices are not transported in the same direction as the portions of nominal food slices. With more than one Trimmlebensmittelscheibe per food bar these slices are preferably collected on the table and then transported together.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform wird der Lebensmittelriegel vor dem Aufschneiden gescannt und die Anzahl und/oder die Dicke der Trimmlebensmittelscheibe(n) vorab festgelegt. Erst nachdem dieser Abschnitt des Lebensmittelriegels abgetrennt worden ist, kann mit dem Aufschneiden von Nennlebensmittelscheiben begonnen werden.According to a preferred embodiment, the food bar is scanned prior to slicing and the number and / or thickness of the trim food slice (s) is predetermined. Only after this section of the food bar has been separated can the slicing of nominal food slices be started.
Vorzugsweise wird, insbesondere beim Scannen, beispielsweise beim Röntgenscannen, die lokale Dichte des Lebensmittelriegels ermittelt wird und anhand der Dichte die Einteilung in Trimm- oder Nennscheibe erfolgt. Dazu wird besonders bevorzugt ein Referenzwert festgelegt, anhand dessen entschieden wird, in welche der beiden Klassen eine Scheibe fällt. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann zum Klassieren auch mindestens eine geometrische Abmessung herangezogen werden, die die Grenz darstellt, ab derer eine Scheibe eine Trimm- oder eine Nennscheibe ist.Preferably, in particular during scanning, for example in the case of X-ray scanning, the local density of the food bar is determined and the division into trim or nominal disk takes place on the basis of the density. For this purpose, a reference value is particularly preferably determined, by means of which it is decided in which of the two classes a disc falls. Alternatively or additionally, at least one geometric dimension can be used for classifying, which represents the limit beyond which a disc is a trim or a nominal disc.
Vorzugsweise wird das Schneidmesser vorm und/oder beim Wiederbeladen abgebremst. Mit dieser abgebremsten Drehzahl können die Trimmlebensmittelscheiben von dem Lebensmittelriegel abgetrennt werden. Dabei oder danach wird das Schneidmesser dann wieder beschleunigt.Preferably, the cutting blade is braked before and / or during reloading. With this braked speed, the trim food slices can be separated from the food bar. During or after the cutting blade is then accelerated again.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung werden mehrere Lebensmittelriegel gleichzeitig aufgeschnitten. Dabei kann jeder Lebensmittelriegel eine eigene Spur haben. Die Lebensmittelriegel können gemeinsam oder individuell angetrieben werden.According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, several food bars are cut simultaneously. Each food bar can have its own track. The food bars can be driven together or individually.

Vorzugsweise ist die Aufschneidevorrichtung mehrspurig vorgesehen, d.h. dass mehrere Lebensmittelprodukte 2 von einem Messer, insbesondere zumindest zeitweise gleichzeitig oder zumindest zeitweise sequentiell, aufgeschnitten werden. Dafür weist die Vorrichtung für jedes Lebensmittelprodukt eine eigene Spur 8 auf, entlang derer es in Richtung des Messers 11 transportiert wird. Die abgeschnittenen Lebensmittelscheiben werden jeweils zu Portionen konfiguriert.Preferably, the slicing device is provided in multiple tracks, ie that
Stromabwärts von dem Ablagetisch 1 ist in der Regel ein Verteiler vorgesehen, der die Portion(en) von dem Ablagetisch übernimmt und beispielsweise an einen zweiten Verteiler oder einen Einleger übergibt, der die Portionen in Verpackungsmulden einlegt.Downstream of the delivery table 1, a distributor is generally provided, which takes over the portion (s) from the delivery table and, for example, transfers them to a second distributor or a depositor who inserts the portions in packaging troughs.
Sobald die gewünschte Größe des Trimmschnitts 2' abgetrennt worden ist, erfolgt das Aufschneiden der ersten Portion von Lebensmittelscheiben, die sodann portioniert und verpackt werden sollen. Dafür wird der Lebensmittelriegel auf die gewünschte Vorschubgeschwindigkeit beschleunigt, die auch während des Schnittes beibehalten wird. Dadurch ist die erste Lebensmittelscheibe, wie in
Um dies zu vermeiden, wird, erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass der Lebensmittelriegel auch beim Abtrennen der Trimmlebensmittelscheiben 9 mit der Nennvorschubgeschwindigkeit für das Abtrennen von Nennlebensmittelscheiben 12 in Richtung des Schneidmessers transportiert wird. Dadurch ist die erste verwertbare Nennlebensmittelscheibe 12 nicht mehr keilförmig, sondern weist eine in wesentlichen konstante Dicke auf.To avoid this, according to the invention, it is provided that the food bar is also transported during the separation of the
Gemäß dem Stand der Technik wurde nach dem Abtrennen der letzten Trimmlebensmittelscheibe der Vorschub des Lebensmittelriegels unterbrochen und Dieser ausgesetzt, bis das Messer auf seine Nenndrehzahl beschleunigt worden war. Erst dann wurde der Vorschub des Lebensmittelriegels wieder in Gang gesetzt.According to the prior art, after the cutting off of the last trim food disc, the feed of the food bar was interrupted and suspended until the blade had been accelerated to its rated speed. Only then was the feed of the food bar started again.
Um diesen Zeitverlust zu vermeiden, wird, gemäß einer Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung, die Drehzahl des Schneidmessers während des Aufschneidens einer oder mehrerer Nennlebensmittelscheiben oder mindestens einer Portion bestehend aus Nennlebensmittelscheiben beschleunigt, bis die gewünschte Nenndrehzahl erreicht ist.To avoid this loss of time, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the speed of the cutting blade is accelerated during the slicing of one or more nominal food slices or at least one serving of nominal food slices until the desired rated speed is reached.
Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann diese Beschleunigung auch während des Abtrennens von Trimmlebensmittelscheiben erfolgen, so dass das Schneidmesser die gewünschte Nenndrehzahl aufweist, sobald die erste Nennlebensmittelscheibe abgeschnitten werden soll.Alternatively or additionally, this acceleration can also take place during the separation of trim food slices, so that the cutting knife has the desired rated speed as soon as the first nominal food slice is to be cut off.
Gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel erfolgt der Trimmschnitt, insbesondere mit einer Scheibendicke >5mm, mit einer vergleichsweise niedrigeren Schnittgeschwindigkeit, beispielsweise 50-300UPM. Bei dieser Ausführungsform kann der Vorschub des Lebensmittelriegels zwischen zwei Schnitten intermittierend ausgeführt werden, d.h. beim eigentlichen Schnitt wird der Lebensmittelriegel nicht vorgeschoben. Die letzte Trimmschnittscheibe kann erst intermittierend zur Schneidkante bewegt werden. Wenn das Messer in das Produkt eintritt, wird auf die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit der Nennscheibendicke umgeschaltet. Ab diesem Zeitpunkt beschleunigt das Messer während dem Schneiden auf die Nennschnittzahl, zum Beispiel 600- 1500UPM. Alle relevanten Antriebe (Vorschub, Traktionssysteme, Portionier Bänder, ...) können, vorzugsweise synchron, mit der Messerdrehzahl mitbeschleunigt werden.According to one embodiment, the trimming cut, in particular with a slice thickness> 5 mm, takes place with a comparatively lower cutting speed, for example 50-300 rpm. In this embodiment, the feeding of the food bar between two cuts can be performed intermittently, i. during the actual cut, the food bar is not advanced. The last trimming disc can only be moved intermittently to the cutting edge. When the knife enters the product, it switches to the feed speed of the nominal wheel thickness. From this point on, the knife accelerates to the nominal cutting number during cutting, for example 600-1500UPM. All relevant drives (feed, traction systems, portioning belts, ...) can be accelerated, preferably synchronously, with the blade speed.
Es ist aber auch möglich, dass die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit für die Nennscheibendicke bei allen Trimmschnitten ansteht und der intermittierende Vorschub dazu geschaltet wird. Dadurch sind alle Trimmscheiben leicht keilförmig.But it is also possible that the feed rate for the nominal wheel thickness is present at all trim cuts and the intermittent feed is switched to it. As a result, all trims are slightly wedge-shaped.
