- the food processing device is preferably located upstream of a sealing station in which a lidding film is sealed to the packaging tray.
- the distance between two packaging troughs is preferably brought to a desired level upstream of the slicing device.
- the packaging machine has means by which it can be determined where the respective packaging tray is located in the packaging machine, so that its transport can be controlled or regulated in such a way that it is in a desired position for loading relative to the tray with which Product to be filled is located.
- the packaging machine is preferably a horizontal tubular bag machine.
- trays for example, which are preferably shaped, troughed or flat, are transported in the direction of a film packaging.
- the film packaging forms a tube from a flat web that is sealed lengthwise.

- the load capacity of a tray is preferably at least 600 grams per tray. In the event that the sliced portion does not have this weight, preferably more than one portion is placed on a tray.
- the weight on the tray is preferably recorded continuously.
- the tray preferably serves to check the weight during the cutting of one or more portions.
- the signal of the measured weight of the portion on the tray can be used to control the slicer in order to obtain portions with the most accurate weight possible.
- the feed of the food block between two cuts is regulated with the signal from the trays.
- the weight signal of the tray can alternatively or additionally be used to control the path of the tray. If the portion on the tray is the wrong weight after it has been cut, the tray does not become the packaging machine, for example, but first becomes a packaging machine Went to the weight correction station and moved to the packaging machine after the weight correction.
- the removal of a tray from the discharge area of the knife is preferably carried out with the execution of so-called blank cuts, i.e. the knife rotates without slices being cut off.

- each portion has slices of food from different food products. This can be achieved, for example, by moving a tray while a portion is being cut open in such a way that the respective portion to be produced is arranged in changing trajectories of the food slices of the respective food.
- the food slice stacks or shingles are deposited from the tray directly into the package.
- the tablet can perform a quick retraction, lowering and/or tilting movement.
- the transport surface can preferably extend into the area of the packaging machine and thus place the trays over the respective packaging and then deposit the food products in the packaging.
- each tray preferably moves along a closed path, for example a circular path, an ellipse or a rectangle, this path not being represented by rails or the like, but being controlled in a freely programmable manner using magnetic fields.
- the path of a tray can preferably be changed at any time, for example to prevent a collision between two trays.
- Several trays can be grouped together and moved together. This group can, for example, be broken up for return transport and then reconfigured to load the trays.
- This portion is preferably configured directly on the respective tray.
- a cut slice and/or an end piece is caught with a tray and then transported away.
