The Multicorer for the automated coring of large quantities of lettuce, cabbage and other products with a maximum diameter of 240 mm considerably reduces the personnel requirement in preparation.
• Automated coring and dividing enable large quantities to be processed
• Reduced personnel requirement in the preparation of products
• Possibility to divide products in preparation for further processing steps
• Simultaneous processing of different products possible
The Multicorer prepares products such as iceberg lettuce, frisée, endive, radicchio or red and white cabbage (generally round cabbage varieties), as well as peppers, for subsequent processing steps by coring and dividing them.
Operation of the machine during processing is very simple: the product is placed onto the product holders with the stalk facing downwards by one person. The diameter of the processed products may not exceed 240 mm. The plates with the product holders move in the direction of the cutting unit at the set speed – with up to 20 cycles per minute. There, the products are cored and divided into two or four segments. The pieces of the product are transported further and discharged onto an optional discharge conveyor located at the end.
All cutting cassettes can be changed quickly with no tools required.
The cutting machine is available in two versions: the standard model has four lanes, but it is also available with two lanes.
