The invention relates to a slicing apparatus for slicing food products, in particular to a high-performance slicer, comprising a product feed that feeds products to be sliced on one or more tracks in a feed direction to a cutting region in which the products are cut into slices during a cutting operation of the slicing apparatus by means of a cutting blade, in particular a revolving and/or rotating cutting blade, that performs cutting movements; a portioning region in which portions are formed from the slices and each comprise one slice or a plurality of slices disposed at least partly above one another; and a control device that controls the cutting operation and that has operating information that relates to the cutting operation, wherein a treatment agent device for providing a liquid treatment agent is integrated into the slicing apparatus and is configured to provide the treatment agent during the cutting operation such that the treatment agent is applied to a respective cut surface of a product and/or to at least one respective flat side of at least one slice, and wherein a control unit is provided for the treatment agent device and is configured to control the operation of the treatment agent device in dependence on the cutting operation on the basis of at least a portion of the operating information of the control device.

Slicing device

The present invention relates to a gripper for gripping a product, in particular a food product, having a suction device which has a contact surface which can be brought into contact with a section, in particular with an end section, of the product, wherein the suction device comprises at least one first suction section which is bounded in the radial direction by a sealing device and which is in communication with a pumping device generating a vacuum; and at least one sealing section which is arranged outside the first suction section viewed in the radial direction of the contact region and at least sectionally, in particular completely, surrounds it in the radial direction. The present invention relates to a cutting apparatus having a corresponding gripper and to a method for cutting a product.

Gripper, cutting apparatus and method for cutting a product

An apparatus for delivering product carriers, in particular L boards, to a conveying line for food products comprises a store for the product carriers and a conveying device for conveying the product carriers, in particular isolated product carriers, along a conveying direction to the conveying line, wherein each product carrier has at least one base section and at least one cover section connected to the base section; and wherein the apparatus comprises a pre-treatment device for the product carriers that is configured to pre-treat the cover section of a product carrier with respect to its base section.

Apparatus for delivering product carriers and apparatus for pivoting a cover section of a product carrier

There is disclosed a food slicing device for slicing food products which has a pre-cooling device for cooling the food product before the slicing and a cutting device with a cutting blade. A temperature registration device for measuring the temperature of the food product and a control unit are provided, wherein the control unit is designed to calculate, based on the temperature measured by the temperature registration device, an instruction for the operation of the pre-cooling device, wherein the pre-cooling device is controllable depending on this instruction. The disclosure furthermore relates to a method for slicing a food product in which the food product is pre-cooled in a pre-cooling device, the temperature of the food product is measured after the pre-cooling and before or after the slicing of the food product, and the operation of the pre-cooling device is adjusted depending on the measured temperature level of the food product.

Food slicing device with pre-cooling device

A transfer device, in particular as a robot gripper, for picking up at least one product disposed on a base section of a product carrier and the product carrier from a conveying and/or processing device for the product and/or for the product carrier and for delivering the product together with the product carrier to a device, in particular a packaging machine, arranged downstream, is characterized in that the transfer device has a pivoting device for pivoting a cover section connected to the base section about a kink line extending between the cover section and the base section.
