A separating machine separates a food source material into first and second food portions. A separating arrangement includes a roller assembly and a belt assembly including a belt to be driven by the roller assembly. The separating arrangement includes a drum assembly arranged proximate to the belt assembly to define a separation area. The separating arrangement includes an inlet assembly configured to receive the food source material and a feeding wheel assembly positioned proximate to or within the inlet assembly and configured to direct the food source material into the separation area. The belt assembly is arranged relative to the belt assembly such that the food source material is pressed by the belt against the outer surface of the drum and the first food portion is pressed through the holes while the second food portion remains outside of the drum interior, thereby separating the first and second food portions.

Separating machine with feeding wheel

A separating machine separates a food source material into first and second food portions. The separating machine a separating arrangement with a roller assembly; a belt assembly including a belt; a drum assembly including a drum, and holes extending between the surfaces of the drum. The drum assembly is arranged proximate to the belt assembly to define a separation area. The belt assembly is arranged relative to the belt assembly such that the food source material delivered by the inlet assembly into the separation area is pressed by the belt against the outer surface of the drum and the first food portion is pressed through the holes into the drum interior, thereby separating the first and second food portions. The separating machine further includes a belt tensioning device configured to reposition at least a portion of the roller assembly to adjust a tension of the belt.
