Abstract
Divider blades (44) are mounted to rotary support plate (22), and the rotary support plate is moved in a circular path so as to cause the divider blades to move across the dough outlet openings (23), thereby severing the dough protruding from the outlet openings and forming dough balls (60). The divider blades are maintained in continuous contact with the face (18) of the dough delivery block (14), and the lower slicing edges (50) of each divider blade moves down to the lower horizontal edge (20) of the dough delivery block so as to make sure that the dough is not allowed to cling to the dough delivery block.
