Abstract
A scoring machine () for scoring a surface of an item which is substantially plane in its main dimension and is curved transversely to its main dimension, the item being moved along a transport path () in a direction of movement (), such as a surface of an item being conveyed forwards by means of a number of conveyors (), the scoring machinecomprising a structure () with a curved path () of substantially the same curvature as the conveyed item transversely to its main dimension, and a number of scoring devices () being mounted on the structure () in such a manner that the scoring devices () are movable along the curved path () extending transversely to both the transport path () and the direction of movement () of the item moved, which makes it possible to score the surface of items in a uniform manner regardless of the point of time of the working day on surfaces of up to 700 items an hour and in a hygienic manner.
