Shell Cutting System
A mechanical unit used in food industry production lines for cutting separating and reducing dough waste Commonly used in chocolate confectionery toffee cocoa and products with defined outer layers
Purpose of the Shell Cutting System
Precise dough cutting and guiding material into molds Increased production speed and accuracy compared to standard nozzles Accurate cutting of
the product’s outer coating without damaging the filling Standardized and uniform shaping for improved packaging and presentation Higher speed and precision compared to manual cutting
Main Components
Pneumatic Cutter Made from alloy aluminum Food grade stainless steel structure Blade shape customizable smooth or patterned Replaceable blades for different product sizes and shapes Hard anodized chimney to prevent contamination and corrosion
Blade Motion System Horizontal blade movement powered by pneumatic cylinder
Product Conveyor or Table Optional product position sensor for synchronized cutting
System Controller Controls blade timing and mold movement speed
Advantages and Applications
Uniform and precise cutting of product coatings Increased production speed and reduced dough waste
Key Performance Parameters
Air pressure and blade movement determine cutting accuracy and dough thickness Daily cleaning of blade and conveyor prevents material buildup and ensures consistent cutting quality
Compatibility The shell cutting system can be installed on Hadaf Machine depositor models 4000 6000 and Series B
Depositor Function Overview
Replaces manual pouring and increases production speed accuracy and uniformity Raw materials such as dough cream chocolate or filling are transferred from
the hopper to molds Pneumatic cylinders or precision pumps dispense exact quantities onto or into products Depositors can handle materials with various viscosities and densities
