What's the principle of ultrasonic cutting?
RPS-SONIC offers high quality ultrasonic food cutting components,
including ultrasonic generators, transducers, guillotines and
slitters.
Ultrasonic food cutting system are comprised of the following
components: a generator or power source; transducer; ultrasonic
booster; cutting tool or horn; and a material handling system,
Aurand explains.
Ultrasonic food cutting uses high frequency vibratory knives.
Applying ultrasonic vibration to a cutting tool creates a nearly
frictionless cutting surface which provides many benefits,
according to Bill Aurand, packaging technology manager at Sonics &
Materials, Inc.
“This low friction cutting surface can slice many food products
cleanly and without smearing. Very thin slices are also possible
due to the reduced resistance,” says Aurand.
Foods containing items such as vegetables, meats, nuts, berries and
fruits can be cut without deformation or displacement of the
internal product. The low-friction condition also reduces product
sticking to the cutting tools, resulting in more consistent cuts
and less down time for cleaning. And because of the advanced
process control that is available in ultrasonic generators, cutting
performance can be manipulated by adjusting the equipment
parameters.
ultrasonic food cutting technology can slicing cheese, breads,
cakes, raisin butter, wheat bran, fried meat, fruits and
vegetables. Minimal to no smearing on layered food products, ease
of cutting products with filler materials, and consistent slices
are few of the many advantages of ultrasonic food cutting.
Application
• Hard and soft cheeses, including products containing pieces of
nuts and fruit
• Sandwiches, wraps, and pizzas for catering industries
• Nougat, candy bars, granola bars and healthy snack bars
• Semi-frozen meats and fish
• Fresh or frozen vegetables
• Breads or cake products
• Ice cream and other frozen snacks
Advantage
• Especially for cutting high viscosity food;
• Cutting is more efficient and clean
• The cut food is neat and beautiful
• Food grade material, safe and reliable
• Special materials are easier to clean and maintain
The vibratory motion provides much more of the cutting effect than
the sharpness of the tools, he adds. However, high frequency
vibration applied to cutting tools does provide significant
benefits. Primarily, ultrasonic technology enhances the cut quality
and consistency, and enables the ability to cleanly slice
multi-textured food products without deformation.
