Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0363220A2] A machine for cutting slabs of fresh or frozen tempered meat into diced sections and defined by a conveyor assembly (21) comprised of a feed belt (23) and an associated spring-biased feed roll (67), a strip cutting assembly (47) comprised of a first knife roll (114) of circular knives (115) and an associated drum (117), and a crosscut assembly comprised of a second knife roll (124) of elongate knives (127) and an associated stripper plate (49) provided with a corresponding shear edge (129), with edge portions of the circular knives (115) being intermeshed within slots (145) formed in the stripper plate (49) and peripheral grooves (135) formed in both the feed roll and feed drum. The feed drum (117) is configured to retard the movement of fresh meat slabs being conveyed through the strip cutting assembly during which the circular knives are rotated at a peripheral speed that is at least twice the peripheral speed of the feed drum.
