Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017060134A1] The present invention relates to a method for cutting a food product, in particular a food product strand, into portions, in particular into strips or cubes, comprising the following method steps: a) The food product is advanced to a cutting device (2) by means of an advancing device (12). b) Successive portions are cut off from the food product from an end of the food product which faces the cutting device (2) by means of at least one cutting element (3), wherein the cutting element (3) is guided by means of a disc-shaped cutting element carrier (4), on which the cutting element (3) is arranged, wherein the cutting element carrier (4) is rotated about a drive axis (10) which is oriented at least substantially parallel to an advancing direction (7) of the advancing device (12). c) During one-time guiding of the cutting element (3) past the end of the food product, a multiplicity of strip-shaped portions are produced. In order to provide a method, by means of which it is possible to produce cube-shaped portions in a particularly rapid manner, according to the invention the portions which are being produced are cut to size by means of at least one length cutting device (5) after the cutting by means of the at least one cutting element (3). The present invention further relates to a corresponding device.
