Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017133972A1] The invention relates to a method for slicing food products by means of a slicing device which has a working region with a cutting region and a transport region, wherein products to be sliced are supplied to the cutting region on a single track or on multiple tracks and are sliced at the end of the cutting region by means of a cutting blade that is moved in a cutting plane, especially in a rotating and/or circulating manner. According to the invention, the products to be sliced are scanned at at least one scanning point by exactly one compact sensor which is operating contactlessly and is arranged in the working region. The operation of the slicing device is controlled as a function of the outer contour of the products, wherein a part of the contour of the product is detected by means of the compact sensor and a part of the contour of the product, which cannot be detected by means of the compact sensor, is predetermined.
