Urschel Cutting Solutions at Anuga FoodTec India

Urschel machinery exhibited will include both new and established equipment designed for precision slicing, dicing, strip cutting, shredding, and milling for continuous production.

• The Little Gem Aspire^™ Dicer, a new Urschel cutting concept in produce processing, will be the primary feature during Anuga FoodTec India. Engineered through extensive R&D by the Urschel Innovation and Development department, the compact dicer employs a patented StatiCut^™ knife assembly and crosscut knife assembly to achieve slices ranging from 2 mm – 20 mm, dices up to 20 mm, and strip cuts. Named after the original Little Gem, the new dicer combines easy use with strong performance, expanding on its predecessor that led Urschel to become the global leader it is today. 

• The DiversaCut 2110A^® Dicer is designed to deliver slices, dices, strips, and shreds at large-scale capacities featuring an all-encompassing system that streamlines usability. A maximum infeed product of 10″ (254 mm) in any dimension allows for labor-cost savings and waste reduction by eliminating the need to precut products.

• The E TranSlicer^® Cutter continuously processes firm and leafy, compressible products through interchangeable stainless steel cutting options for uninterrupted production. Optional static hold-down, non-powered top belts or powered top-belt hold-down assemblies are available to maintain positive feeding assistance. Interchangeable stainless steel cutting options include slicing, patented MicroSlice^® and julienne wheels.

• The CC Slicer, the leading high-yield potato slicer across the globe, produces precise, uniform slices and shreds at high capacities for applications including potato slices, fruits, vegetables, and cheese. The CC at Anuga FoodTec India will be equipped with a MicroAdjustable^® SL-14 Slicing Head, which houses 14 cutting stations to maximize precision slicing.

• As the most versatile machine in the Comitrol^® line, the Comitrol^® Processor Model 1700 offers many high-capacity reduction possibilities for unlimited continuous production, including comminuting, granulating, milling, flaking, slicing, liquefying, dispersing, and pureeing.

• The Comitrol^® Disc Mill 380 (DM 380) features a unique disc plate design and adjustable gap setting to process nuts in small batches or for high-volume, continuous production. The machine reduces whole/split nuts into a flowable nut butter or paste, and butter texture is controlled through the plate gap adjustment.

KRONEN Processing Solutions at Anuga FoodTec India

KRONEN machinery will round out the booth display at Anuga FoodTec India. Investing in KRONEN allows Urschel to expand its inventory beyond solely industry-leading precision cutting machinery to fully support processors in all aspects of production.

• The multifunctional, belt-fed GS 10-2 Slicer boasts effective and gentle slicing, dicing, shredding, grating, and segmenting solutions across many product groups, making it an ideal high-capacity cutting option for food processors. Product enters the machine on a built-in flat conveyor that moves it toward the rotating cutting knife at speeds preset on the keypad, which allows for the adjustment of cut thickness without having to change the knife.

• The PL 40K Potato Peeler is a robust, production-proven machine for washing and peeling potatoes, carrots, beetroot, cabbage turnips (kohlrabi), and other root vegetables in small and medium-sized rugged production environments. The standard equipment with an abrasive system enables the paper-thin, gentle removal of the peel, and the entire cycle of filling, peeling, and emptying in a matter of minutes. With the PL 40K, it is possible to switch from the peeling function to a pure washing function in a few simple steps.

• The KS-100 PLUS Spin-Dryer is a top KRONEN spin-dryer for its ergonomic design, counter-rotating centrifuge cycle, and 99 program memory locations to efficiently dry a variety of food items including lettuce, cut fruit and vegetables, canned products, pickled food products, caviar, and more at a high capacity. These features, paired with optimal spinning results, the potential to reduce draining times, and user-friendly operation make the dryer a popular choice worldwide.
