Ultrasonic Food Cutting

Ultrasonic food cutting is one of Sonic Italia’s best known solutions. Our ultrasonic cutters for the food industry guarantee clean and precise slicing. All of this without affecting the homogeneity of the food product in any way whether it may be soft or containing fats, sugars, honey, creams and or chocolate, as it is common with desserts and confectionery.

 

Ultrasonic food cutting systems are commonly employed by dairy product manufacturers to portion hard or mild seasoned cheese that prove to be difficult to slice.

 

Ultrasonic blades may vary in length and height, depending on clients’ specific requirements. They are made out of titanium and comply with all of CE’s health and organoleptic standards regarding the automation field.

 

The digital generators that regulate our ultrasonic food cutting machinery offer the possibility to increase, decrease and modify their working parameters: amplitude, power output and time management.

 

For ultrasonic food cutting applications embedded into automated production lines, we provide vibrating groups with different frequencies ranging from 20, 30 to 40 kHz according to the end user’s requirements, keeping work safety and lack of noise during the manufacturing stage.
