KRONEN food technology: process vegan products, e.g. cutting or tearing soy and pea protein sheets

Perfect & flexible cutting of vegan protein products

At KRONEN, we offer special solutions for processing extruded soy and pea protein blocks as well as other vegan products. Our machines can, for example,

  • pull protein plates into fibers with a handmade look or
  • cut in perfect quality and with varying cuts as well as
  • spin-dry other ingredients for vegan products - e.g. mushrooms for vegan pizza or cucumbers for vegan tzatziki,
  • wash soy beans,
  • and disinfect packaging, containers and (packaged) food using UVC.

You will also find everything from A to Z for washing, spinning and cutting vegetables, salad leaves and fruit.

Your benefits

We can do what others cannot: Among other things, our solutions are optimized for the production of sliced or pulled soy and pea protein products - our cutting machines ensure a result with perfect quality. Afterwards, the cut products can be processed directly where they are usually garnished and packed in “trays”.

The GS 20 belt cutting machine can process tofu and other vegan protein plates. With an infeed belt 250 mm wide, it is perfectly suited to processing blocks. Alternatively, for smaller capacities and products up to 125 mm width, the GS 10-2 belt cutting machine can be used. With a large selection of high-quality knives, both belt cutting machines offer the possibility of a wide variety of cuts. The tearing knife can also be used to pull the plates.

Application examples

With the GS 20 belt cutting machine or the GS 10-2 belt cutting machine and varying knife options, products (e.g. tofu) can be produced in excellent, uniform quality. Extruded soy and pea protein blocks can also be cut into different slices or cutting patterns - and processed in different thicknesses. They can also be pulled with the tearing knife: different fiber widths and lengths are possible.

The GS 20 has the following advantages: It enables higher capacities of up to 1 ton per hour and, with an infeed belt 250 mm wide, is ideally suited for processing soy and pea protein plates. 

The KS-100 PLUS vegetable and salad spin-dryer is ideal for spinning all kinds of herbs, vegetables and salad, as well as defrosted pieces of peppers or onions that have been washed beforehand. The draining times for canned products can be considerably reduced, e.g. mushrooms, pineapple, shrimps, tuna, etc.
