Automated coring and dividing of large quantities of lettuce, cabbage or peppers

The Multicorer prepares products such as iceberg lettuce, frisée, endive, radicchio or red and white cabbage (generally round cabbage varieties), as well as peppers, for subsequent processing steps by coring and dividing them. 

Operation of the machine during processing is very simple: the product is placed onto the product holders with the stalk facing downwards by one person. The diameter of the processed products may not exceed 240 mm. The plates with the product holders move in the direction of the cutting unit at the set speed – with up to 20 cycles per minute. There, the products are cored and divided into two or four segments. The pieces of the product are transported further and discharged onto an optional discharge conveyor located at the end.  
All cutting cassettes can be changed quickly with no tools required. 
The cutting machine is available in two versions: the standard model has four lanes, but it is also available with two lanes.

There are different cutting cartridges available for different coring diameters
Knife cassettes for various cutting diameters

The different knife cassettes enable processing with different cutter diameters (45 mm and 55 mm as standard). Depending on the respective application, knife cassettes with a stainless steel mandrel (for firmer products such as cabbage) or a plastic mandrel are used. All knife cassettes divide products into quarters but they can be easily and quickly converted to cut products in half by using tools.

Cassette holders for a safe and quick change
