Today, the production of visually appealing products with different feed materials and geometries forms part of every modern food producer’s portfolio. It usually requires several machines to be able to offer a large variety of products. “The all-in-one Handtmann FS 525 forming and cutting system solves this problem by offering the application of both forming and separating technologies in a single machine,” explains the jury. “Prerequisite for this is a machine design with an innovative drive concept.”

The new FS 525 combines two different forming principles and thus offers unprecedented flexibility in the production of formed products: The hole plate moulding technology can be used to produce freely formed 3D products (product examples include balls, rissoles, mini rissoles, fish rissoles, cevapcici, potato croquettes, dumplings, dough products and more). The rotary cutter can be used to produce varying cross-sections with a straight gut (product examples include burgers, homemade burgers, nuggets, fish sticks, vegetable patties, cheese sticks and slices, butter sticks and slices, fruit bars and more). The optional use of a flattening belt with different structuring rollers further expands the given product design options. The forming technology can be quickly changed in under 3 minutes. This new machine concept reduces acquisition costs and boosts both the flexibility and efficiency in food production. The FS 525 forming and cutting system can be easily incorporated into integrated processes or be synchronised with automation options, such as the Handtmann weighing system.
