Marchant Schmidt VCS20 cheese portion cutter

The Marchant Schmidt VCS20 high-speed fixed weight cheese portion cutter maximises block yield by using 3D vision scanning software and cameras that simultaneously scan the geometry of each individual slab of cheese. The VCS also has the capability of utilising a 20 kg block cutter integrated into the line for a complete portioning system.

The scanning software minimises giveaway while maximising yield. Adding the quad cutting module will increase the throughput of the cutter. Cutting and production speeds can be increased with optional multiple cutting stations.

The portion cutter analyses each stick to create the optimum cut solution with vision scanning software. It features a slicer-style gripper for constant portion control throughout the cutting process and a single guillotine cuts both lanes. The transfer conveyor is cantilevered for sanitary purposes.

Flexibility, reduced downtime and quick product changeover capabilities are further features.
