Abstract
An apparatus for cutting a foodstuff strand into a succession of pieces has a conveyor for continuously displacing the strand in a direction through a cutting station, a vertical guide rail in the station, a blade in the station lying in a vertical plane, and a holder carrying the blade and vertically displaceable along the rail. An actuator braced between the guide rail and the holder is operable to vertically reciprocate the blade. Upper and lower wheels rotatable about respective upper and lower axes generally parallel to the plane and perpendicular to the direction have offset from the respective axes respective upper and lower pivots attached to the mount. A drive/controller connected to the actuator and to the wheels vertically reciprocates the mount and rotates the wheels for cutting through the strand with the blade while moving the blade synchronously in the direction with the strand.
