Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus for forming total portions which at least comprise product slices which are cut off from a plurality of food products, having a machine assembly having a plurality of machine units comprising a plurality of slicing apparatus and a placement device which comprises at least one placement region travelable between the slicing apparatus, having a display device, having an evaluation device communicating with the display device, and having a system control which communicates with individual controls associated with the machine units and with the configuration device, wherein a respective total portion can be created from a plurality of different individual portions by means of the display device.

Claims21

Dependent claims

An apparatus for forming total portions which at least comprise product slices which are cut-off from a plurality of food products, wherein the total portions each comprise a plurality of individual portions which are each formed from at least one product slice, having

a machine assembly having a plurality of machine units, comprising
a plurality of slicing apparatus which each have at least one product feed with which at least one product to be sliced is fed to a cutting plane in which at least one cutting blade moves;
and
a placement device which comprises at least one placement region which can be traveled between the slicing apparatus and on which a total portion is formed from product slices cut off by means of the slicing apparatus;
a configuration device having
a display device;
and
an evaluation device communicating with the display device;
and
a system control which communicates with individual controls associated with the machine units and with the configuration device,
wherein a respective total portion can be created from a plurality of different individual portions by means of the display device;
wherein the evaluation device is configured to provide a configuration data set determined by a predefined total portion;
and
wherein the system control is configured to predefine a machine data set from a provided configuration data set and to control the machine assembly on the basis of the predefined machine data set such that total portions corresponding to the predefined total portion are formed,
in that individual portions formed successively by different slicing apparatus are placed on the placement region of the placement device.
