A device and a method for providing a product stream with mutually aligned food products on product substrates are described According thereto, a first conveyor belt for the supply transport and mutual transverse alignment of the food products to each other, a second conveyor belt that adjoins in the direction of transport at a gap-shaped belt transition and can be controlled separately for the discharge transport and mutual longitudinal alignment of the food products to each other, and a substrate placement device for supplying the product substrates from below through the belt transition in front of/under the food products that are respectively transported across the belt transition. This enables the alignment and substrate placement in a particularly compact and reliable configuration at a single belt transition.
A device for providing a product stream of mutually aligned food products on product substrates, comprising:
A method for providing a product stream of mutually aligned food products on product substrate, where said food products are transported in on a first conveyor belt and are aligned relative to one another in said transverse direction by mechanical adjustment of at least one deflection roller of said first conveyor belt, where said product substrate is supplied from below at said end of said first conveyor belt on the outlet side and said food products are received and transported away by way of said supplied product substrate by a second conveyor belt adjoining in said direction of transport, and where said food products are aligned relative to one another in said longitudinal direction by adjusting the speed of said first and/or said second conveyor belt.
