Ultrasonic Cutting Technology for Cutting 60x40cm Cakes
Ultrasonic Cutting Technology for Cutting 60x40cm Cakes – Cheersonic
Unlike conventional blades that cut with pure downward pressure, ultrasonic cutters vibrate the blade at an extremely high frequency (typically 20,000 to 40,000 times per second, or 20-40kHz). This minute vibration significantly reduces friction, allowing the blade to cut the product with incredible cleanliness and precision.
How Cutting 60x40cm Tray Cakes Works
There are two main configurations for processing full-size tray cakes:
- Gantry System Cutting Machine: This is the most common type for large trays. The ultrasonic cutting head is mounted on a moving gantry (X-Y axis frame) above a fixed cutting bed that holds the 60x40cm tray. The head moves precisely under computer control to make any cut.
- Conveyor System Cutting Machine: For high-volume production, the machine is integrated with a conveyor. Trays are fed into the machine, and the ultrasonic head cuts the product as it moves over or under the head.
Key Benefits of Cake Cutting
- Extremely Clean Cuts: Vibration prevents crumbs, smearing, and sticking. This is crucial for products with the following characteristics:
* Sticky frostings (such as marshmallows, fondant, and gummies)
* Gooey fillings (such as preserved fruits, caramel, and cheesecake)
* Multi-layered products where clean layers are visually important.
* Very soft and delicate cakes (such as angel food cakes) that can be crushed with traditional blades. - Precision and Flexibility: Because the cuts are programmed via software (CNC), you can change the cutting pattern instantly. You can cut:
* Standard squares and rectangles of any size.
* Complex shapes: Circles, hexagons, section markings, brand logos, and even completely custom shapes on a single tray. - Automation and Hygiene: The process is fully automated, hands-free, and consistent. These systems are typically made of food-grade stainless steel for easy cleaning, reduced labor, and improved food safety.
- Sealed Edges: Ultrasonic energy can slightly “seal” the cut edge, which is particularly beneficial for very moist cakes, helping to retain moisture and improve shelf life.
Is an ultrasonic cutter the right choice for you?
An ultrasonic cake cutter is the ideal solution if your operation meets the following criteria:
- High Volume: You process a large number of trays daily.
- High-Quality, Challenging Products: Your primary products are high-value items with sticky frostings, delicate crumbs, or viscous fillings, where presentation is critical.
- Frequent Shape Changes: You need the flexibility to cut many different and complex shapes from the same machine without changing any physical tooling.
- Budget Availability: You have the funds to invest in top-tier technology to reap tangible rewards in product quality and waste reduction.
For cutting standard 60×40 cm cake trays into various sizes, an ultrasonic gantry system is the ultimate tool for achieving precision, flexibility, and flawless quality on difficult-to-cut products. It’s not just a simple, bulky tool for cutting cakes, but a high-tech solution that maximizes yield and presentation for premium goods.
For most bakeries, a traditional automatic vertical cutter is sufficient. However, if your product line experiences messy cuts on sticky items and you require the ability to cut custom shapes, an ultrasonic machine is the ultimate solution, provided the investment is reasonable.
About Cheersonic
Cheersonic manufactures the leading portioning equipment for bakeries producing fresh and frozen desserts. Since 1998 bakers have used Cheersonic machines to cut, slice and portion cheesecake, pie, layer cake, loaves, butter, cheese, pizza, sandwichs, and more. Cheersonic offers ultrasonic cutting solutions that support start-up bakeries and high production commercial facilities alike. Small standalone machines can be used in manual baking facilities and large inline robotic solutions aid in high speed production.
Cheersonic offers many ultrasonic slicing models, both inline and offline applications, with production speeds of 80 to 1,500 cakes or pies per hour.
Cheersonic’ latest offline introductions include ultrasonic cutting with or without divider inserts between each slice. This improves the quality of the cut and makes for a much better product presentation for the customer. In addition, robotic arm improves the speed, efficiency, and accuracy of the cutting process, producing professional looking products every time.
