Abstract

An apparatus for shaping a strand-shaped foodstuff is disclosed. A pressing chamber is provided, which is delimited by walls, one of which is movable by means of a pressing device and is designed as a ram. The pressing chamber transitions from an initial state with a first enclosed volume into a final state with a second enclosed volume. The apparatus has a feed device for feeding the foodstuff into the pressing chamber, and a discharge device for discharging the foodstuff from the pressing chamber. For compact construction, it is provided that a ram of a first pressing device, which ram comes into contact with the foodstuff located in the pressing chamber, is coupled to at least one second pressing device movable in a different direction and/or to a wall of the pressing chamber so that the second pressing device can be moved together with the ram relative to the foodstuff.
