Abstract

See full text

In a method of slicing products, in particular food products, a plurality of products are supplied next to one another along a product support to a cutting plane in which a cutting blade moves, in particular in a rotating and/or revolving manner. The products are initially offset relative to one another in a stepped manner in the product supply direction via the product conveyors in that, starting from a first product, the further products up to the respective outermost product, which are arranged next to one another at at least one side, are set back by a respective amount against the product supply direction, and indeed further than the respective preceding product. The products offset in a stepped manner with respect to one another are traveled to light barriers at a defined speed. The positions of the product starts are detected with respect to the cutting plane via the light barriers.
