Rademaker - Guillotine

• Used for precise cutting of dough sheets into specific shapes or sizes for products like pastries, biscuits, or bread.
• Employed in the production of laminated doughs to create consistent layers and portions.
• Utilised in confectionery manufacturing for portioning various slab products.
• Integrated into automated bakery lines for high-volume dough processing.

Typical cutting width

For this class of equipment, cutting widths commonly range from 400mm to 1200mm, depending on the specific model and intended application.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on 3-phase industrial power, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage requirements based on motor size and automation level.

Throughput

Throughput capacity is highly variable, typically depending on the cutting width, stroke speed, and integration with upstream and downstream equipment.

Material construction

Components in contact with food are commonly made from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) to meet hygiene standards.

Cutting mechanism

Typically features a pneumatic or servo-driven blade for precise, repeatable cuts.

Safety features

Commonly includes safety interlocks, emergency stops, and protective guarding to comply with machinery directives.
