Fresh-cut industry finds faster, cleaner cuts with new machine trio

FAM STUMABO, a specialist in food cutting technology, is offering a solution to the growing challenges in the fresh-cut vegetable sector. Rising labour costs, short lead times, and demand for variety are pushing processors to work faster without losing quality.

To meet these needs, FAM STUMABO developed a trio of machines — Dorphy™, Centris™ 315, and Flexis. Used together or on their own, they help companies slice, dice, and shred fruit and vegetables with speed, precision, and less waste.

Cutting for every need

Dorphy is ideal for dicing and julienne cuts of firm produce such as apples, carrots, and peppers.

Centris 315 delivers high-speed, uniform slicing and shredding of cabbage, beets, zucchini, and more.

Flexis is designed for leafy greens and herbs like lettuce, basil, and spring onions, cutting them cleanly without bruising.

Designed for today’s challenges

Processors say the machines make it easier to switch between produce and cut sizes while keeping a high level of consistency. This means longer shelf life, better texture, and more appealing products for ready-to-eat salads, meal kits, and foodservice.

A U.S. distributor highlighted the quick tool changes that allow many different cut sizes. In the Netherlands, a fresh produce company said the machines help improve both efficiency and the visual quality of products, which is vital for consumer appeal.

Balancing speed, quality, and cost

The equipment is designed to solve industry-wide problems: manual cutting that lacks consistency, increasing labour costs, and the need to handle different products across the seasons. By keeping cuts precise and reducing waste, FAM STUMABO’s machines improve both efficiency and profitability.
