What Is Ultrasonic Food Cutting
Ultrasonic food cutting is a process of using ultrasonic to easily separate food. This technology converts electrical energy into ultrasonic waves through an ultrasonic transducer, which are then conducted to the ultrasonic knife to induce high-frequency vibrations. When the blade comes into contact with food, the high-frequency vibrations and cavitation effect of the ultrasonic knife are utilized to achieve efficient cutting. Ultrasonic cutting minimizes the problems of food sticking to the knife and high cutting resistance, and meets food-grade cleanliness standards, making it highly suitable for large-scale batch production.


What foods are suitable for ultrasonic cutting?
- 1. Sticky or Soft Foods – Chocolate: Avoids melting or sticking during cutting, maintaining a smooth surface (e.g., chocolate blocks, chocolate-coated foods). – Candies/Gummy: Such as gummy bears and marshmallows, featuring neat cutting edges without stringing.
- 2. Multi-Layered or Deformable Foods – Cakes/Desserts: Multi-layered cream cakes, cheesecakes, etc., ensuring no damage to the layered structure during cutting (e.g., layered cakes, cheesecakes). – Sandwiches/Hamburgers: Maintains shape when cutting bread or fillings, preventing extrusion (e.g., pre-made sandwiches, burger patties). – Sushi/Rolls: Such as sushi rolls and spring rolls, with flat cut surfaces and no knife sticking (e.g., sushi rolls, spring rolls).
- 3. High-Moisture or Fragile Foods – Fruits/Vegetables: – Soft fruits: Mango, kiwi, strawberry (reduces juice loss during cutting). – Crisp vegetables: Cucumber, celery, carrot (keeps cut surfaces smooth and avoids fragmentation). – Cooked Meats: Such as ham and sausages, reducing crumbs during cutting (e.g., ham, sausages). – Tofu/Dairy Products: Soft tofu, cheese (maintains shape and prevents crushing).
- 4. Frozen or Hard Foods – Frozen Desserts: Ice cream, frozen cakes, etc., allowing cutting without pre-thawing. – Nuts/Hard Candies: Such as almonds and hard candy pieces, reducing crumbs and splashes during cutting.
- 5. Special Processed Foods – Coated Foods: Such as chocolate-coated cookies and frosted pastries, protecting the outer coating from peeling during cutting.




Advantages of ultrasonic food cutting
- Non-stick Blade
- Prevents food adhesion, reduces cleaning frequency, and improves production efficiency.
- Ideal for high-viscosity foods (e.g., cheese, chocolate, cakes).
- Low Cutting Resistance
- Minimizes pressure during cutting, reducing food deformation and breakage.
- Extends blade lifespan and lowers maintenance costs.
- High-Speed & Industrial Compatibility
- Fast cutting speed, integrates seamlessly into automated production lines for mass production.
- Equipped with intelligent control systems for continuous, precise cutting.
- Perfect Cutting Surface
- Smooth, tear-free edges without debris, preserving food shape integrity.
- Reduces product waste and enhances visual appeal for market competitiveness.
