A wide variety of cutting shapes and processing without manual effort

Due to the variety of grid cutting inserts available, the pneumatically operated PGW can be used to process a wide range of fruit and vegetables. It can be used to core, segment or cut products into many different shapes such as cubes, strips, slices, segments or sticks. Special punching forms such as apple or pepper corers, kiwi corers and mango corers are also available. Pineapple can additionally be peeled, cored and cut. Inserts are also available for special cuts such as diamonds, boats and disks in various sizes, as well as decorative shapes (stars, hearts and many more).

The product to be processed is manually positioned onto the cutting insert mounted on the PGW. Pressing the buttons activates the cutting process and, depending on the knife used, the product is punched into the appropriate shape. The cut product drops down into a prepared container or onto an optionally available conveyor belt for product discharge.

In the standard version, the PGW is a tabletop device; a mobile base frame is optionally available.
