FAQ
The BCM-1650 is already employed for a wide range of products beyond vegetables, fruits, and herbs, and our team of experts can evaluate the potential for cutting your specific product. If it proves feasible, you are welcome to visit our demonstration facility, where we can conduct the testing in person. Alternatively, you have the option to send us the product, and we will perform the testing while coordinating a video call with you. If preferred, we can also record a video demonstration for your convenience.
We understand that selecting the right knives and options can be a challenging task given the multitude of choices available. To assist you in making the best decision for your specific needs, we offer several resources:
- Download the BCM-1650 Brochure to view an overview of the available knives and see samples of the cutting results.
- Contact our team for personalized guidance and recommendations. You can reach us via email at info@jegerings.com, through our contact form, or by calling +31493312371.
When deciding between the BCM-1650 and BCM-2450, the primary consideration is the infeed belt length. The BCM-2450 features an 80 cm longer infeed belt, allowing space for up to 4 operators to load products onto the belt. In contrast, the BCM-1650 accommodates 2 operators. Your choice should align with how many operators you need to efficiently feed the belt.
- Product Preparation: Evaluate the level of product preparation required before placing items on the cutting belt. Products that need extensive preparation, such as stem removal or core extraction, may benefit from additional operators to ensure a smooth workflow.
- Hourly Capacity: Assess your desired hourly cutting capacity. If you aim to maximize the machine's full 1000 kg/h capacity, it's likely that you will require more operators to keep the belt supplied with products.
Ultimately, the choice between the BCM-1650 and BCM-2450 hinges on your workforce, product preparation requirements, and production goals. Evaluate these factors to determine which model best suits your vegetable processing needs. If you need further assistance or have specific questions, please feel free to contact us for personalized guidance and recommendations.
The BCM-1650 offers versatile cutting options, capable of achieving one-dimensional and two-dimensional cuts such as squares or chunks. However, it cannot cut three-dimensionally (cubes). For three-dimensional dicing, we recommend our specialized 3DD dicing machine.
