A METHOD AND A DEVICE FOR CUTTING FOOD DOUGH

摘要

The present inventions provide a method and an apparatus for cutting flattened food dough into long-shaped food dough, without adding stress to the food dough. The method for cutting flattened food dough 3 into a long and continuous shape, comprising: (a) a process for cutting the flattened food dough 3 by moving a cutter 7 relative to the food dough 3 from one lateral end to the other lateral end of the food dough 3, and a process for discontinuing the cutting process by lifting up the cutter 7 from the food dough 3 so that an uncut part is left near the other lateral end; (b) a process for cutting the flattened food dough 3 from the other lateral end to the one lateral end of the food dough 3 after moving the cutter 7 relative to the food dough 3 along the direction perpendicular to the direction to cut the food dough 3, and a process for discontinuing the cutting process by lifting up the cutter 7 from the food dough 3 so that an uncut part is left near the one lateral end; (c) a process for moving the cutter 7 relative to the food dough 3 along the direction perpendicular to the direction to cut the food dough 3; and (d) processes for repeating the processes (a) to (c).
