Product Description
The hydro cutter for French fries, also called a water‑knife cutter or potato hydrocutter, uses high‑pressure water to transport and cut products.
During cutting, potatoes are held in water and pumped under high pressure through stationary stainless‑steel cutting blades, resulting in delicately and precisely cut French fries with attractive appearance.
The hydro cutter can slice a variety of products such as potatoes and carrots; products are transported into storage tanks, enter closed waterways and are cut at high speed by a specially developed knife holder into halves, quarters, sixths or other shapes.
High volume cutting
Depending on the application, system capacity can range from about 500 kg/h up to 20,000 kg/h for large‑scale French fries and vegetable processing.
Lengthwise cutting quality
Hydro cutters are especially suitable when product length is larger than diameter, providing lengthwise cuts with clean surfaces and minimal damage.
Clean and precise cuts
Controlled product velocity and sharp stainless‑steel blades produce very clean cuts and high‑quality product profiles.
Flexible profile cutting
Supports constant cross‑section lengthwise cuts and can be adapted for different special‑cut shapes as market demand grows.
