What is a Hydro-Cutter?
A hydro-cutter is an industrial food processing machine that uses high-pressure water jets to cut and slice food products with precision. It consists of a pump, a high-pressure water system, and a cutting head. The water pressure can be adjusted to achieve different cutting effects and thicknesses, allowing it to easily cut through products of various shapes and sizes.
One of the key advantages of using a hydro-cutter is its ability to make precise cuts with minimal product waste. Additionally, the high-pressure water jet sanitizes the product during the cutting process, reducing the risk of bacterial contamination. This makes the hydro-cutter an invaluable tool in food processing, delivering accuracy, efficiency, and improved hygiene standards.

Innovative Hydro-Cutting Process
Step 1: Precision Sorting
Step 2: Perfect Cutting
The SFW Fin Aligner centers each potato before entering the cutting block. This reduces feathering and minimizes product damage, ensuring consistent cuts and maximizing product yield while also reducing oil absorption during frying.
Step 3: Dewatering and Sliver Sorting
After cutting, the product is gently slowed on a dewatering belt to prevent damage. An advanced sorting system separates slivers, which can be reused in other processes, minimizing food waste and maximizing efficiency.
Step 4: Sustainable Water Recycling
Our advanced water recycling system efficiently removes starch for other applications. Purified water is continuously reused, ensuring consistent cutting quality while supporting sustainable production practices.
Pioneering Technology with Continuous Improvement
SFW continues the water knife cutting technology pioneered by IMF, enhancing it with modular and skid-mounted systems used worldwide. Our automatic switcher allows continuous cutting by replacing plugged blocks ergonomically and safely.
