Pepper coring and dividing system
In the food processing industry, preparing peppers for further processing often involves labor-intensive manual work. This can lead to inconsistent results and high labor costs, especially when handling large quantities of bell peppers.

Core and divide bell peppers efficiently
The PDS4L from KRONEN, developed with Hitec Food Systems, is a semi-automatic system designed for the efficient coring and dividing of bell peppers. It handles up to 3,360 peppers per hour, reducing labor requirements by up to 50%. Each cycle processes four peppers, cleating them on a stainless-steel belt to a synchronized cutting bridge. The core and stalk are removed simultaneously and transported via a waste belt. The resulting product can be quartered or halved with included or optional knife sets. This system requires minimal maintenance and is easy to clean, ensuring a high yield and consistent quality.
