ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an apparatus and a method for processing edibles, such as fruit, which are sliced and then sectioned. Watermelon is one of such edibles or fruit which is first sliced generally transverse of its long axis. These sliced pieces are automatically fed and moved to apparatus for sectioning the fruit. These sliced portions with their ends removed are then fed by automatic means into a sectioning apparatus where these circular portions of fruit are then cut into pie-shaped sections. After sectioning, a stick may be inserted into each sectional piece. The sectioned pieces may be wrapped and/or frozen, if desired. The apparatus and method steps are automatically and repetitively produced with appropriate high speeds that deliver shaped segments to further processing such as wrapping and/or freezing.
