ABSTRACT:
The invention aims at improving an apparatus for dividing fillets into portions, such as, for example, tails, loins and possibly center pieces by effecting the necessary dividing cuts while simultaneously and automatically safe-guarding an adaptation to the particular fillet dimensions or other optically striking features. To this end, a cutting mechanism arranged above a fillet supplying conveying surface and constituted by at least one cutting member is suggested, whose circular knife has a flattened portion, which, when facing the conveying surface, offers a passage position of the circular knife and by a well defined rotation makes it possible to bring the knife into the cutting position. The cutting members are controlled by computing the dimensions and/or optically striking features of a fillet image obtained by means of a video camera and supplied to a computer.
