ABSTRACT:
An improved and modified cheese stacking machine for forming stacks of individually wrapped slices of cheese. Individual cheese slices are wrapped, cut and delivered in the machine to a discharge assembly where the individually wrapped slices are stacked one atop the other. A cam shaft rotates as the machine cycles and mounts a plurality of cams which operate cam switches to cause discharge of the stacks. An electrically operated clutch is provided between the cam shaft and the driving means, and an electro-optical sensor is mounted for sensing each slice as it is delivered to the discharge assembly. A counter is connected to the sensor for accumulating a count indicating the slices stacked since the last discharge, and the clutch operated upon a predetermined count to cause the stack to be discharged.
