One of the features of ultrasonic cutting technology is its ability to perform fast and accurate cutting.
The traditional cutting process makes it possible with the aid of a sharp blade, and alternatively it is the ultrasonic cutting that does the job through the high-frequency vibration. This way of the process is significantly minimizing friction with the result that accuracy and cutting speed are improved. Usually, ultrasonic cutting machines are designed of ultrasonic generators, transducers, amplifiers and cutting knives, and the frequency ranges from 20,000 to 40,000 Hz.
Recently, the emergence of technology brought about the cutting machines, which are more compact and portable. For instance, the most modern ultrasonic kitchen knives are all in the handle with no bulky cables and outside units, which are more suitable for home kitchens. This move not only enhances the user experience but also makes ultrasonic cutting technology part of home cooking that is more widely accepted.
Application cases of ultrasonic cutting machines in the catering chain
Ultrasonic cutting machines are increasingly being used in the food and catering industry. Here are some typical application cases:
High-end restaurants: A large number of the high-end restaurants are adopting ultrasonic cutting machines for processing sensitive ingredients such as cakes, chocolates and cheese. This technique of cutting ensures that every food item has a perfect appearance and, instead, enriches the whole visual character of the dish which in the end adds to the creativity of the designer.
Food processing plants make use of ultrasonic cutters in the production of bulk items such as bread, frozen meats, and fruits. The high-speed cutting power provided by this new technology enables optimized production, which not only increases the speed of completion but also lowers food damage and loss.
In the fast food industry ultrasonic cutters are used to rapidly serve sandwiches, pizzas, and other fast foods that are made to a definite standard.”
How can one equip ultrasonic cutters in their kitchen to? The increase the cooking experience.
Most people are afraid to use ultrasonic cutters in home cooking as it seems to them like a complex technique:
- Clean cutting: A wide variety of ingredients is easily portioned by an ultrasonic cutter. One of the best things about an ultrasonic cutter is that it can even cut hard veggies which saves a lot of time and effort.
- The preservation of the ingredients’ life is one of the added advantages of ultrasonic cutting. Since Ultrasonic cutting does not bring about deformation or loss of juice of the ingredients, it can better keep the nutrition values and freshness of the ingredients.
- Diversification: Many ultrasonic cutters have interchangeable blades that can adjust to various types of ingredients, which are essential in domestic kitchens as well.
- Better protection: Ultrasonic cutters also provide more safety to workers by being intentionally designed to prevent personal injury due to traditional knives that can be very sharp.
The position of ultrasonic cutting machines in the healthy eating of people
Ultrasonic cutting machines are also important in healthy food campaigns:
Minimized nutrient depletion: Ultrasonic cutting technology comes with the highest potential to retain all the necessary vitamins and minerals found in the food products. The technology of the ultrasonic cutter plays an essential role in nutrient retention. It does so by transferring minimal energy to the surrounding materials thus maintaining the vitamin and mineral content in its most natural state with very little damage.
Reforming the way people shop for food: By refining the methods of cutting with high accuracy and precision, ultrasonic cutting machines are a very efficient manufacturers and the foodservice industry to use raw materials freshly and thereby cut down the use of precooked products.
Facilitating healthy eating habits: The ease of ultrasonic cutting machines enables the quick and precise preparation of healthy meals, which motivates individuals to eat fresh fruits and vegetables and to choose a balanced diet.
As a conclusion, besides the technical advancements that ultrasonic food cutting machines have undergone, they are also proof that they can be used in wide applications, such as in the foodservice industry and home kitchens. Along with the major trend of being concerned about health that is emerging, the ultrasonic concussion technology will play a crucial role in the changes that are already happening in food processing and cooking.
