Automatic bell pepper processing for large quantities - the PDS4L pepper decoring and cutting system optimally complements the KRONEN machine portfolio. The latest version of pepper decorers is perfect for decoring and halving or quartering peppers (paprika).

The PDS4L enables efficient processing with high capacity: per cycle, four peppers are placed at the same time. This means that up to 60 peppers per minute and thus 3,600 peppers per hour can be processed. Thanks to its simple operation, the system can be handeled by just one person.

The peppers are manually placed on a servomotor-operated belt with product holders, which transports them to the decoring and cutting station. The products are conveyed step by step (electrically by start / stop) so that they can be positioned very easily.

The special product holders ensure that the peppers remain optimally positioned when cut and that an ideal processing result is achieved. After cutting, the product and waste are discharged separately from one another.
