FAQ – Ultrasonic Food Cutting
Ultrasonic food cutting is a precise cutting process that uses vibrations to slice through food products with minimal resistance. Electrical energy is converted into mechanical vibrations and transferred to the cutting blade, known as the sonotrode. Depending on the application, the sonotrode vibrates between 20,000 and 35,000 times per second in the direction of the cut.
This rapid motion reduces friction between the blade and the product, allowing for clean and consistent cuts even in soft, sticky, or multi-layered foods.
Ultrasonic cutting can be used for continuous and intermittent applications. The most common applications include:
- Slicing cheese, cakes, bread, and chocolate bars
- Portioning frozen and chilled foods
- Cutting sticky or delicate ingredients with precision

Compared to conventional cutting methods like blades or wire cutters, ultrasonic food cutting offers clear advantages in quality, efficiency, and process stability.
- Precise cuts without pressure
The sonotrode vibrates up to 35,000 times per second. This enables precise material separation nearly without any pressure — preventing product deformation, smearing, or crushing, even with soft, layered, or sticky products like cakes, cheese, or bars.
- Clean surfaces, less waste
The high-frequency vibration greatly reduces friction and product sticking, resulting in clean cut surfaces and minimal residue. This improves hygiene and reduces product waste, saving costs and increasing output.
- Higher productivity, lower maintenance
Our durable ultrasonic systems enable faster cutting speeds and require less maintenance due to minimal tool wear. Even in continuous operation, our cutting sonotrodes can last up to 18 months and more. This leads to fewer unplanned stops and greater line efficiency.
- Energy-efficient operation
Ultrasonic cutting works without pre-cooling food and is largely temperature-independent, helping to reduce energy consumption and avoid production delays like empty oven runs due to maintenance.

As booster and sonotrode are made of metals, they are safe for CIP. The converter being the only part of the ultrasonic stack that is connected to electricity, this is critical for cleaning and CIP. Therefore, we offer converters with IP65 and IP67 in a protective tube system.
If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to contact our team. We're looking forward to your message!
Since ultrasonic cutting blades cut through food easily without pressure or resistance, the process is extremely fast. The cutting process can therefore be flexibly adjusted to the manufacturing speed without being a limiting factor in any way.
