A multiple-lane apparatus for cutting and coring fruits has a frame (1), and fruit holding flights (7) shaped with a number of recesses (10) inferiorly provided with an opening (11) through which a part of the fruit protrudes. Above the conveyor (2) an upper supporting member (14) supports inferiorly a plurality of cutting units (17), and superiorly a plurality of pushers (21) provided with plungers (24) passing downwards through said upper supporting member (14) along the respective cutting unit (17). Each fruit (P) is cut when the upper supporting member (14) is moved downwards. A plurality of bearing elements (18) are individually provided with a plate (5) and keyed to a swinging shaft (19) so that the plate (5) closes each opening (11) during the cutting of the fruit (P), and opens it during the activation of the pushers (21) for the ejection of the core (T).
