Abstract:
A slicing and conveying system (28) forms a three or more flavor-combined draft. Slicing machine slice a succession of first slices in the form of shingled draft side-by-side (A, B, C, D) on an output conveyor (180). An overlap conveyor merges side-by-side shingled drafts into an elongated combined draft. Sensors (192, 194) determine the lengths of the side-by-side drafts and the combined drafts. A control receives input from the sensors and outputs a control signal to the output conveyors to adjust the spacing of the slices.
