    Abstract: There is presented a cutting apparatus for cutting a food object, said apparatus comprising at least one cutting blade, an actuator arranged for moving the cutting blade before and during cutting, and an element comprising a receiving section arranged for receiving and abutting the cutting blade, such as at a point in time prior to cutting, and a supporting section arranged for supporting a food object before and during cutting, wherein during cutting the supporting section is arranged for being displaced, such as displaced by elastic deformation, by the cutting blade with respect to a position of the supporting section prior to cutting, wherein during moving of the cutting blade, the cutting blade is arranged for displacing the supporting section subsequent to the cutting blade abutting the receiving section, wherein the cutting blade and the element are arranged for being continuously in contact with each other from a point of contact is made between the cutting blade and the receiving section prior to cutting, and at least until a point in time during cutting.

    Abstract: There is presented a cutting apparatus (100) for cutting a food object (120, 124), said apparatus comprising at least one circular blade (102) being rotatable around a first axis (103) through a centre of the circular blade, and wherein the circular blade (102) is rotatable around a second axis (107), wherein the second axis is parallel and non-coaxial with respect to the first axis, and said apparatus further comprising a measurement device (110) for determining a position of at least a part of the surface of the food object (120, 124) to be cut, such as a height profiler arranged for determining a height profile of the food object, and a processor arranged for controlling an angular speed of the circular blade (102) around the second axis (107) based on the position of at least a part of the surface of the food object to be cut, such as the height profile.
