A patent application (Publication Number: US20240000100A1) describes a method for cutting chewing gum efficiently. The method involves providing a chewing gum sheet to at least one cutting device, cutting the sheet using the cutting device, and then separating the chewing gum from the cutting device by directing compressed air onto it. The cutting device can have non-stick properties and may include upper and lower cutting devices for a more precise cut. The method also includes variations such as using rollers with ring or lateral knives, reciprocating cutting devices, and cooling the gum before or after cutting.
Furthermore, the patent application also includes a system for cutting chewing gum, which consists of a conveyor to provide the gum sheet to the cutting device, the cutting device itself, and a compressed air delivery system to aid in separating the gum from the cutting device. The method and system described in the patent application aim to streamline the process of cutting chewing gum, ensuring clean cuts and efficient separation of the gum from the cutting device. These innovations could potentially improve the manufacturing process of chewing gum products, leading to increased productivity and quality in the industry.
