The Watermelon Wedger is equipped with a three-position turntable. The turntable moves the watermelon into the next position during processing. The watermelon is manually placed on the first position. After turning to the second position the melon will be cut into two, four, six or eight equal pieces. After the cutting process, the table turns to the third and last position. Here the melon is gently tilted out of the machine and the wedges slide carefully onto a stainless steel gutter. All operations are performed simultaneously.

 

The machine operator is protected by a safety light curtain so that the blade cannot be approached during processing. When the light detects an object or a hand, for example, the machine will stop immediately. The rear of the machine is equipped with two security doors that provide maximum access for maintenance and cleaning.
