This used sausage divider — sometimes referred to as a frankfurter linker or wiener separator — is a piece of meat processing equipment designed for the automatic, individual separation of cooked and scalded sausages in both natural and collagen casings. SUHNER is a Swiss manufacturer with a long-standing presence in food processing machinery, and the Tender Cut line is purpose-built for high-throughput sausage production environments handling frankfurters, breakfast sausages, hot dogs, and other small-diameter products.
The machine operates on a mechanical knife-bar principle, with multiple individual blades mounted on interchangeable strips. This design ensures each sausage link is cleanly and precisely separated without damaging the casing or the product core, producing a consistent cut that simplifies downstream slicing and packaging. The deliberate minimisation of electronic components is a key design feature, contributing to low maintenance costs, straightforward servicing, and long operational life.
Electrically, the unit runs on 220 V / 50 Hz single-phase supply, draws 6 A, and has a motor output of 0.55 kW. Stroke rate is variable and adjustable between 5 and 30 strokes per minute, allowing the operator to match machine speed to product type and line requirements. Throughput capacity reaches up to 4,000 kg per hour under standard operating conditions.
The machine is fully enclosed in stainless steel with smooth external and internal surfaces, supporting rapid cleaning and hygiene compliance. The knife strips are removable and can be cleaned separately from the main unit. Operation is controlled via a simple start/stop function with continuously variable speed adjustment, minimising operator training time. Overall dimensions are 1,700 mm in length, 900 mm in width, and 1,600 mm in height. The unit is located in Poland and is offered in used condition.
