V for Vacuum
GEA CutMaster V
The versatile GEA CutMaster V Gen 3, cutting machine features a vacuum-sealed bowl which helps eliminate air from food emulsions during food processing. This feature contributes to improved yield, more dense, visually appealing emulsions and longer product shelf life.
Bowl cutting under vacuum for dense, appealing emulsions
This compact workhorse features a TopCut VSH (versatile, safe, hygienic) knife head, which cuts, mixes and emulsifies products under vacuum. Processing under vacuum helps stimulate protein extraction, reduce jelly deposits, boost yield and increase shelf life. Eliminating air from the process can also promote better water binding capabilities and result in a more dense emulsion with improved color and flavor. The volume of the mass increases under vacuum, as a consequence even the smallest particles would get chopped to achieve a high degree of consistency and particle fineness.
Preparation of fine emulsion mix
Main applications
The GEA CutMaster V is perfect for a wide range of product applications, including course, to very fine sausage, fish, poultry, pork, beef, vegan, vegetarian and meat-replacement products, processed cheese, sauces and a variety of basic products used in the food processing industry.

Automation solutions to perform to the absolute best
Optimum operation of even the best bowl cutter is only possible, if the software systems are of equal quality. Digitalization helps you to raise the bar and constantly improve. GEA’s intuitive control system CutControl Pro Touch allows you to automate the operational cutting processes by recording for every single product. With the External Recipe Editor you can create and edit recipes on the machine and on an external PC as well. And to further analyze and improve production GEA offers the on-premise process data monitoring system GEA Process Manager.
Alternatively, the cloud-based InsightPartner continuously monitors machine condition and performance, delivering valuable insights based on real data. This comprehensive overview of the operation of the equipment allows maintenance managers to easily track key performance indicators that are critical to the business success as well as optimize uptime and planned maintenance.
