The aim of this work was to evaluate the process performance of the newly patented automatic cutting machine (aCM) in comparison with a popular semi-manual cutting machine (smCM), which was considered as a benchmark, because it can be easily assembled by farmers from common food slicers. In the present work, two experimental theses were compared: mulberry leaf strips obtained with the . . .
