A rotary dough molding machine (10). The machine has a frame (6), a die roller (4) rotatably mounted to the frame (6), a knife (3) for scraping dough from the die roller (4), the knife (3) extending along the die roller (4), and a driver for moving the knife (3) between a scraping position and an inactive position, with the driver having a first drive (1) acting on the first end (31) of the knife (3) and a second drive (2) acting on the second end (32) of the knife (3). The first drive (1) and the second drive (2) can be actuated independently of each other.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for cutting flatbread. One of the systems includes a lifting platform configured to move in a first direction to remove a flatbread stack from a conveyor along an axis, which conveyor transports the flatbread stack along a longitudinal axis that is substantially perpendicular to the axis; a transport arm configured to a) move in a first direction along the longitudinal axis to remove the flatbread stack from the lifting platform, and b) move in a second direction along the longitudinal axis to place the flatbread stack on a cutting pedestal; and the cutting pedestal configured to receive the flatbread stack from the transport arm and to support the flatbread stack for a subsequent cutting operation.

Rolled food products are produced by cutting a dough sheet to form a roll sheet having a continuous pattern. The pattern is comprised of an asymmetrical repeat unit. The roll sheet is transported in a first direction with a conveyor system, and the roll sheet is rolled in a second direction to form a continuous roll. The second direction is not parallel to the first direction. The continuous roll is cut to form a plurality of rolls. Each of the plurality of rolls is asymmetrical.
