The Hydra ONE combines advanced hydrocutting technology with a compact, efficient platform designed for potato and vegetable processors. Developed through a partnership between FPS and SFW, the system builds on more than 40 years of hydrocutting expertise originating from Idaho Metal Fabrication (IMF), the pioneer of the original hydrocutting block design.

Using high-pressure water, products are gently aligned and propelled through precision cutting blocks, producing consistent cuts with minimal breakage, reduced waste, and maximum yield. A key advantage is the Automatic Switcher, featuring two vertically stacked cutting blocks that instantly switch without stopping production. This unique design enables continuous operation during maintenance and changeovers, maximizing uptime and productivity.
