A cutter-separator. Product is fluidized under pressure, forced through the bore of a spring and thence through the gaps between the coils of the spring while in its extended condition. When the spring returns to its compressed, or relaxed, condition the product which has been forced through the coils is reduced in size (i.e., cut, partially cut, or mashed, as desired) by the spring. Contaminants which are too large to pass between the coils are ultimately carried to the end of the spring, downstream from the product flow, where they are discharged.
