Brine injection system for cooked ham products
In the production of cooked ham products such as pork, turkey, and chicken ham, achieving consistent brine distribution and retention is crucial for quality. Traditional methods often result in bent needles, uneven brine distribution, and inconsistent product quality, affecting both yield and taste.
Ensure precise and uniform brine injection
The GEA MultiJector 3-4mm is a brine injection system specifically designed for cooked ham products. Featuring 3-4mm OptiFlex needles, this system ensures vertical brine distribution throughout the product. The unique needle design prevents bending or breaking, enhancing durability and maintaining consistent quality. The modular design allows for easy cleaning and quick changeover with exchangeable manifold needle cassettes. The GEA MultiJector integrates with upstream and downstream operations including defrosting, brine chilling, tenderizing, and tumbling, ensuring all-round process control. Produced by GEA, the system supports a complete, automated brine injection process, controlling vital parameters such as product and injection height, and achieving higher yields with improved product quality.
