Inline marinating and coating for meat and poultry
In meat and poultry processing, maintaining consistent quality and reducing manual handling can be challenging. Ensuring uniform distribution of marinades and coatings while minimizing product damage and enhancing traceability are critical for efficient operations.
Uniform marinating and coating with controlled process
The ValueDrum by Marel is an inline marinating and coating solution designed to improve the quality and consistency of fresh meat and poultry products. Unlike traditional batch tumblers, the ValueDrum operates continuously, automatically feeding, marinating, and coating products in smaller batches. This method reduces handling and ensures even distribution of marinades and coatings. The system’s modular setup allows for future expansion by adding segments to meet desired capacity and process times. It includes dedicated massage components for achieving optimal marinade penetration and uniform product treatment, leading to a high-quality end product. Reliable tracking and tracing are also enhanced through the controlled process, making the ValueDrum suitable for large-scale operations focused on efficiency and product quality.
