Poultry marination injector

Boost your poultry flavor profiles with precise marination, ensuring every piece, from whole birds to nuggets, achieves optimal taste and tenderness through advanced injection technology.

Injects and Marinates Poultry Products

The IMAX 600P/900P from Schröder represents cutting-edge solutions in poultry injection and marination processes. Designed for poultry, meat, and seafood applications, this equipment excels in marinating a variety of chicken products including nuggets, tenders, and drumsticks with precision. Each injection cycle utilizes a high-efficiency needle manifold, paired with pneumatic retraction for individual needle control, ensuring consistent and even brine distribution across both bone-in and boneless products.

Capable of operating in continuous, automated environments, the IMAX 600P/900P integrates seamlessly into existing processing lines, offering reliable performance and high throughput. For example, the IMAX 600P features a belt width of 620mm and houses 343 needles, operating between 15 to 45 strokes per minute. The IMAX 900P expands capacity with a 920mm belt width and 511 needles, maintaining similar operational speeds.

Energy efficiency is another standout attribute, with a variable-speed pump supporting optimal pressure control and reduced energy consumption. Maintenance is simplified via easy needle removal and external brine path accessibility for reduced downtime and enhanced food safety. The inclusion of a four-stage filtration system ensures clog-free operation, optimizing yield and quality consistency.

Offering configurability and engineering support, these injectors are adaptable to your specific marination and processing needs, aligning with stringent food safety standards while enhancing your product line’s versatility and capacity.
