Roller tenderizer for cooked ham production

In the production of high-quality cooked ham, ensuring optimum protein bonding is crucial for effective brine absorption and enhanced muscle binding during cooking.

Optimize brine absorption and increase yields

The JBT Schröder MacMax 500 is a roller tenderizer designed to enhance the production of cooked ham by improving protein activation. The blade rollers cut the surface of the meat, increasing the release of protein and improving the absorption of brine. This process reduces muscle contraction during cooking, leading to better slice cohesion and increased yields. The MacMax 500 is equipped with adjustable blade rollers to cater to various product thicknesses and can handle large tendons, making it suitable for poultry products as well. With a conveyor width of approximately 500 mm and optional blade roller configurations, this tenderizer is designed to meet the demands of modern meat and poultry processing. By integrating this tenderizer, producers can achieve enhanced brine intake and reduced massaging time, ultimately leading to increased output and quality.

Benefits

  • Improved protein bonding for better brine absorption
  • Reduction in massaging time
  • Increased slice cohesion
  • Enhanced yields
  • Suitable for both meat and poultry products
