Servo press for optimal shaping of bacon and meat loins
In industrial meat processing, achieving uniform and optimal shapes for bacon and meat loins is crucial for ensuring high slice yield and reducing product waste. Traditional methods often lead to inconsistencies and increased operational costs due to maintenance requirements and inefficiencies.
Presses bacon and meat loins with high precision
The Danfotech Type 14S Servo Press, from the Middleby Corporation, is specially designed for pressing bacon and meat loins in a dynamic, 4-directional, 3-dimensional chamber using ShapetecTM press technology. It features automated in/out-feed conveyors and a robust construction for handling frozen products continuously. This press operates at up to 14 cycles per minute, with the largest die chamber in the industry, measuring 41” x 16” x 4.7”. The Type 14S is an all-servo operated system using four individual servos for precise control, and it eliminates the need for water or hydraulics, thus minimizing maintenance. Furthermore, automatic flex adjustments ensure consistent compression based on product thickness, while quick die changes within 5-7 minutes enhance operational efficiency. With 380V-460V power requirements and air pressure at 100 PSI, this press integrates seamlessly into new or existing production lines to feed slicing or cutting operations.
