Stuffing hopper with stainless positive displacement pump

Enhance your high-volume processing line with a seamless integration solution designed to maintain precise product weight and eliminate contamination risk in food production.

Integrates and Transfers Product Efficiently

The Stuffing Hopper with Stainless Steel PD Pump by Cozzini integrates seamlessly into high-volume food processing lines, addressing the need for precise product weight management and contamination reduction. Each custom-designed hopper utilizes an independent hydraulically driven, stainless steel positive displacement pump to maintain steady line pressures of 70-80 psi (4.8-5.5 bars), eliminating the need for bypass valves. Ideal for producing ground beef, sausages, and canned pet food, it effectively supports various operations, from stuffing to discharge. It operates continuously with modular chamber options, enhancing line efficiency in demanding environments. USDA accepted and CE approved, the equipment aligns with AMI sanitary design principles for safe food handling. Easy maintenance is ensured with quick-release couplings and accessible rotors, facilitating thorough sanitation. With customizable configurations and numerous options, Cozzini’s solution adapts to diverse processing needs within meat, poultry, dairy, and seafood industries.
