1. Meat trimmings are dumped into the Inclined Screw Loader hopper.
2a. The Inclined Screw Loader meters the meat trimmings onto an Inclined Belt Conveyor for metal detection and inspection.
2b. A Pallet Lift raises frozen/tempered blocks of meat to the table. A worker unwraps and transfers the blocks onto the Inclined Belt Conveyor for metal detection .
3. As the raw material travels up the conveyor, the metal detector checks for metal contaminants.
4. Fresh trimmings or frozen/tempered blocks are fed into a Cozzini Grinder. The belt conveyor feeds the coarse grinder capable of breaking up and grinding fresh or frozen/tempered material. |
5. The coarse ground meat discharges into an Inclined Screw Conveyor that fills a CO2 chilled Mixer/Blender
6. The meat is mixed and chilled in the CO2 Mixer/Blender. The mixed ground meat then discharges into an Inclined Screw Loader.
7. The Inclined Screw Loader feeds the batch of mixed, coarse-ground meat to another Cozzini Grinder.
8. The meat passes through the Grinder for a final grind. It directly feeds the ground meat to the Giraffe style Vertical Screw Conveyor.
9. The Giraffe Vertical Screw Conveyor feeds the fine-ground meat to patty formers, meatball formers, extruders, etc.
