2.3mm Meat Slicing Machines for a Premium Meat Company in Spain
Client
A Spain-based meat processing company specialized in premium meat products.
Background
In Spain, the popular gourmet food market means higher standards for the thickness of meat slices.
Client’s needs
Slicing machines that can produce exactly 2.3mm thick slices and is CE compliant and hygienically designed for easy cleaning.
Results
The client was impressed with the precision and quick-removal design of the slicing machines and instantly signed a purchase agreement for multiple smart slicing machines.
Challenges
- Technical difficulties for exactly 2.3 mm slices: Traditional slicing machines produce slices with inevitable inconsistence in thickness due to gear backlash. Too-thin slices will be brittle while too-thick slices will result in the loss of the texture achieved by cooking through in seconds, and thus affect the reception from fancy restaurants.
- Sticking & wrinkling: Thin slices often result in sticking between and wrinkling of slices. Fixing afterwards is inefficient and causes the slices to lose their visual appeal.
- Stringent hygiene standards: In European countries, the hygiene standards for meat processing are extremely high. Traditional slicing machines consist of complex chain systems and lubrication oils inside, which are difficult to clean and easily cause microbial growth.
Solutions
- Three independent direct-drive motors and SIEMENS variable frequency drive speed control ensure 2.3mm slices. Our slicing machines discard the complex chain system and utilize three independent motors to respectively control upper belt, lower belt and cutting wires, which ensures stable power output and synchronization. The built-in Siemens variable frequency drive supports stepless speed control, smart overcurrent and voltage fluctuation protection, extending machine service life by up to 30%.
- Grade 304 stainless steel multi-wire cutting system and integrated flattening function Multi-wire cutting system achieves different thicknesses by simply replacing wires. The meat slices maintain their shape. The slicing machine also has flattening function, which helps achieve uniform slices when cutting multiple slices simultaneously and increase production yield.
- Industrial-grade cast housing and chainless quick-removal design
The motor drive belt system is employed to replace gears and chains,which reduces friction and wear, therefore making the interior cleaner.
The belts can be easily removed and replaced, which makes easier cleaning. The industrial grade cast housing can absorb vibration and is made of 0.8mm stainless steel sheets, which retain their form under high pressure. Every component is CE certified.
