Automated sausage filling and portioning line
Boost your production efficiency with a versatile solution that seamlessly handles the filling, portioning, and linking of varied sausage products, ensuring precise and high-speed operation for complex processing requirements.
The PVLSH 229 Plus AL system from Handtmann revolutionizes sausage production with its advanced filling, portioning, linking, and cutting capabilities. This modular line excels in processing both natural and artificial casings with speeds up to 2,000 portions per minute, thanks to its state-of-the-art EtherCAT technology and dual linking nozzles that decrease casing change times to under two seconds. Ideal for sausage manufacturers and mixed production facilities, it efficiently handles diverse end-products from cooked and fresh sausages to vegan options and ready-to-eat meals.
The system seamlessly integrates into high-speed continuous operations, offering precise portioning with gentle handling, thanks to its parallel voider. Its flexible configuration suits multiple applications across industries such as meat processing, vegetarian foods, and dairy products. Additionally, the PVLSH 229 Plus AL features an optional hanging unit equipped with Handtmann smoke stick scales for reduced giveaway and increased output.
Engineered with easy operation and minimal setup times, it also supports a variety of casing types and sizes. The system is built to accommodate high throughput while maintaining energy efficiency and can be customized with additional equipment like casing spooling and inline grinding systems to meet specific production demands.
