Automated system for hanging, tying, and packaging sausages

Increase throughput and efficiency in sausage production with a high-speed system that seamlessly integrates hanging, tying, and packaging, enhancing operational productivity and reducing labor costs.

The TTStick Automated Hang, Tie, and Packaging System from TIPPER TIE sets a new standard in sausage and pet food processing by providing a streamlined solution for hanging, tying, and packaging. Its robust servo motor-driven mechanism ensures precise suspension across various casing types and calibers, making it suitable for a wide array of end products including pepperoni sticks, salami logs, vegan chorizo, and pet food nuggets. The system achieves up to 100 loops per minute, maintaining production continuity with minimal disruption due to its on-the-fly casing changes. With an intuitive touch screen-controlled PLC system, it facilitates easy program recall and operational adjustments. The stainless-steel construction not only enhances hygienic cleaning and maintenance but also reduces operational downtime through its integrated maintenance prompts. Capable of high-speed, continuous operation, the TTStick fits seamlessly into existing lines, supporting high-capacity production needs while effectively lowering labor costs.
