Frozen meat grinder for industrial food processing

Efficiently process frozen meat into uniform, high-quality products with this advanced solution, designed to streamline production by integrating continuous grinding and separation processes.

Grinds and Prepares Frozen Meat for Processing

The PrimeGrind 400 Frozen Meat Grinder from Cozzini is engineered to address the stringent demands of food and protein processors. It features a robust, heavy-duty transmission powered by your choice of a 125 hp (90 kW) or 150 hp (110 kW) motor. Known for its innovative use of 400 mm (16″) MultiCut plates, this grinder supports both single and double plate/knife configurations, facilitating precision grinding through a sequence of pre-cutter, cut knife, primary holeplate, and finish holeplate stages.

Ideal for processing frozen meat, fish, and plant-based proteins, the machine outputs products like beef, pork sausage, and plant-based patties with uniform consistency. Its unique hopper barrel and auger design ensure continuous feed, while the optional bone/gristle elimination system enhances product purity. Cozzini’s stainless steel construction adheres to AMI sanitary equipment principles and provides easy cleaning and durability, with the USDA acceptance and CE approval reinforcing its compliance and safety.

A distinguishing feature is the inclusion of a main bearing that absorbs backpressure, safeguarding the transmission and extending its lifespan. The integrated swing-away safety cover and crane for feedscrew removal simplify maintenance. For enhanced loading flexibility, custom-fitted hopper extensions and safety guarding are available to align with your specific operational requirements.
