Injection tenderizer for meat, poultry, and fish

Optimize your meat, poultry, and fish processing with a versatile injector-tenderizer that ensures uniform brine distribution and tenderization while reducing operational downtime through smart automation and remote management.

The Fomaco M3 from Fomaco is an innovative injector-tenderizer designed for efficient meat, poultry, and fish processing. It stands out with its modular design that allows complete customization through interchangeable needle and tenderizer heads. Its working principle involves precise control of needle head movement, ensuring uniform brine and marinade distribution. Engineered for rigorous applications, it handles products such as cured ham, marinated chicken breasts, and smoked salmon with ease. Capable of operating continuously and automatically, the M3 integrates seamlessly with existing production lines via state-of-the-art software featuring remote management for troubleshooting and updates. Energy efficiency is enhanced through optimized pump systems that maintain consistent pressure and flow, reducing operational costs. Constructed with stainless steel for corrosion resistance, it meets stringent hygiene standards. Cleaning is streamlined with an automatic cleaning program and self-draining mechanism, minimizing downtime. Customizable configurations offer flexibility to match diverse production demands, supported by expert engineering for tailoring solutions to specific processing needs.
