Description
The Vemag FM250 Forming Machine is the most flexible solution for high-speed forming of gourmet hamburger patties with a "homemade" look. Unlike conventional patty forming machines that use high-pressure to compress meat into flat, rubbery "pucks", the FM250 uses a gentle, low-pressure system to form patties that look homemade and have a tender bite that no other machine can produce. Meat fibers are not crushed or destroyed on the FM250 – instead they retain their natural alignment so that the finished patty has the superior bite, texture and eating quality of a hand-made product. Connected to a Vemag HP-E filler with an in-line grinder, the FM250 provides high output and exact weight portions. An easy-to-change forming nozzle allows quick product changeovers. The system is available with an interleaver and/or stacker, as well as a high-speed shuttle to load freezer and oven belts. A Vemag Process Check check weigher can also be added inline to automatically monitor individual patty weights and adjust the filler – ensuring uniform weights and reduced giveaway
