The structural principle of the meatloaf forming machine

A patty forming machine is a type of equipment used to process meat products into a fixed shape. It is made up of several parts, each with a specific functional and structural principle. The structural principle of the patty forming machine will be introduced in detail below

1. Feeding system:

The feeding system of the patty forming machine is mainly composed of a feeding rotor and a feeding screw. The feeding rotor is a disc-shaped device with multiple holes for feeding the pulp into the mold, which is then fed into the mold using a feeding screw.

2. Mould system:

The mould system is the core part of the patty forming machine, which uses the mould to make the batter into the desired shape. The mould system usually consists of two moulds, upper and lower, which are closed to each other to squeeze the pulp into a fixed shape. The shape of the mold can be adjusted and replaced according to the device

3. Compaction system:

The compaction system is used to squeeze the batter into a fixed shape of the patty. It usually consists of a compaction device and a pressure control device. The compaction device provides the right pressure to close the upper and lower molds, so that the pulp is squeezed to form the desired shape. The pressure control device is used to control the force and time of extrusion to ensure the consistent quality of each patty.

4. Transmission system:

The drive system is used to drive the movement of various parts to achieve functions such as feeding, compacting and discharging the meat slurry. The transmission system is usually composed of a motor, a reducer, a chain and a transmission wheel. The motor transmits power to the chain through the reducer, which in turn transmits the power to the individual components, causing them to move at a specified speed and in order.

5. Control system: The control system is used to control the operation and operation of the whole machine. It usually consists of a control panel and an electronic controller. The control panel features buttons, switches, and regulators for starting and stopping the machine, adjusting parameters such as speed and pressure. The electronic controller is responsible for receiving the operation signal and controlling the operation of each part according to the set program and algorithm.

6. Cooling system:

The cooling system is used to cool the patty quickly to solidify the shape and maintain its quality. A cooling system usually consists of a fan and cooling pipes. The fan cools the surface of the patty quickly by blowing cold air, while the cooling duct cools the internal temperature by running water or refrigerant.

The above is the main structural principle of the patty forming machine. The pulp is fed into the mould by means of a feeding system and then pressed

The solid system squeezes it into a fixed shape of the patty, and finally through the cooling system it is quickly cooled and solidified. At the same time, the drive system and control system are responsible for driving and controlling the entire process. Through these structures and principles, the patty is formed

The machine enables efficient, precise and consistent patty production

What are the types of patty forming machines?

Meatloaf forming machines can be divided into several main types according to their working principle and structural characteristics

1. Manual pressing molding machine: This type of molding machine requires the operator to manually put the meatloaf raw materials into the pressing area, and complete the molding process by manually controlling the pressure and pressing time. It is suitable for small-scale production or when there is a need for special needs.

2. Semi-automatic pressing molding machine: Semi-automatic molding machine is usually equipped with a semi-automatic control system, the operator needs to put the raw materials into the molding area, but the pressing process can be completed by mechanical or electric system, which reduces the labor intensity of the operator and improves the production efficiency.

3. Fully automatic pressing molding machine: This type of molding machine is completely operated by computer control system or automatic control system, and the raw material feeding, pressing, and discharging processes can be completed automatically. Fully automated molding machines are typically used in high-volume production environments and are able to achieve high efficiency and consistent product quality.

4. Extrusion molding machine: This type of molding machine squeezes raw materials to pass them through the mold to form the shape of a patty, compared to the traditional pressing molding machine, the extrusion molding machine may be able to process the raw materials faster, suitable for the field that needs high capacity and fast production.

5. Multi-function molding machines: Some molding machines are designed to be multi-functional, capable of handling different kinds or shapes of meatloaf, or combined with other food processing functions, such as processing chicken nuggets, fish cakes, etc.

These types of patty forming machines can improve production efficiency and product quality according to different production needs and production scales, and meet different market needs.
