The present disclosure relates to a suspension unit and a method for taking up and transporting sausage loops with a guide rail and hooks circulating around the guide rail, where the guide rail has an elongate front side and an oppositely disposed rear side. The guide rail is inclined relative to a horizontal plane such that the front side is at a higher level than the rear side.

Suspension unit with inclined guide rail

A closure module and a method for closing and/or separating filled sausage casings connected via a sausage neck, comprising two stamps movable relative to and towards each other and arranged such that a sausage neck can be placed therebetween, the stamps being capable of clamping the sausage neck in a closed condition, and further comprising a first and a second electrode, through which, in a closed condition of the stamps, a current can flow from the first electrode into the sausage neck and via the sausage neck into the second electrode.

Closure module and method for closing and/or separating filled sausage casings connected via a sausage neck

A closure module and a method for closing and/or separating filled sausage casings connected via a sausage neck, comprising, in at least one example, a first electrode and a second electrode located opposite the first one, the electrodes being arranged such that a sausage neck can be placed therebetween and being adapted to be moved relative to each other and towards the sausage neck to such an extent that a current can flow from the first electrode into the sausage neck and via the sausage neck into the second electrode.

A filling machine includes a suspension device, and is operable to suspend sausages, in particular sausage chains, with a plurality of circulating suspension hooks. The suspension device includes an integrated weighing unit for weighing at least one sausage or at least one sausage chain.

Weighing system

The present disclosure relates to a hanging device, a smoke bar top module as well as a method for extracting a sausage group that hangs on multiple hanging hooks of a hanging device. The hanging hooks have a device for guiding a smoke bar or a smoke bar top module.

Hanging device and method for extraction of a sausage group

The present disclosure relates to a method and a device for filling of sausage sleeves with pasty material through a filling tube, wherein the pasty material is fed in the filling tube through an opening on its rear end in the axial direction. At the end of the filling process, the filling tube is moved back out of its filling position in the axial direction onto an axially arranged closing element, wherein the opening is closed.

Method and device for filling of sausage sleeves

A filling machine for sausages, having a filling tube and a unit for removing a filling material plait exiting the filling tube end during a filling process interruption, where the removing unit includes a separator element by means of which the filling material plait can be removed when a relative movement is executed between the filling tube end and the separator element, the separator element including at least one filling material adhesion surface to which filling material is transferable and adherable, and the adhesion surface has associated therewith a cleaning device.

Filling machine

A stuffing tube centering device for concentric alignment of the stuffing tube to a casing stick and a corresponding method, and where two oppositely disposed centering members movable towards each other between which the stuffing tube can be held and centered.

Stuffing tube centering device and method for centering a stuffing tube

A suspension apparatus and a method for suspending sausages, in particular sausage chains, including a plurality of circulating suspension hooks, where the suspension apparatus is configured such that it is able to accommodate a plurality of groups of sausages, the respective sausages being suspended from n suspension hooks. The apparatus includes at least one variable indicator capable of indicating a group end and/or a group beginning.
