A method and a device for packaging fresh products, in particular meat and sausage products, where the fresh product is introduced into a container simultaneously with an absorbent base.

Method and device for packaging fresh products

The present disclosure refers to a filling machine and to a method for filling a foodstuff which comprises at least two components to be mixed, particularly for sausage production. The foodstuff may be filled into a filling hopper of the filling machine and thoroughly mixed with a mixing cam. The mixing cam may be driven via its own drive at different speeds according to a specific speed profile while the foodstuff is conveyed out of the lower portion of the filling hopper via a conveying mechanism and is filled via a filling unit.

Method and filling machine for filling a foodstuff

The present disclosure relates to a filling machine and a method for filling up pasty or liquid masses, for example for sausage production, with a feed pump, in particular a vane pump, for conveying the pasty or liquid masses, a vacuum pump for generating a vacuum in the feed pump, in particular the vane cells of the vane pump, wherein the feed pump may be connected with the vacuum pump via a first channel and via an integrated collecting vessel for entrained ingredients. According to the present disclosure, a supply means is provided via which the feed pump may be optionally additionally connected with an external collecting vessel via the first channel. The operator may thus choose between two different operating modes with and without an external collecting vessel.

Filling machine and method for filling up liquid or pasty masses with external collecting vessel

The present disclosure relates to a filling machine and a method for filling of filling medium, in particular for the production of sausages with a hopper for accommodating filling medium, a conveyer for supplying the filling medium and a filling element, in particular a filling tube, as well as a device for measuring the filling level in the hopper. The device for measuring the filling level comprises a radar sensor.

Filling machine and method for the filling level measurement, in particular for the sausage production

A filling machine and a method for filling a pasty mass, in particular for the production of sausages, with a delivery pump for conveying the pasty mass with a first drive, and a dosing pump that is coupled to an outlet of the delivery pump and a transmission train via which the dosing pump is coupled to a second drive integrated into the filling machine housing.

Filling machine and method for filling a pasty mass, in particular for the production of sausages

The present disclosure relates to a method and a filling machine for filling foodstuffs comprising a predetermined proportion of pieces of filling in a liquid. The pieces of filling are charged into a hopper and liquid is during the filling process added into the lower region of the hopper.

Filling foodstuffs having a solid and a liquid component

A filling machine and a method for intermediate cleaning of a filling machine, where the filling machine comprises a hopper for filling in a pasty substance, a conveying mechanism for conveying the pasty substance in the direction toward an outlet opening. The filling machine comprises at least one spraying device above or within the hopper for distributing the cleaning medium onto the hopper inner wall.

Filling machine and method for intermediate cleaning of a filling machine

The present disclosure relates to a method for aligning a filling machine and a respective filling machine. In the method, the height and/or the inclination of the filling machine is first measured according to an actual state. The measured values are transmitted to a calculation unit. The actual state of the height and/or the inclination is compared with a target state of the height and/or the inclination. The height and/or the inclination of the filling machine are then adjusted on the basis of the comparison.

Method and device for simplified alignment of a filling machine for sausage production

The invention relates to a filling machine for producing sausages and a method for monitoring the state of fouling of a collection container and/or a channel which is in communication with the collection container of such a filling machine, where the filling machine comprises a vane cell pump for delivering pasty mass, a vacuum pump for generating negative pressure of the vane cell pump, where the vane cell pump is via the collection container for the pasty mass that is dragged along in communication with the vacuum pump. The filling machine further comprises an inspection opening that is via a channel in communication with the collection container for inspecting the channel and/or the collection container.

Filling machine and method for monitoring the state of fouling in a vacuum system of a filling machine

The invention relates to a filling machine and a method for filling a pasty mass, in particular for the production of sausages, with a vane cell pump for conveying the paste mass, a vacuum pump for generating negative pressure in the vane cell pump, where the housing of the vane cell pump comprises an evacuation opening via which the vacuum pump can evacuate the vane cells. The evacuation opening is formed in the cover of the vane cell pump.

Filling machine and method for filling a pasty mass

A method for adjusting the compression in the vane cell chambers in the compression region of a vane cell pump for conveying pasty substance, in particular sausage meat, and a corresponding vane cell pump, wherein the compression is adjusted by changing the guide of the vane.

Method and device for adjusting the compression in a vane cell pump

A conveyor system for a filling machine and a method of conveying pasty mass with a corresponding conveyor system and a corresponding filling machine, including a housing with a vacuum opening and a vacuum pump as well as a suction line for generating a vacuum in the conveyor system. A valve mechanism and at least one pressure sensor for measuring the pressure in the suction line and/or in the conveyor system are provided. A controller controls the vacuum in the conveyor system or the suction line, respectively, wherein the cross-section of the suction line is adjusted in response to the measured pressure via the valve mechanism.

Vacuum control in a vacuum filler without external air supply

A vane pump for delivering pasty masses, in particular sausage meat, with a pump caseand a rotatably held rotorcomprising vanesheld so as to be radially movable which form delivery cellstogether with the wallof the pump case, with a suction area, a pressure area and a sealing area separating the pressure area from the suction area. For a better sealing between the suction area and the sealing area, in particular in case of high pressures in the pressure area, and for increasing the service life of the vane pump, in the sealing area at least one sealing element is provided for sealing a gap between the rotor and the wall of the pump case.

Vane pump

A method and a device for the closed-loop level control and for the controlled evacuation of paste mass, in particular sausage meat, wherein the vacuum hopper comprises an inlet for feeding paste mass, in particular sausage meat, as well as an outlet for ejecting the paste mast an inlet valve, which is arranged at the inlet, wherein a negative pressure can be produced in the vacuum hopper. In order to influence the degree of evacuation in the inflowing mass, the inlet valve comprises in the open state an inlet gap S for the paste mass, the gap height (h) of which can be controlled to influence the degree of evacuation of the paste mass.

Device and method of closed-loop level control and for the controlled evacuation of paste masses

A device and a method for filling a paste-like substance into a skin, and having a filling tube through which the paste-like substance is pushed into the skin, and a casing brake which is arranged in the area of the ejection end of the filling tube and which presses the skin in the direction of the filling tube. In order to prevent the formation of blisters below the skin, a second casing brake is provided, which, when seen in the direction of ejection, is arranged ahead of the first casing brake and which presses the skin in the direction of the filling tube so that air can be sucked off from below the skin between the first and the second casing brake.
