Abstract
An improved sizing control technique utilizes a pressure ring bearing slidably on the outer periphery of a food casing being stuffed, the casing being provided with a convoluting element working conjunctively with a sizing disc inside the casing to provide a wider than previously attainable range of holdback force on the casing, including a maximum holdback force whereat the casing is turned back on its normal direction of progression.
