All about flake ice machines, derinding, skinning, fresh meat portioning

The standard solution for butcheries derinding exclusively round meat pieces, e. g. specialized ham producers. Since April 2000 the German Trade Association (Berufsgenossenschaft) stipulates in its regulation, VGB 19, that for security reasons no flat meat pieces must be processed with open machines. Therefore, most of the small butcheries use safe conveyorized derinders.

For varying quantities MAJA’s programme comprises, of course, conveyorized derinders in order to enable processing of flat pieces without risk for the operator and to fulfill the security requirements.  These machines represent the ideal solution for small-sized and medium-sized companies due to the good price-performance ratio and to their universal use.

In many small butcheries the skinning technology has made its arrival long ago because high-quality pieces can thus be refined under value added consideration. With automatical skinning, membranes and tendons, surrounding the meat pieces, are taken off without cutting into the valuable lean meat that would loose its juice. Thus fresh meat gets an appetizing, modern aspect for sale. The remaining meat is perfectly prepared for further processing (e. g. production of boiled ham). For every product quantity MAJA offers specially designed skinning machines but also combined conveyorized machines for derinding and skinning. 

Cutlets, steaks, shredded meat, gyros plates from pork neck cut in even slice thickness, especially during the barbecue season, for cutting neck steaks, an indispensable machine also in specialized butcheries for cutting large quantities. With the ESB SH the workload is enormously eased. The machine can be operated by unskilled workers. The MAJA cutting machines with round knives of the ESB SH series offer an appropriate solution being also worthwhile for smaller businesses and paying off in a very short time.

When producing sausage for heating in simmering water as well as pickle no producer of meat products can do without flake ice. MAJA flake ice machines, type SA, deliver any time, easily and at the touch of a button exactly the ice quality that is mixing ideally with the sausage meat during the cutter process and is keeping the temperature at the desired minimum. An additional advantage of flake ice: Offer flake ice for the party service for cooling and presenting effectfully beverages, salads, buffets… Businesses wanting to be on the safe side with hygiene, can have their MAJA ice machine equipped with different hygiene options, e. g. with the patented evaporator self cleaning system!
