Grinder delivers<br />
consistent mince<br />
As well as grinders, Laska also manufactures a range of other processing kit<br />
Multivac UK has<br />
installed a Laska<br />
super grinder into the<br />
Addo Food Group enabling<br />
the business to produce a<br />
consistent, high-quality<br />
minced meat in different<br />
sizes for its chilled savoury<br />
products. It utilises both fresh<br />
and frozen types of meat.<br />
The company produces<br />
sausage rolls, pork pies,<br />
hot pies, savoury eggs,<br />
slices, and quiche across six<br />
manufacturing sites throughout<br />
the UK and required a new<br />
machine to mince frozen and<br />
fresh meats to a high quality.<br />
The machine needed to<br />
ensure product consistency,<br />
organoleptic delivery and<br />
flexibility of the meats.<br />
When Processing Product<br />
Specialist at Multivac UK Liam<br />
Smith visited the Spalding<br />
Bakery manufacturing site,<br />
he discovered the number one<br />
consideration for the machine<br />
was enhancing product<br />
quality. The machine selected<br />
was therefore the Laska WWB<br />
200 super grinder.<br />
This grinder has a hopper<br />
size of 550 litres and a 200mm<br />
grinding hole plate diameter.<br />
The unit offered the Addo<br />
Food Group the opportunity<br />
to increase the quality of the<br />
product and also the ability to<br />
grind meat down to 3mm from<br />
a frozen block at -25deg C in<br />
one process.<br />
double seal system<br />
Another key feature of the unit<br />
is the design of the double<br />
sealing system, which enables<br />
separation of product from<br />
mechanical parts, even in<br />
the event of excessive wear<br />
or mechanical failure.<br />
This results in reduced risk<br />
of contamination.<br />
The quality within the<br />
Laska system is also vastly<br />
improved due to the angular<br />
feed and working system, says<br />
Multivac. The angular design<br />
ensures only the optimum<br />
amount is presented to the<br />
grind plates at any time to<br />
ensure maximum quality<br />
and minimum product stress<br />
and heat rise. These features<br />
were key to the success of<br />
the trial and ultimately,<br />
the machine purchase for<br />
Addo Food Group.<br />
