animal feed, baked goods and more. The
machine, with high-speed mold plate drive,
offers increased throughput, precise weight
control, simple product changeovers and
low operating costs. Overall, the NovaMax
series is known for its solid construction
and exceptional reliability. The machines
are suitable for processors of all sizes. They
help to increase profits and productivity by
guaranteeing accurate fills with consistent
weights. The Formax VerTex 600 former with
rotary drum for high capacity processing lines
presented at Anuga FoodTec also impresses
with its high throughput and consistent
portioning. The machine has a servo driven
dual lobe pump which can be used in a
variety of applications and is characterized by
its low-maintenance and easy to clean design.
DMC: Fast, even defrosting, higher yields
The Lutetia brand from the DMC (Defrosting,
Marinating, Cooking) business unit is one
of the world’s leading names in defrosting,
marinating, and cooking technologies. The
innovative systems work with a patented
process and impress with unrivalled precision
and maximum flexibility. Trade visitors will
experience the Lutetia Tumbler T40 with a
capacity of up to 1,200 kg for defrosting fresh
meat products, e.g. chicken breast, beef
or any pork
pieces. The
Formax NovaMax 400
with high-speed mold plate drive,
offers increased throughput,
precise weight control, simple product
changeovers and low operating costs
patented Lutetia steam-vacuum process saves
time and improves yield. The gradual lowpressure
injection of steam under vacuum,
speeds up the thawing process without the risk
of cooking the product surface. Frozen blocks
are gradually separated and reach uniform
temperatures through tumbler rotation.
Slicing: Modular press-to-slice- complete
line for automated pressing and slicing
A complete modular system simplifies the
automated processing of bacon and other
natural shaped meat for users. With its small
footprint, it ensures even greater efficiency in
the press-to-slice process and helps meatprocessing
companies to increase their yields.
The turnkey line presented at Anuga FoodTec
consists of various perfectly harmonized
high-performance modules: In addition to
the Hoegger Xpress form press and the new
PTS (Press-to-Slice) module with scan and
positioning function for multiple-lane slicing,
the central element of the system is the new
Formax SX550 slicer. It has an extra wide
slicing throat of 550 mm, enabling several
products to be sliced simultaneously and
achieving a high slicing capacity.
Separation: High performance and
high-quality results
The STS belt separator range with a capacity
of up to 5000 kg/h works with soft tissue
separation, a technology that produces
particularly high-quality results and achieves
a high yield when separating bone fragments,
tendons, cartilage, and other source material.
The flexible pressing belt of the STS pulls the
product through while pressing against a
perforated drum. Adjustable
mechanical pressure
causes the soft parts to
pass through the holes in
the drum, while the hard
components remain on
the outside of the drum.
This technology is also ideal
for products such as potatoes,
fruit, or vegetables, e.g. for
ready meals, but it is also for
depackaging defective or
preempted food
