FRESH
Challenges
- Fresh poultry is sticky like few other products and renowned for its ability to adhere to most surfaces, forming blockages and generally making life difficult
- Hygiene is of extraordinary importance in the fresh poultry industry
Solution
Bilwinco Revolution Series multihead weighers are the only weighers that excel with sticky products such as fresh or marinated chicken meat. Due to the variable and self-adjusting Linear Drive vibrator system the product flow is both homogeneous and very gentle towards the product, meaning even fragile cuts are processed to the highest quality standards. Our product tray filling tools are custom built for the job at hand – this translates directly into industry-leading coherence between nominal and actual gross output capacity. Direct weighing and automatic continuous taring ensures homogeneous output weight all through the production cycle. And with our superior cleanability the product shelf life is never compromised by the packaging line!
Fresh poultry must be packed automatically in a clean environment in order to maintain quality and shelf life
FROZEN
Challenges
- Frozen poultry packaging lines must have cold buffering capacity to deal with bottleneck situations further down the line
- Most lines pack a large variety of portion sizes, in many different receptacles. The packaging solutions must be flexible, with short changeover times, to accomodate this
Solution
Our frozen chicken meat packing solutions based on the Revolution Series multihead weighers are just that; i ering capacity and optional reject back-feed line. We can weigh and pack any portion sizes up to 25kgs simultaneously, and our automatic continuous taring ensures very low reject rates at the check weigher, to the benefit of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)
The exclusive Bilwinco solution ensures that the freezer flow needs never be interrupted even when there is a flow stop further down the line. The excess product may be re-introduced into the weighing line as soon as the flow is reestablished
VALUE ADDED
Challenges
- Most value-added chicken foods require very careful handling in the weighing/packing process to avoid separating crumbing from meat.
Solution
Our Revolution Series multihead weighers are designed for just that, with the revolutionary new feeder tray vibrators being able to shift any product at the highest possible rate with minimum abrasion. The output quality is higher, and the product looks more attractive in any packing solution.
The Bilwinco distribution tools feature precisely calculated dropping heights and -angles, ensuring careful processing of fragile products
