This machine is designed to clean and de-fat the small intestine of the beef (also known as Beef Rounds). The casing line is composed of a front tray, holding tank and 2 casing groups consisting of 4 rollers of 800mm, two rubber rollers to strip out the contents and two rubber rollers to de-fat the casing.
Processing procedure:
Once the intestine is separated from the viscera the worker places the casing onto the conveyor chain which brings the casing to the first group in which the manure content is removed and the casings are de-fatted for the first time. The manure content is collected in the front pan. Once the casings exit the first group they will fall onto a bar and are left to soak for 5 minutes, the worker than drags the casings towards the second machine where he will manually feed the second machine. The casing will fall back into the large soaking tank. Then he will pass the casings through the second machine once again. Before this he will divert the casing to fall into the turning tank by turning the lever of the sliding pan under the machine.
Once the casings pass through the second group for the second time the casings are collect in the turning tank on a hook. The work then must invert the intestine. After turning the intestine inside out, the operator manually feeds it into the second machine to removal of the slime.
The machine is constructed of AISI 304 stainless steel and is supplied with an electric control panel encased into a stainless steel cabinet with low tension 24 V control push-buttons. The rollers are made of rubber with stainless steel fittings and shafts. The roller system is designed with BUSHINGS with the regulating structure to adjust the rollers only on one side of the machine. This means when the worker regulates the roller on one side the entire roller moves up and down evenly.
