Burgers have better texture, shrink less, cook more evenly and taste homemade. Designed for today’s ground beef products. Tender-Form® creates small columns of products that are stacked vertically. The cavity is filled during the dwell period of the mold plate. Advantages of this type of fill system include, more even cooking, consistent internal temperatures, better overall shapes, and an improved tender texture. Used mainly on ground Beef and Pork products.
Fill Systems & Tooling
Tender-Form®
Port-Fill®
Creates whole muscle portions with precise weight control and excellent texture. Designed to improve the whole muscle texture of a product. The Port-Fill® method helps to separate or sort the large muscle filet and directs the product to a filling station. The additional use of a pneumatic shear bar device assists in cutting tough tendons from the trailing rear edge of the formed products. This method allows for larger single muscle portions to fill the mold plate cavity. Used mostly with Poultry and Fish.
Verti-Form®
Creates great whole muscle steaks, ribs, pork chops and more without the high unit costs. Designed for whole muscle meat or large chunk products. Larger muscle chunks are forced under pressure into the cavity during the dwell period of the mold plate. The mold plate acts as a shear, cutting the product muscle as it travels forward. Commonly used in forming of Poultry, Fish, Cheese, Fruit or Vegetable products.
