NuTEC Manufacturing forming machine is a completely hydraulic multi-outlet patty machine. Processors can portion beef, pork, poultry, fish, veal, lamb, cheese and even vegetables. The all-hydraulic, microprocessor controlled, multi-outlet forming machine is easy to maneuver plant wide. It is built tough without the cumbersome weight and size of similar machines. Reliable and efficient, the NuTEC Manufacturing 745 combines accurate weight control and quick changeovers with mobility. Featuring a 22 horsepower power system and a variable speed of 15 to 65 strokes per minute, the NuTEC Manufacturing 745 vane pump feed system uses a rotating spiral to gently move product to the rotor, eliminating overworking, bridging and backflow. With a hopper capacity of 400 lbs, the vane pump feeds directly to the mold plate cavity and can portion up to 11,700 patties per hour. Mold plates are 16 inches with a plate thickness up to 1 1/4 inch and can be changed quickly and simply in less than 5 minutes.The NuTEC Manufacturing 745 can be sanitized minutes after production is completed. Its portable design allows the machine to be transported easily to a wash-down area. Intelligent engineering enables larger parts to stay on the machine and easily swing out of the way for speedy clean-up.
