Designed for large volume production environments,
our Thompson 6400 industrial mixer/grinder is
capable of grinding fresh or frozen meat (1½” pieces
or flaked at -10°C or 14°F) while producing up to
6,000 kilograms (13,227 pounds) per hour (depending
on plate size, product and product temperature). With
a hopper capacity of 610 liters, the production
range is endless.
The Thompson 6400 is equipped with
twin solid stainless steel feedscrews –
one which is variable speed and
rotates slower than the other feedscrew to convey the product from
the hopper into a uniquely designed
channel where the two-speed
grinding feedscrew is located. The
variable-speed transfer feedscrew
enables the operator to adjust the
machine’s product feed rate according to the
application. This results in a constant supply
of material to the grinding feedscrew for
continuous output based on the product (i.e.,
whole muscles, frozen flaked meat, sausage
emulsion or coarse ground product) and
product temperature.
While mixing, the transfer feedscrew operates in reverse,
shifting the product away from the transfer feedscrew
channel, resulting in thoroughly blended batches. This action,
combined with the multi-directional product movement of the
ribbon-style paddle, maximizes particle definition throughout the meat
mixture resulting in a very homogenous blend.
The #66 size (220mm) grinding head delivers high production rates for a
variety of products, including fresh and tempered or flaked frozen meat.
Equipped with reliable independent gear drives, you never have to worry
about down time due to belt or chain failure.
From quality design to tough construction, outstanding performance,
and amazing reliability, that’s Thompson!
