FRESH MEAT CUTTER FOR SLICING, DICING & SHREDDING

MAGURIT Gefrierschneider GmbH

Description

The machine series GALAN at MAGURIT includes all machines designed for continuous cutting of fresh products. Three models are available, depending on the raw materials, the necessary production volumes and the processing temperatures. In general it can be said that all 3 models GALAN 920, 930 and 960, are suitable for cutting raw, cooked, marinated, injected and also crust-fozen products.

GALAN 920 & 930 are also supplied as 3-dimensional cutter. Thus, slices, strips and cubes can be cut with one machine.

The product is placed manually or automatically onto a product infeed-conveyor belt and thus transported towards the cutting area. Continuously working scimitar blades perform the first dimension cut of the required piece size, which results from the speed of the belts in correlation to the rotation speed of the scimitar blades. Conveyor belt and scimitar blades are infinitely speed adjustable, allowing a change of cutting thickness in just a few moments. Due to the knife geometry, the scimitar blades achieve a clean, pulling cut, without squeezing and mechanical stress, as if cut by hand.
In a two-dimensional cut, i.e. when cutting strips or cubes, the product dips into the circular knife set which are mounted at 90° to the sickle blades. Circular knife sets are available from 4mm distance between the knives.
The product is fixed just before the cutting area by a hold-down above the conveyor belt. This hold-down guarantees a battery-friendly cut, since the product can no longer avoid the knives. The hold-down pressure is pneumatically and also infinitely adjustable, and adapts automatically to different product heights with the set pressure.
For optimal hygiene, the machines’ surfaces are sloping and thus allowing easy, quick cleaning.

  • The compact GALAN 920, with 230mm (9 ") x 100mm (4") cutting chamber, is particularly well-suited for processing poultry and fish products since the raw material is i.a. not larger than the max. cutting chamber size is. Therefore, the blades of the GALAN 920 with 2 mm for the scimitar blades and 1 mm for the circular blades cut the raw material particularly gentle.
  • The GALAN 930 is designed for, but not limited to, processing of high volumes of sturdy, stringy or harder products. But also softer and fragile products can be cut with GALAN 930. With a cutting area of 160mm (6 ¼”) x 360mm (14 ¼”) all common muscles can be cut, and the up to 4mm (5/32”) thick scimitar blades and the up to 2mm (5/64”) thick circular blades allow also the processing of very cold, even frozen products. Using different belt, scimitar-blade- and circular-blade-profiles the machine is adapted to our customers production needs.
  • With a cutting width of 610mm (24 ") and a cutting height of 100mm (4"), the GALAN 960 is our largest GALAN model. It has been designed for integration into a continuous processing lines, e.g. in the connection of frying or cooling tunnels. Due to the cutting width, and thus the possible very high capacities that can be achieved, the GALAN 960 is always built with an integrated discharge belt for the cut product, so that continuous processing of the cut goods can be ensured. Of course the discharge belt also allows the discharge of the cut product into containers such as 200lt (400lbs), 300lt (600lbs) carriages or big-boxes, should a discontinuous process be preferred.
    A unique feature of the GALAN 960 is that the machine offers the possibility of either separately collecting the abrasion generated during cutting in a collection box, or to discharge it with the cut product. Thus, depending on the product, the yield can be increased by up to 4%.

All 3 GALAN Modells can also be used as continues slicers, just cutting with the scimitar blades. The usually used circular balde sets can be replaced by a discharge conveyor that gets installed in the same position and is driven by the same motor as the circular blade sets. Especially cooked poultry but also raw meats can therewith be cut in slices of 3mm (1/8”) or thicker. Oprtionally the motor can be driven by a frequency converter, e.g. for separation of the individual slices.

FROZEN BLOCK GUILLOTINES

The FROMAT series includes MAGURIT gravity-feed frozen block cutter guillotines, which means that the frozen blocks slide into the cutting chamber by gravity, forced by their own weight. The blades on all models are driven by a correspondingly powerful hydraulic system, and all common block shapes and sizes can be processed, even at very low temperatures. This makes the FROMAT ideal for pre-cutting frozen blocks for further processing in bowl-cutters or grinders. The cut pieces are ideal for low condensate formation and are therefore particularly advantageous in raw sausage production. Different knife-heads are available to achieve the desired cutting result. These very robust machines work effectively for artisan- and industrial productions, with hourly outputs from 800 kg to max. 7,000 kg.

Operation, cleaning and service are self speaking easy and user-friendly.

We produce the FROMAT series in three different sizes:

The FROMAT 042, designed for standard EURO or US blocks and for hourly capacities between 800 and 1,500 kg
The FROMAT 053, designed for standard EURO or US blocks, and for hourly capacities of up to 4 tons per hour, as this machine can be fed continuously. This machine is equipped with a faster hydraulic-drive and is equipped with a block down-holder system.

The FROMAT 063 is designed for high hourly outputs and, with a cutting chamber of 300 mm height and 630 mm width, is suitable for processing standard blocks from the long side as well as any known plate freezer blocks and plates. This machine achieves an output of up to 7 tons per hour.

FROZEN BLOCK ROTATION CUTTERS

STARCUTTER / PRECUT: These are rotation frozen block cutters that are designed for high and continuous cutting performance. The MAGURIT STARCUTTER blades cut the frozen products, without damage or destruction of the cell structure of the meat. The cutting result is still of high quality, even at low processing temperatures, and is very suitable for further processing in cutter, grinder, mixer, or even thermal processes.
For the STARCUTTER and PRECUT series we offer various cutting drums, various blades for cutting thicknesses between 3 and 45mm (1/8” to 1 ¾”), and also offer cross blades integration, the so-called C-CUT knives, to achieve an even smaller cutting result.
The capacity range of the MAGURIT rotation cutters cover needs from 1.5 to/hr. up to 25to/hr.


  • The STARCUTTER 314 & 344 are single block machines, with an integrated block pusher system. With cutting dimensions of 250 x 420 x 650 mm (10” x 16 ½” x 22”), they are suitable for processing all known standard block dimensions, whether E2 or US 60 lbs. blocks, and achieve capacities of up to 4 t / h thanks to the pneumatic block pusher.
  • The STARCUTTER 318 &348 are suitable for reduction of frozen meat and other products on an industrial scale. We offer different knives with cutting thicknesses between 3 and 20 mm to choose from. With a cutting chamber size of 350 x 650 x 820 mm (14” x 22” x 41”), these frozen block cutters are designed for the parallel processing of two standard EURO or US blocks and thus achieve capacities of up to 8 t per hour.
  • For special challenges, we offer the STARCUTTER LN, which is designed for very high capacities of up to 8to/h and at the same time very low generation of noise. In addition, the STARCUTTER LN with a cutting thickness of up to 45mm (1 ¾”) offers the largest cutting result of all rotation frozen block cutters worldwide. It is recommended to use a MAGCON 862 screw conveyor for the continuous discharge of the cut product.
  • PRECUT 328 & 330: If the hourly output of the STARCUTTER series is still insufficient, or. very high volumes have to be cut within a very short time, we offer the PRECUT as the ideal solution. The PRECUT 328 with 700mm (24“) cutting width or the PRECUT 330 with even 1.400mm (55”) cutting width can be loaded with all common block sizes, or, for the PRECUT 330, also with whole pallet layers. With hourly throughputs of 15to for the PRECUT 328 and 25to for the PRECUT 330, these are the world's most powerful frozen block cutters.
