The Thurne IBS4600 has established itself as the industry frontrunner slicing solution for precooked bacon processing. Four independent feeds, four independent blades, four independent cameras, combined with Thurne vision technology has forged a bacon processing revolution known the world over.

IBS4600 is the world’s first slicer to have 4 independent feeds, each with its own vision system that gives weight control of individual slices, regardless of belly size. High yields with low giveaway are the norm thanks to the precision and control that delivers constant weight portions with remarkable consistency. End user and consumer appeal is enhanced because the end product has a uniform appearance, texture and quality and can be sorted into fixed weight /fixed count packs.

Undercooking is completely eliminated further enhancing accuracy of finished, cooked slice weight. Likewise, over packing is eliminated, giveaway is greatly reduced and an extremely good return on investment is realized.

Features & Benefits

• Users are experiencing double digit percentage increases in raw slices per pound
• Achieves in excess of 7% more Grade 1 cooked slices
• High pack weight accuracy with extremely low giveaway
• Low maintenance cost
• Fast ROI
• Interface with microwave oven for consistent cooked weights
• Available for 3 lane and 4 lane operation

The Thurne one bacon slicer is a dedicated high performance slicer for turkey and belly bacon applications and provides unprecedented yield and throughput to retail and food service bacon producers.

This dedicated bacon slicer produces consistent slices day in and day out, without thick-thin slices or slivers, while providing great first time on-weight performance and low giveaway for drafts of fixed weight and slice count.

Features & Benefits

• Produces in excess of 100 retail drafts per minute
• Produces up to 140 10-slice food service sheets per minute
• Top-spec cut face vision system with fat & lean detection enables slicer on-weight percentages up to 95% as well as grading functions
• Giveaway of less than 1% for on-weight packs
• Accurate, continuous feed with compact autoloader maximises throughput
• Selection of discharge options enables optimization of retail and food service drafts
• Debris conveyor delivers trim and end pieces outside of the machine guarding
• Remote Electrical Cabinet
• Use of optional Thurne Loading Module enables buffering of up to 12 bellies

Fully Integrated Bacon Slicing Systems

Thurne supplies slicing and packing lines for the production of all common retail and food service bacon packs. As part of the Middleby Processing & Packaging Brands, we can cover all steps of the production process: from pressing and loading of bacon primals to slicing and packing drafts into thermoformed packs, with optimum performance.

You benefit from:

• A safe, balanced and effective line
• Maximum performance
• Single source supply and support
• Simplified line certification

Thurne has added a new meat portioner to its range of class-leading slicers and portioners.

The PortionX Meat Portioner was developed with high volume case ready beef and pork processing in mind, and utilises a combination of new, innovative technologies to provide significant performance improvements.

The portioner uses new product conditioning and scanning technology to ensure consistent handling of variable product and to optimise portioning performance for superb weight control and maximum yield.

Multi-dimensional active forming technology – patent pending – enhances the portioner’s ability to gently form primals of variable size. This eliminates the need for dedicated forming moulds for each primal. Only a small number of change parts is needed to handle a variety of primals within a size range, with fewer changeovers required.

Dynamic primal positioning and active product support ensure optimum product control for maximum yield and excellent laydown. The gentle blade action of the orbiting head produces high-quality, evenly cut portions – from individual and layout steaks to clearly defined shingled groups of thinner cuts such as minute steaks.

The PortionX meat portioner can be integrated into existing lines, where processors benefit from a reduction in downstream manual handling. The steaks and shingled groups produced are ready for packing with high on-weight rates, eliminating the need for manual collation and styling, and minimising rework required to achieve target pack weights.
