Product preparation with form pressing represents a particularly critical process step, especially when it comes to natural products such as bacon, raw ham and fresh meat. Uniform and precisely formed natural products reduce waste during the slicing process significantly and therefore maximize yield.

In particular, products such as streaky bacon, back bacon, raw ham and fresh meat can be put in the perfect form with the wePRESS 5000. Thanks to the dynamic and fully electric, servo driven, multi-axis press technology, raw materials are formed in a way that is both gentle for protein fibers, yet powerful, to enable a consistent result. Product corners and edges are fully formed, while height grows in a controlled manner until the appropriate specifications are reached – creating perfectly formed products that lead to an outstanding slicing result in the next downstream procedure.

During the development of the wePRESS, Weber place particular attention to energy efficiency and sustainability. Flexibility, operating reliability and ergonomics are standard features of the Weber wePRESS.
