Description
The VELEC hot dog loader has been developed for the most demanding customers looking for sanitation and gentle handling of their Hot Dogs. It is an extremely versatile system and an easy to use hot dog loader.
Sanitation of the VELEC hot dog loader
The VELEC hot dog loader is placed right after your hot dog cooking process, between the hot dog peeling and its primary packing system. It's absolutely of prime importance to make sure that this area of your process is the most hygienic designed area to prevent the development of bacteria before packing Hot Dogs. Every single details of our VELEC Hot dog Loader fulfil and overpass the recommendations of the meat Industry and the best practices of the European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG).
Gentle Handling of your Hot Dogs to maximize profit ($$$)
Most of the Hot Dogs loaders currently available on the market generate a large quantity of broken hot dogs which is totally un-acceptable! Consequently, Hot Dogs Manufacturers are forced to employ people to inspect every single sausage during the packing process and to remove and replace broken Hot Dogs. So much money lost! At VELEC, we make sure that our VELEC Hot Dog Loader do handle your hot dogs with care. Right from the beginning, the hot dogs are carefully handled by an hygienic smooth belt. Then, the Hot Dogs are delivered on the cone of the centrifugal machine where it rotates and thanks to the centrifugal force, they slide by their own weight on the periphery to transfer one by one on the drum’s edge. Then the hot dogs are driven one by one behind each other on the exit conveyor, then transferred to the piano belts. Finally, the hygienic design pick and place robot gently picks and smoothly places the hot dogs in their primary package.
The most versatile Hot Dog Loader for every packing configuration
Hot Dogs Manufacturer do rarely manufacture only one type of hot dog but usually deal with a very large range where recipes, diameter, length, weight and casing vary. The VELEC hot dog Loader can load all types of hot dogs whatever the diameter, length, with or without casing (including cellulose casing). When it comes to load into the thermoforming machine, the VELEC Hot Dog Loader can place hot dogs in all direction, parallel or perpendicular to the film movement. The HMI of the VELEC Hot Dog Loader gives access to the “Recipe” menu, where Hot Dog manufacturers will define the number of pockets according to the die of the thermoforming machine, the product orientation, the number of layer per pocket, and the number of sausages per layer.
