Faced with added pressures of drought affecting the Midwest, reduced livestock herds and global economic impacts such as grain shortages, meat packers need to look at trimming operational costs wherever they can. 

The line is ideally suited for the dedicated production of hot dogs in cellulose and collagen casing, but also for dry sausages, vegan/vegetarian and meat substitute products, and the automated production of sausage products for the pet food segment.  

Featuring a 225-pound hopper with a counter-balanced safety interlocked lid, Hollymatic’s 180A provides the best in high-speed ground meat production. A stainless steel “Figure 8” mixing paddle blends fat to lean faster and easier. A minimum exposed feed screw prevents temperature rise, resulting in an evenly blended mixture that looks better longer.
